Section 717: Mortgage over property divided into parts
Statutory text (Thai original)
แม้ว่าทรัพย์สินซึ่งจำนองจะแบ่งออกเป็นหลายส่วนก็ตาม ท่านว่าจำนองก็ยังคงครอบไปถึงส่วนเหล่านั้นหมดทุกส่วนด้วยกันอยู่นั่นเองถึงกระนั้นก็ดี ถ้าผู้รับจำนองยินยอมด้วย ท่านว่าจะโอนทรัพย์สินส่วนหนึ่งส่วนใดไปปลอดจากจำนองก็ให้ทำได้ แต่ความยินยอมดังว่านี้ หากมิได้จดทะเบียน ท่านว่าจะยกเอาขึ้นเป็นข้อต่อสู้แก่บุคคลภายนอกหาได้ไม่
Verbatim from the Royal Gazette / Office of the Council of State
English translation
Even though the mortgaged property is divided into several parts, the mortgage still extends to all of those parts together.
Nevertheless, if the mortgagee consents, any part of the property may be transferred free of the mortgage; but such consent, if it has not been registered, may not be set up against third persons.
