    Land sold "twice over"!

    in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership

    Posted

    The person who owns the land is the person whose name is on the title deed (assuming this is not agricultural land in a village which has no issued title deed). If your name is not on the title deed, then you don't own the land.

     

    I understand you have a have a Bill of Sale, but in terms of ownership, this is worth very little. In law, if the original, undivided land was correctly transferred to another person after you paid for the land, then you are in a very difficult situation, as ownership will pass to the person whose name is now on the chanote, and you will have to file a civil claim against the original owner who sold you the land. If that person is deceased or they now have no assets, you will spend considerable time in Court paying to resolve the situation, and you will not receive any compensation if the seller has no assets.

     

    You will also be in a difficult situation if the land has been divided and sold on to someone other than you. Any other legally registered mortgage, sale with the right of redemption, usufruct or other encumbrance will also create problems for your claim of ownership.

     

    You really need to go to the Land Office tomorrow and get a copy of the chanote to this parcel of land. I also urge you to get the situation regularised as a matter of priority.

    Condo and Transfer to Thai Wife on my Death

    in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership

    Posted

    No problem for your wife to have the condo transferred into her name. There is no restriction on the quantity of condos a Thai citizen can hold.

     

    The non-Thai quota of 49 per cent ownership per condo block only becomes an issue if the entire 49 per cent of the foreign quota is used and there is no quota left for a potential non-Thai buyer.

     

    This situation can arise, but it is quite rare. I've never yet come across an entirely full quota, not least because some foreign owners are persuaded to buy in a company name.

     

    You can always ask in your management office what the ratio of Thai to non-Thai ownership is. The Juristic Person must know the figure exactly as they have to prepare quota letters for the Land Department.

    Does Thai law require salaries to be paid monthly?

    Moreover, they refuse to issue the tax form needed to file. The tax year ended with the calendar year. But they say, the business's year matters and we will file your return. - Sorry, I need to stay on top of this and get the tax return  f i l e d first in order to get a refund.

     

    You don't need any documents from your employer to file your tax return. You do it yourself, online. The entire online process, however, is in Thai.

     

    All you need to know is your gross/net salary for the year, and the income tax you paid. Total social fund paid would also be helpful ad there is a deduction for this.

    Gutted is the right word. It's been taken back to the shell.

    Don't forget Scruffy Murphys (new name for the Queen Vic) just across the road. I accept there is no view from Scruffys, but you can get some respite there.
