Thai neighbor did it a year back in Chiang Mai, transferred 20 Rai of land to each of his kids 8 yrs and 6 yrs old. No tax or %, but he paid a 300Baht (total) admin fee.

cheeryble Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Mum didn't know. As she was the recipient of one of the plots of land.....which we are about to build on......one presumes she would have had to pay any transfer and would be aware of any large amounts like a normal transfer which is several % isn't it?

And if the LTO (Land Titles office) does impose a tax or a fee it's assesses by / decided by / and payable to the LTO which covers that district and which will note the ownership changes on the actual land title document (in Thai the land title is a 'chanut'), both the chanut copy held by the seller which is then passed to the buyer, and the master copy which is permenantly held at the local LTO office.

wolfmanjack Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 When we transferred land into our kids name the land office tried to charge us the same as if it was a sale. We told them our lawyer said it was supposed to be free except for the filing fee but we ended up paying 1% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Would depend on the assessed value of land in the said location. Someone posted a 1% transfer fee x assessment value, between relations.
