I have a question about the investment visa that I cannot figure out the answer to online, so would appreciate anyone that has knowledge.

My wife and I have THB14M invested in 3 condos that are in joint names. We currently live in Hong Kong.

Can one or both of us apply for the investment visa, or should we have put all the properties in one name, and the other person applies for the dependant visa that can hang off the person who gets the investment visa?

Many thanks to anyone who may know the answer to this.

I’m looking at leasing or buying land in Ko Phangan with an existing bungalow, with the view to build 2 more and rent out.

Some questions :-

1) I understood I can lease and form a company but I have now read that Thai gov changed the law in October 2022 and I can own the land?

2) are there surveyors that can check the existing structure

3) any recommendations for an English speaking lawyer in Ko Phangan

4) any builder recommendations?

All other thoughts appreciated! I do property rental in the UK so I’m not a newbie but of course it’s very different here!

Thanks 🙏
