But what happens to these assets when you pass away? If you die without a Will in Thailand, the law decides who gets your things. This process can be long, costly, and stressful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Thai Will avoids all of this. It ensures your wishes are followed, reduces conflict, and helps your heirs avoid delays in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/glossary\/probate\/\">probate<\/a> court. Whether you want to leave a condo in View Talay to your partner, savings in a Thai bank account to your children, or personal belongings to a friend, a Will ensures it\u2019s done properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"whats-included-in-our-service\">What\u2019s Included in Our Service<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you draft a Will with ThaiLawOnline, we draft it in the ordinary written form under Section 1656 of the Thai <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/glossary\/thai-civil-and-commercial-code\/\">Civil and Commercial Code<\/a>, which is one of the forms that Section 1655 requires a will to take. Our service offers bilingual drafting in English and Thai. We list all your Thai assets, like condos, cars, and bank accounts. We also help with appointing an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/glossary\/estate-administrator\/\">executor<\/a> and choosing witnesses. Choosing them matters more than most people expect: under Section 1653 a witness cannot take anything under the will, and nor can the spouse of a witness, so a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/glossary\/gift\/\">gift<\/a> to a beneficiary who signs as a witness fails. Under Section 1670 a witness must also have reached majority, must not be of unsound mind or adjudged quasi-incompetent, and must not be deaf, dumb or blind in both eyes. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/glossary\/notary\/\">Notarization<\/a> or video documentation is available if you want it.

diverse. They include retirees with long-term visas. We also have digital nomads who own assets in Thailand. Additionally, we serve expats who are married to Thai citizens. Whether you live in Central Pattaya or up in Huay Yai, we provide fast and accurate support without the need to visit our office. If you already have a Will from your home country, we can review and adjust it to comply with Thai law. If you\u2019re just getting started, we\u2019ll explain every step in clear, simple language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also learn more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/last-will-in-thailand\/\">Wills in Thailand here<\/a> if you\u2019re exploring options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"real-cases-weve-helped\">Typical Situations We Help With<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A retired husband in East Pattaya wants his condo to go to his Thai wife. Without a will, if he has no children and his parents have died, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/glossary\/intestacy\/\">Thai intestacy rules<\/a> give his wife only half and his brothers and sisters the other half (Civil and Commercial Code sections 1629 and 1635). A couple running a guesthouse in Jomtien makes matching wills to divide their business and personal assets. A remote worker with crypto assets and Thai bank accounts needs a will that includes instructions for the digital assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dying-without-a-will-in-thailand\">Dying Without a Will in Thailand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you pass away without a Will, your assets are divided based on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/glossary\/classes-of-heirs\/\">Thai legal hierarchy<\/a>. Your foreign heirs may face difficulty accessing your bank accounts or transferring property. The process often involves court approval, certified translations, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/glossary\/legalization-of-documents\/\">legalized documents<\/a> from your home country. With a Will in place, these issues are avoided or significantly reduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"our-process\">Our Process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start by contacting us via email, Line, or phone. We\u2019ll send a short intake form to collect the right information. Once we have the details, we draft your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/last-will-in-thailand\/\">Will in both English and Thai<\/a>. You review it, and we make any changes you request. When ready, we send you signing instructions with witness guidance, including the two rules that most often spoil a Thai will: you must sign before at least two witnesses who are present at the same time and who then sign there and then certifying your signature (Section 1656), and neither a witness nor the spouse of a witness may be a beneficiary (Section 1653). You can also request notarization or certified copies. Everything can be done online, with no need to travel or deal with complicated paperwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pricing-table\">Pricing Table<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Service<\/th><th>Description<\/th><th>Price (THB)<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Thai Will (Bilingual)<\/td><td>Custom English-Thai Will<\/td><td>3,900<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Notarized Will<\/td><td>Includes notarization and formatting<\/td><td>+ 950 baht.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Certified Copies<\/td><td>Optional for embassies, banks<\/td><td>500\/copy<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We focus on affordable, professional service that meets real needs.

This helps avoid legal issues.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1746531067427\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><strong>Do I need to register my Will?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>No. Registration is optional. A Will you sign in front of two witnesses is valid under Civil and Commercial Code Section 1656 without ever going near a government office, and that is the Will we draft for you.<\/p>\n<p>If you do want the district office route instead, it changed. The Ministerial Regulation on the Making of Wills B.E. 2569 has been in force since <strong>24 March 2026<\/strong> and replaced the earlier rules, including the 1960 regulation. You can now use any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/glossary\/amphoe-or-amphur-district-office\/\">amphur<\/a> or khet office, including any of the Pattaya and Banglamung offices, rather than only the one holding your house registration. The fee is <strong>250 baht<\/strong>, up from 50, and a duplicate counterpart of the will is <strong>50 baht<\/strong>, up from 10. Your two witnesses must be present and sign in front of the officer, who reads the will back to you and the witnesses before you all sign (CCC section 1658). You may ask to take the original away with you, and the office then keeps a certified duplicate instead. It is a change of procedure only, so it does not affect who inherits.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1746531077945\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><strong>Can I leave assets to a Thai partner if we\u2019re not married?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Yes, but you must clearly name that person in your Will.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1746531092354\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><strong>Where should I store the document?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>You can store it at home, with a trusted person, or request that we hold a copy for you. We have a storage service available at 1,000 baht additional for lifetime.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why Choose ThaiLawOnline<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019ve been helping expats in Thailand since 2006.

The will provisions of the Civil and Commercial Code were read in Thai and in English for this review: Sections 1653, 1655, 1656, 1657, 1658, 1660 and 1670. Two things were corrected. The service description attributed the will we draft to the wrong section. Section 1655 says only that a will must take one of the forms prescribed in that chapter; the form actually used here is the ordinary written will under Section 1656, which this page already cited correctly further down. And the page mentioned witness guidance twice without stating the rule that decides whether a gift survives: under Section 1653 neither a witness nor the spouse of a witness can take under the will. Both signing rules are now stated where the client signs. <strong>What this review does not cover, said rather than implied.<\/strong> The account of the Ministerial Regulation on the Making of Wills B.E. 2569, including the 24 March 2026 commencement and the 250 and 50 baht fees, was checked against this firm&#8217;s own verified record of the Royal Gazette citation and left exactly as written; it was not re-verified against the Gazette here. Whether and how a foreign beneficiary may take a condominium unit by will is governed by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/glossary\/condominium-act\/\">Condominium Act<\/a> and is unsettled in our own working notes, so nothing on this page was certified about it. The Pattaya service description, the illustrative situations and every price are commercial statements, not legal ones, and were not verified here.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019re an expat living in Pattaya or you own property or assets here, writing a valid last will in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":11499,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":"","tlo_reviewed_on":"","tlo_reviewed_by":"","tlo_edited_by":"","tlo_changelog":"[{\"date\":\"2026-11-02\",\"note\":\"Added the statute box with Thai, English and French text and checked the page against the official text\"}]","tlo_authority_on":"1","tlo_box_sections":"","tlo_box_cases":"","rank_math_focus_keyword":"last will pattaya","rank_math_title":"Last Will in Pattaya: Thai Wills for Foreign Residents","rank_math_description":"Make a valid Thai will in Pattaya covering property, bank accounts and vehicles in Thailand.
