Cost of Living in Bhutan for Students 2026
What it costs to live and study in Bhutan, measured against comparable destinations, with the figures that decide a student budget.
Price level, against the United States
27%
A basket of goods costing $100 in the United States costs about $27 in Bhutan, at market exchange rates. This is a whole-economy average from the World Bank (2023), not a student budget — rent near a university and a student's own habits move it a long way in both directions.
