About

Moving countries is mostly paperwork. It shouldn't feel lonely.

Calm Abroad is for people making a life in Thailand, not passing through. It keeps the paperwork in order, and keeps the story of how you came to feel at home.

What it does

  • Your move, in orderFrom "could I?" to your first 90-day report, one step at a time.
  • Every date keptReports, renewals, tax days: reminded before they're due.
  • Your documentsPassport, visa, TM30 receipt, in one private place.
  • People hereYour class, and people a few months ahead of you.
  • Your storyThe firsts, the places, and a window for the people at home.

How we keep it current

  • Guides

    A checked date on every guide, the official sources linked under our summary, and a nightly flag on anything over 90 days old.

  • Rule changes

    Pulse logs each change with its date and source, and tells you when one applies to you.

  • Prices

    Sourced, dated ranges, never a single made-up number. Where we have no check, we ask for yours.

  • Places

    A place shows "checked" only if someone really checked it, with the day and what against.

Four promises

Promise 1Never behind a paywall

Visa, tax and safety information is free, always. Plus is for looks and extras, never for what you need to know.

Promise 2Dated and sourced

Every guide shows when it was last checked and links the official source. A guide not checked in 90 days is flagged to us every night.

Promise 3Aurora explains, she doesn't invent

Her answers come from the guides and the rules for your visa, are labelled as AI, and show where they came from.

Promise 4Your data is yours

Export everything or delete your account whenever you like. We never sell it.

Three kinds of answer

Labelled everywhere, because mixing them up is how people arrive at immigration with the wrong papers.

Official information

The rule itself, with a link to the Thai authority and the date we last checked it.

Community opinion

What other foreigners recommend. Useful, subjective, and never a substitute for the rule.

AI explanation

Aurora's reading of the sourced guides, for your situation. She says so when she isn't sure.

Questions people ask before they sign up

Short answers, honest ones. If yours isn't here, ask Aurora.

Is it free?

Yes. Every guide, every date, your documents, Journey, Story, Map and Mirror. Visa, tax and safety information is never behind a paywall. Plus, when it opens, adds extras on top; it never holds back what you need to know.

Is this legal advice?

No. It's general guidance with its sources. Confirm anything that matters with immigration or a qualified professional.

Where does the information come from?

Government sources, linked under every guide, with the day we last checked them. A guide not checked in 90 days is flagged to us every night.

Who sees my documents?

Only you, in the app. They're stored privately under your account and never sent to AI: you type in the dates your reminders need.

Is Aurora a person?

No. Aurora is our AI guide. She explains the rules for your situation, shows where her answer came from and is always labelled AI.

Can I leave and take my data?

Yes. Export everything, or delete your account and everything in it, from Profile.

Why only Thailand?

Depth in one country beats a thin page for every country. Thailand comes first.

General guidance, not advice

Nothing here is legal, immigration, tax or financial advice. Use it to understand where you stand and ask better questions, then confirm anything that matters with the authority or a qualified professional.
