Clive Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Good morning from the UK. I have a question for UK expats in making a will. Im presently living in the UK with 2 half Thai/British dual nationality children. I am thinking of making a will in the uk but it is our intention to move back to Thailand in 3 years time once my children have completed their GCSE exams. Looking at making a will in the UK but not sure if the will will be recognised in Thailand or will I need to make a seperate will in Thailand? Most of my assets will remain in the uk but also not sure about taxation when I eventually pass. Will there be tax to pay in both countries or would tax only be paid in one country and if so which one? Thank you so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whale Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) Need a separate will in Thailand for any assets or funds held in Thailand. If no assets then no problem. Edited July 17, 2021 by Whale added "or funds" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteBuffaloATM Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 whale is correct. you should have separate wills; uk will for uk assets to uk citizens ( your kids) thai will for thai assets to thai citizens ( wife & kids ). no crossover. no conflicts. keeps things simple. structure your assets and wills accordingly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
