Article 346: Gap-filling by the money-debt rules
Statutory text (Thai original)
การบังคับคดีในกรณีที่คำพิพากษาหรือคำสั่งของศาลกำหนดให้ลูกหนี้ตามคำพิพากษาส่งคืนหรือส่งมอบทรัพย์เฉพาะสิ่งแก่เจ้าหนี้ตามคำพิพากษา ถ้าบทบัญญัติในหมวดนี้มิได้กำหนดวิธีการบังคับคดีไว้โดยเฉพาะ ให้นำบทบัญญัติในหมวด ๒ การบังคับคดีในกรณีที่เป็นหนี้เงินมาใช้บังคับโดยอนุโลม
English translation
In the execution of a case where a judgment or order of the court directs the judgment debtor to return or deliver specific property to the judgment creditor, if the provisions of this Chapter do not prescribe a specific method of execution, the provisions of Chapter 2 on the execution of money debts shall apply mutatis mutandis.

Firm annotation
This provision opens Chapter 3 on execution for the return or delivery of specific property and acts as a bridge to the detailed money-debt regime in Chapter 2. Rather than repeating seizure, sale and distribution machinery, it directs that where Chapter 3 is silent the Chapter 2 rules apply mutatis mutandis. It ensures a complete procedure for delivery judgments while letting the following sections address only the features unique to specific property. It was restructured by the Civil Procedure Code Amendment Act (No. 30) B.E. 2560, which reorganised the execution provisions.
Why this matters in practice
If your judgment orders the other side to hand back a specific thing, such as a titled vehicle or a particular parcel of land, the executing officer can draw on the full money-debt toolkit where Chapter 3 has no special rule. In practice that means seizure powers and the officer's procedures still back up a delivery order. Understand which rules apply before you file for execution, because it affects fees and steps. Reviewing the judgment with a lawyer avoids delay; see what to know before you go to court in Thailand.
Foire aux questions
Comment un jugement ordonnant la restitution d'un bien spécifique est-il exécuté en Thaïlande ?
Conformément au chapitre 3 du Code de procédure civile. Lorsque le chapitre 3 ne contient aucune règle particulière, l'article 346 prévoit que les règles d'exécution des créances pécuniaires du chapitre 2, y compris les procédures de saisie, s'appliquent par analogie.
Que signifie « mutatis mutandis » dans ce contexte ?
Cela signifie que les règles relatives aux créances s'appliquent, moyennant les adaptations nécessaires en fonction du contexte. L'huissier de justice adapte ces procédures plutôt que de les appliquer à la lettre lorsque le contexte est différent.
