Thailand Property Ownership

Secure, compliant property ownership for foreign buyers, from due diligence to structuring and transfer.

Overview

Understanding Thailand Property Ownership

Foreign property ownership in Thailand is governed by specific rules: foreigners may own condominium units freehold, subject to the 49% foreign quota, but generally cannot own land directly. Structures such as leasehold, company-held ownership and usufructs are used to achieve secure long-term control.

We guide international buyers through title due diligence, ownership structures, purchase agreements and transfer, ensuring your investment is legally secure and properly registered.
