So just to confirm what everyone is saying above, even if an expat has no assets in Thailand except for the 800,000k in a Thai bank required by immigration, it's still best to have a separate will drawn up by a Thai lawyer and give to your executor back in the home country?
Even with say the help of his Embassy the home country executor for say Mr. Expat Smith, has no ability to access the 800k in the account in Mr. Expat Smith's name at the Thai bank because that account is in Thailand. ?
Even being single with no Thai beneficiaries?
Come to think of it, I can't remember when I set up the 800k bank account whether there was a beneficiary form.
0 in bank for at least 3 months past renewal. Prove Jomtien w/ bank book I had to do this last year unless my memory is failing me so I believe it's still in effect this year for non-immigration type O .
