Why are Asian brides popular among foreign men?
- Asian brides are known for their “submissiveness”. However, this is not a 100% true stereotype because today’s Asian women are certainly not as shy and obedient as they were several decades ago—today, they’re pretty Westernized, typically ambitious, and don’t dream of becoming stay-at-home wives anymore. Still, they’re generally calmer and probably more shy than Western women, and they’re also known for their nonaggressive behavior.
- Asian mail order brides usually have more traditional, conservative values and views on things like gender roles. This, again, doesn’t mean they’re extremely obedient or dependent on their men. It’s just that they have more traditional views—they often stick to traditional ideas that the role of a woman is more caring and a man is more dominant. They’re also very feminine and expected to be the caregivers in the family.
- Some think that Asian women are exotic, and it’s another important reason why they’re so popular. Asian ladies are also well-known for their beauty: they generally look younger, have soft facial features, and usually have very high beauty standards (especially when talking about Eastern Asian countries like Korea or Japan).
- Asian women usually have powerful family bonds. Family is the most important thing for them—most Asian countries are collectivist, which implies strong family ties and close relationships with their family members.
- They’re loyal—loyalty is one of the main values and virtues of a “good wife” in most Asian cultures, and even though their men are often not so faithful, Asian women typically don’t cheat on their partners.
- There are tens of thousands of Asian brides. You won’t have any problems with finding Asian women for marriage online because there are a lot of them—the top mail bride websites have huge dating pools, they’re full of Asian ladies who speak English and dream of meeting a foreign man for a serious relationship.
- They’re usually focused on serious relationships, which is also very important for Western men who want to find a woman to build a family with. Of course, there are a lot of girls interested in casual dating in Asia, too. Still, from our experience, the percentage of those looking for a husband online is higher than in any other region.
- Asian ladies are educated, interesting to talk to, optimistic, and fun.
- They’re pretty modest and down to earth—of course, women from China or Japan have higher standards, but this statement is 100% true when we’re talking about Southeast Asian countries like the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam.
Why do Asian wives seek foreign husbands?
- In most cases, it’s all about how men from Asia and men from the West treat their women. The majority of Asian girls for marriage want to meet a foreign man simply because local men can’t or don’t want to treat them with respect. This is especially true for Southeast Asia.
- For a lot of East Asian wives, it’s about finding a man who would be interested in a serious relationship. There’s a huge problem with marriage rates in countries like Korea and Japan—local men just don’t want to marry and prefer to stay single there. This makes young local ladies interested in building a family search for foreign partners.
- They’re often tired of infidelity, cheating, and other problems that are not considered problems in their countries. That’s how it usually happens in Southeast Asia, where local men often don’t think that they should be loyal in a relationship, and the society doesn’t even consider it to be a bad thing.
- Often, they just want to live a better life in a better country. We’re not talking about the so-called gold-diggers here—we’re talking about women who live in poor Asian countries where they can’t improve their quality of life because it’s almost impossible. They want to have a better life for themselves and their future children, and that’s why they search for men from such countries as the US, Canada, or Australia.
- For some of them, it’s a cultural thing—a lot of Asian ladies are very Westernized, and a lot of them dream of living in the United States. That’s why finding a husband from this country looks like a great idea to them.
How to find an Asian bride online
1
Find a dating website.
It’s not that easy, actually, and we do not recommend picking the first site you find on Google because it’s doubtful that you can find a trusted dating app without proper research. But since you’re here, you can skip this step.
2
Join a dating site.
Just click on one of those Register or Join buttons on this page, enter your email, and it’s done.
3
Profile bio.
After that, upload a photo and answer the questions to make your profile look more attractive and detailed. Your dating profile is the most important thing at this stage, and if it looks boring or empty or has no pictures, the chances of finding a woman who would want to communicate with you are low. You need to stand out from other men on the site, so uploading at least a few high-quality pictures is a must. Writing a profile bio/description is important, too, because, from our experience, that’s the part most men skip—so with an interesting profile bio, you’ll stand out from the crowd easily.
4
Enjoy the free features.
Browse the profiles, watch the photos of the ladies, use the search filters, add the ladies you like to your favorite list, etc. Everything except for chatting and sending messages is free here.
