Gordon ********

Hi

Nope. The purpose of the question is for data on visitor ORIGIN. If you put Dubai you deteriorate the data.

India is a fascinating country to visit and

Experience.

West coast beaches. North/East for mountains

Side trips to Nepal are a treat.

Can a foreigner lease or buy land in Ko Phangan for building a rental property?

@Jacqui ********

Sorry I’m in Udon but a BKK lawyer might be more straight forward than a locally connected one. Or they might have a local one that they deal with and can police for you.

Of course much depends on your disposable budget and local acceptance.

A nice smile is not to be underestimated.

Where is the land in question Koh P.

So get friendly with local officials for sentiment and then get a lawyer involved to cross the Tees. Almost anything is doable with local support.
