The honest answer: an uncontested divorce in Thailand costs 9,900 THB in legal fees with our firm, as a fixed package. A contested divorce starts at around 70,000 THB because it involves court proceedings. Government fees are minimal for administrative divorce.

What Makes Divorce Cheap or Expensive in Thailand

Everything depends on one question: do you and your spouse agree? If both spouses agree on the divorce and its terms (property, custody, support), Thailand allows an administrative divorce at the district office (amphur), fast and inexpensive. Our 9,900 THB package covers the bilingual divorce agreement and registration guidance. If you disagree on any major term, or one spouse refuses, you need a court divorce with grounds under Thai law, lawyer time, hearings and evidence make this start at 70,000 THB and rise with complexity.

Two more cost factors worth knowing: an administrative divorce is only possible for marriages registered in Thailand and requires both spouses to appear in person, and if you have children or shared property, a well-drafted divorce agreement is what prevents far more expensive disputes later.
