My wife and I own a home. Of course it is in her name only. I am here on a retirement extension. If she should pass away before me. Will I be able to sell it.? We have one son who is a US Citizen and will be coming to Thailand soon. He does not have Thai citizenship yet. He does plan on obtaining it in the future. Is there anybody that has gone through this experience on how to plan for this event. I do know I cannot own land. However the plan is to pass it down to our son in the future.

Thanks in advance!

Foreign guy & Thai gal got married in Thailand bought a Thai condo paid by the guy & have both names on property deed. If divorce does thai law needs the condo to split to2 of them? What about the foreigner wealth? have to give the thai 50% ?

Hiya folks, I recall someone posting info about property inheritance when a Thai spouse passes away. The law dictates that the house goes to the THAI next of kin and NOT to the non-Thai spouse. Someone posted that it is possible to apply for a document from the local district office to ensure the spouse has permission to live in that property indefinately even though they cannot own it. Cant find that post again. Any information would be most welcome. Not interested in expensive law firms.
