Foreign Ownership Rules

Foreigners may own condominium units outright up to 49 % of a building's total area. Land ownership requires a Thai company structure or long-term leasehold (30 + 30 + 30 years). Our lawyers guide you through every option.

Currency & Transfer

All foreign funds must enter Thailand as foreign currency and be converted at a Thai bank. Retain the FET (Foreign Exchange Transaction) form — it is required for resale repatriation. We coordinate with your Swiss bank.