5
Paid features.
Although this site is paid, you can chat with the girls for free here. After the registration, you’ll get 20 free credits, and you can use these credits to chat with literally any woman on this website. 1 minute of live chat costs 2 credits, so you can chat for 10 minutes with the girl you like!
6
Buy more credits.
If you’re going to build a real and serious relationship with an Asian woman here, you’ll need to continue chatting, and for that, you’ll need more than 20 credits.
7
Use original and personalized messages.
Use original, unique, and personalized messages when you reach the ladies. Of course, generic ice-breakers would work, too, but if you want to enjoy the highest reply rate, make them personalized—analyze the profiles of the girls, pay attention to their hobbies, profile descriptions, photos, and so on.
8
Use all communication tools.
Chat, exchange emails, and send and receive photos and videos. On this site, you are not limited to text messages. You can exchange media files here and even send gifts to the ladies you’re chatting with!
9
First date.
Ask the girl (or the girls) you’re chatting with for a date. Typically, men spend around 3–4 months chatting with girls before they ask them for a real date, but of course, it’s up to you.
10
Prepare for a trip.
They have different dating traditions and customs in Asian countries, and it would be a great idea to read a few expert guides on the country you’re going to visit in order not to screw up there.
Is it legal to buy an Asian bride?
Yes. Well, no, you don’t “buy” an Asian bride, of course, that’s not how it is. When you see such guides and articles, it’s just a wording issue. In reality, no one “buys” brides from other countries—it would be illegal, after all. The process is actually similar to dating someone from your country online: you chat, exchange photos, ask them for a date, meet in person, and so on.
How much are Asian brides?
Even though you don’t “buy” them, you still need to understand it’s not 100% free. Thus, you will need to pay for such things as online dating, a trip to Asia, a K-1/CR-1 visa, etc.
Let’s talk about each of these things.
- First, online dating—typically, it costs around $150-$200 per month. Most mail order bride websites today have a credit-based system, and this platform is not an exception, so the final cost depends only on you and how much time you spend there. But in most cases, $200 would be enough for a month of chatting and exchanging several photos and videos with a woman.
- Then, a trip. A flight to India costs around $700, and a flight to Japan or Korea costs around $1,000. Some countries are obviously cheaper in Asia—thus, almost every country in the Southeast Asian region would cost you around $500-$800 for a 1-week trip while you’ll need to pay at least $1,000-$1,200 for 7 days in Japan or South Korea (men usually spend at least 1 week in their bride’s country before they propose).
- And after that, the visa for your bride. The K-1 visa fee is around $2,500, but it’s not like you need to pay the whole amount at once—you’ll pay $1,100 to apply and $1,440 to get a green card for your bride. The CR-1 visa is cheaper (it costs around $1,400-$1,500).
There are at least 20 factors that can affect the final cost, from the season you’re going there to the hotel type and classification. But still, the most important factor here is the country: Japan and Korea are the most expensive countries to visit in the region. In contrast, Southeast Asian countries are typically much cheaper, and India is the cheapest of them all with their extremely cheap hotels and transportation.
Best Asian countries to find a wife
The Philippines. It’s the most popular bride country in the world, with more than 2,700 K-1 visas issued in 2023, and it’s definitely the first country you should pay attention to. Filipino women have traditional values, they’re very fun and optimistic, loyal to their partners, love Western men, and are incredibly family-oriented.
Vietnam. Vietnamese ladies are extremely friendly and open, intelligent and interesting to talk to, and also educated and hard-working. They make great wives – caring, loyal, and supportive.
India. Women in this country are very marriage-minded, and marriage is highly valued there (that’s why India has the lowest divorce rate in the world). Indian women have extremely strong family values, are loyal, respect their husbands, and are very well-mannered and feminine.
China. Chinese women speak English well, and they’re straightforward (unlike some other Asian women)—these two qualities make them very easy to approach and build a relationship with. They are tender and strong at the same time, they’re smart and interesting to talk to, and they’re also pretty humble.
South Korea. Korean girls are extremely attractive, cute, and feminine, have strong family ties, are romantic and kind, and are very committed to the relationship.
