Legal Excellence. Strategic Insight. Sustainable Value. Thailand has long been a magnet for international investors, drawn by its tropical beauty, vibrant culture, and promising real estate market. Yet for foreign buyers, the path to owning property in the Kingdom is not always straightforward. The legal framework, while sophisticated, presents unique challenges that require expert navigation. This is where Thanee Estate & Law steps in. With a distinguished track record spanning over two decades, the firm has established itself as a trusted partner for foreign investors seeking secure, compliant, and strategic solutions in Thailand’s property market. A Legacy of Trust and Expertise Founded in 2003, Thanee Estate & Law has built a reputation for delivering practical, commercially sound legal advice across residential and commercial sectors. The firm operates from its headquarters in the heart of Bangkok, with additional offices in Krabi‘s Ao Nang, and soon in the prestigious Somerset Thonglor district. What sets Thanee Estate & Law apart is the combination of deep local expertise with a genuinely international perspective. Khun Thanee and the team understand the aspirations of foreign investors intimately—because they’ve been guiding them for over twenty years. As a licensed Notary Public, Khun Thanee holds the legal authority to notarise documents for use both within Thailand and internationally, adding an essential layer of security and convenience for cross-border transactions. Comprehensive Legal Solutions for Foreign Investors Foreign Property Ownership Navigating Thailand’s land ownership restrictions requires more than just legal knowledge—it demands creative, compliant structuring. Thanee Estate & Law provides expert guidance on a full range of ownership solutions, including: Land Code Section 96 Bis – Enabling 100% foreign ownership in specific circumstances Long-term Leasehold – Structuring secure, renewable lease agreements for land and property Sap-Ing-Sith (SIS) – A unique and highly beneficial right of possession granted by Thai law Sometimes called the “Blue Garuda” right, Sap-Ing-Sith gives the holder the right to use and benefit from immovable property—land, houses, and even condo units—for up to 30 years. Unlike a simple lease, it is registered at the Land Office, transferable without the owner’s consent, inheritable by heirs, and potentially mortgageable. As enforcement against nominee structures intensifies in 2026, more international buyers now treat it as a serious, lawful alternative to grey-area arrangements that once dominated the market. Usufruct Rights – Providing lifetime rights of use and enjoyment Board of Investment (BOI) Promotions – Unlocking ownership privileges for qualifying investments Joint Venture (JV) Structures – Creating compliant partnerships with Thai entities Hospitality and Luxury Property Investment With extensive experience handling complex, high-value transactions involving hotels, resorts, and large-scale property developments, the firm is uniquely positioned to advise on mergers and acquisitions in the hospitality sector, as well as investments in high-end pool villas and beachfront land.
