Answer summary
In Thailand, pet policies in condos vary widely, with some places allowing pets and others strictly prohibiting them. It's essential to inquire about pet rules directly with the condo management when considering purchasing or renting. Many expats suggest renting a pet-friendly unit first to gauge the local environment and policies before committing to a purchase. Additionally, while some newer condo buildings have adopted more pet-friendly policies to attract residents, it's important to remain aware that rules can change frequently. Many experienced expats recommend seeking neighborhoods that are known to be pet-friendly and highlighting the potential need for a pet through documentation if necessary.

All these people trying to be fear mongers.

There are many extremely nice condo buildings that will allow dogs..

You're probably going to have to pay more. But you can get high quality units that will allow animals

Ashton residence 41

The strand

The monument

Some of the ideo Buildings

Also a lot of the older condo buildings have transitioned to pet friendly places in order to boost their yearly revenue

You'll have plenty of options..

This is " the strand"

Pet friendly and beautiful

I've lived here for 8 years and believe me many of us have dogs.

Or you can start seeing a therapist now to establish history and talk about how much your pet helps you. Comforts you. Then, when you apply to thr confi, have your therapist write a letter.attesting to thr fact that they've been your therapist since x date and that in their professional opinion, the pet is needed for your welfare.

The sensible thing to do would be to ask the condo you're planning on buying or renting. It doesn't matter what anyone here says because it's up to the condo management.

I believe owners know some people don’t care for dogs and cats in same building where as in West, you see them even in restaurants. SMH

Each condo is separate, so there is no yes you can or no you cannot, you really need to ask the pet question when you look at places, in regards to how strict they enforce rules this again is down to each condo manager, also do be aware that in Thailand rules are always subject to change as often as the hours in the day, so even if you buy a place that says yes if the management changes so could the rules, so please take this in to consideration, honestly unless you have already spent months at a time in Thailand and know exactly where you want to buy I would say get a couple of 3 or 6 month rentals done first because the nature of Thailand being tourist spot means a quiet condo/area one month maybe party central the next, and also with all of the VISA and banking changes going on many people are considering leaving, so prices may come down, but if lots of retired people do leave then this would have a big knock on effect in regards to shops and services too
