home ownership

  • Can I own a property in Thailand after marriage?

    I am looking for an answer to a question I have regarding ownership of a property in Thailand. At the moment my Thai fiancé and I have a house in Issan in her name, however when we get married, is it possible as her spouse to own another property and have the house in my name and the land in hers?

    Buying and Owning a House in Thailand

    Foreign ownership of land in Thailand is generally restricted, but ownership of the land and the building standing on it can be separated. A foreign purchaser may therefore lease the land under a registered long-term lease and separately acquire ownership of the existing house or other structure. Properly structuring the building ownership can give the foreign purchaser a substantially stronger position than simply leasing both the land and the house.

    Yellow House Registration Book (Tabien Baan Thor.Ror.13)

    The Yellow House Registration Book (Tabien Baan Thor.Ror.13) is an official document issued to foreigners who are registered as residing at an address in Thailand. It records your registered residential address but is not proof of ownership of the property. Although it is not mandatory, many foreigners choose to obtain a Yellow House Book because it can make dealing with Thai government offices and other administrative procedures easier.

    What is a Tabien Baan (Thai House Book)?
    A Tabien Baan (Thai House Book) is an official address and resident registration booklet issued by the local District Office (Amphur). It records the address of a house or condominium and the persons who have their registered residence at that property. The House Book is an administrative document, not proof of ownership, but the official record of the property's registered address and its registered residents.
