Land & Property

Title deeds, land-parcel checks and property transfer.


Land is the most valuable asset many Thai families hold, and the one where mistakes cost the most. Thai land documents come in several types conferring very different rights — from a full title deed down to certificates that grant only a right of use and restrict transfer. Knowing which document is actually in play is the first thing to establish.

Land transactions in Thailand remain a persistent target for fraud — forged deeds, people purporting to sell land they do not own, and deposits taken by someone who then disappears. The Department of Lands’ online tools support a first check, but they do not replace verifying at the land office before any money changes hands, a step that should never be skipped.
