Buying land by a Thai national married to a foreigner
In the case where a Thai national who has a foreign legitimate spouse applies for permission to purchase land or accept a transfer of land in a similar case during marriage or cohabitation as husband and wife with a foreigner, as the case may be, if after the inquiry the applicant and the foreign spouse have given a joint written confirmation that the money which that Thai national will expend on the purchase of the land is wholly the separate property of that Thai national and not the community property or joint acquired property, the competent official will proceed with the registration of rights and juristic act.
In the case where a Thai national whose spouse is a foreigner intends to purchase land or condominium unit but fail to give a joint written confirmation to the competent official as the spouse is being abroad, in this instance, the foreign spouse shall make the statement declaring in written at the Royal Thai Embassy, Royal Thai Consulate or Notary Public that the money which that Thai national will expend on the purchase of the land or condominium unit is wholly the separate property of that Thai national and not the community property or property which the foreign spouse has co-ownership in it. The competent official shall declare that the foreigner is an actual spouse of the Thai national and then submit to the competent land official who will proceed with the registration of rights and juristic act.
