Director Intelligence
Can I work in both Thailand and Hong Kong?
Yes. Many educators begin with a teaching term or summer residency in Thailand to build practical classroom hours, and then receive an executive referral for Experior Asia's full-time salaried positions in Hong Kong.
How are work visas managed for each country?
Each partner manages visas in their respective jurisdiction: Experior Asia coordinates and sponsors official employment work visas for Hong Kong positions, while KET coordinates Non-Immigrant B visas and digital work permits for positions in Thailand.
What are the salary expectations in Thailand vs. Hong Kong?
Hong Kong roles start at HKD 18,000–25,000+ per month ($2,300–$3,200 USD). Standard public and northern school roles in Thailand pay 30,000–36,000 THB net per month, while private large-city schools pay 40,000+ THB net, offset by significantly lower living expenses.
Is a Bachelor's degree mandatory for both pathways?
Yes. A physical, unlaminated Bachelor's degree in any field is legally required by both Hong Kong Immigration Department and the Thai Ministry of Labour for employment visa sponsorship.
