Delivery times from the the US to Thailand can vary between 6-7 business days for a standard or express service to 14-21 for an economy service. Generally you'll pay less for services with longer delivery times.

Moving to Thailand from the USA costs several thousand dollars upfront for flights and initial setup, with monthly living expenses ranging from $1,000 to $3,000+ USD, depending heavily on lifestyle, location (Bangkok vs. North/South), and whether you have a family, requiring savings for 6-12 months of expenses for a solid cushion. Major factors are housing, food (street food is cheap, Western dining expensive), healthcare (mandatory private insurance needed), and visa costs, but it's generally much cheaper than the U.S.
