Let’s be honest. A lot of guys travel to Thailand in hopes of finding a Thai girlfriend. And even more go simply wanting to date Thai girls in order to experience the local culture and–of course–uhh, try new things.

Whatever the case, we aren’t judging.

Online dating apps have changed the game. Now meeting people of the opposite sex in a foreign country has never been easier. And, to be frank, we love the idea of people from different cultures getting together and mingling however they please.

That said, the dating app scene in Thailand has become heavily saturated and is constantly changing. That’s why it’s important to know which apps are currently the most popular in Thailand and–on top of that–which will be most likely to land you a date with a beautiful Thai girl.

So without further ado, here’s the lowdown on the best dating apps in Thailand right now:

1. Tinder

Let’s kick things off with the OG: Tinder. It’s the dating app that started it all, and guess what? It still reigns supreme. In Thailand, Tinder is still the most used dating app and is probably the most likely app for finding a date in Thailand if you are on limited time and looking for something a bit more casual.

Pros: The most popular dating app in Thailand. So options will be practically limitless. More aimed at hook-ups (if that’s your kind of thing).

Cons: Age skews to the younger side. Depending on your age, that could be a turn off. More aimed at hook-ups (if that isn’t your kind of thing).

2. Bumble

As guys, we love the fact that Bumble makes women message first, turning us into the hunted and not the hunter for once. On top of that, Bumble in Thailand ranks second in most active users right behind Tinder. So finding a Thai date shouldn’t be very hard.

Pros: Women must message first. Age skews a bit higher and expectations are more focused on long-term relationships when compared to Tinder. Lots of users.

Cons: Not as many users as Tinder in Thailand. More expensive than Tinder for paid versions of the app.

3. Tantan

Just behind Tinder and Bumble in terms of users is Tantan, the most popular Chinese dating app. This app has really surged in users in Thailand in recent years, becoming one of the best Thailand dating apps overnight. In general, Thai girls using this app are searching for foreigners from other Asian countries such as China, Japan, and Korea. But users from Western countries can also have solid success on Tantan.

Pros: Large user base. Fair pricing for paid plans. Good for Asian guys looking to date Thai girls.

Cons: Decent amount of scams, fake profiles, and working girls.

4. Thai Friendly

Compared to the top three dating apps in this list, Thai Friendly can’t really match up. It has a super outdated user interface and message limits for free plans. But, with that said, it definitely still has a place in the Thai online dating scene. On Thai Friendly, guys can search through thousands of Thai girls who are online right then. Unlike girls on Tinder or Bumble in Thailand, these girls can be a bit more conservative (many are from the countryside). Women in search of marriage or–in some cases–a sugar daddy are common on this site.

Pros: Easy to find a Thai girlfriend–especially if you don’t mind supporting them financially. Can find a Thai wife.

Cons: Horrendous UI. Annoying message limits for free users. Can’t send messages to the most popular girls if you don’t pay. Many gold diggers. Guys message bomb the most attractive/popular users.

Bonus: Seeking Arrangements

Alright, let’s address the elephant in the room–Seeking (formerly Seeking Arrangements). This dating app/website allows Thai women to find sugar daddies who are willing to give them money or buy nice things for them in exchange for dates or a relationship. It’s like regular dating but with a financial incentive. Thai women who appreciate the finer things in life? Check. Guys who can provide those things? Double-check. If this is your type of thing, more power to you.

Pros: Extremely easy to find dates, etc., for those who have money.

Cons: Need deep pockets. Less romantic, more transactional.

Final Thoughts on Thailand Dating Apps

Dating apps have made finding and dating a Thai girl easier than ever. With the four apps mentioned above, there’s no stopping you.

Want a girlfriend for your Thai holiday? No problem. Want a Thai wife? Again, doable. Want a casual meet-up for dinner and drinks at a sky bar in Bangkok? It’s right within your grasp.

Just don’t forget to learn a bit of Thai before your big date. It’ll go a long way!
