Buying property in Thailand as a foreigner
Thailand is considered as one of the most favorite tourist countries and destinations from around the world. With the pleasant climate and friendly culture, foreigners desire to live in Thailand permanently, especially in the popular provinces such as Phuket, Chiang Mai, Pattaya, etc. Expat retirees and investors prefer to find housing in such famous provinces. The most popular properties are pool villas and condominiums.
Buying and holding real estate in Thailand for foreigners is subject to the following four mandatory criteria. These are government measures in place to encourage foreigners to invest in Thailand.
1. Be wealthy foreigners
2. Be expat retirees
3. Be a foreigner who intent to work in Thailand
4. Be a foreigner who possess certain skills, can live and work in Thailand
However, there are some conditions for buying or holding real estate, including:
1. Foreigners can hold land ownership of up to one rai.
2. Foreigners acquiring land must invest no less than 40 million baht in a specified business or enterprise and retain the investment for at least 3 years.
3. Foreigners can own land in the designated area and for residential purposes only.
It can be seen that buying real estates in Thailand is not as easy as Thais for foreigners because there are many rules and conditions set by the government with the objective of stimulating the economy and attracting foreign investors including high potential and wealthy foreigners to spend money in the country.
And with such limited conditions, foreigners wishing to own a property in Thailand but do not meet the above qualifications may resort to marrying a Thai citizen or setting a Thai company in which the majority of the shareholders are of Thai nationals. However, such methods often have subsequent problems such as the division of property after divorce or being inspected by the Anti-Money Laundering Office, etc.
If you are a foreigner fascinated by the beauty of Thailand and would like to live among the friendly cultures and legally reside in Thailand, you may need a consultant providing advice to own land or housing that meets your lifestyle.
