Can a Married Man buy a Condo in Thailand in his own Name?

Featured Replies

I'm from the USA. I'm married to a Thai national.  We haven't registered our marriage yet in Thailand.  My wife is working on her citizenship and therefore does not want to travel to Thailand at this time.  My question is: Can I purchase a foreign quota condo in Bangkok as the sole owner without my wife on the chanote?  or are married couples obligated to purchase a condo together in Thailand?

 

Thank you,

Yes.

Your future wife would only be entitled to half if you buy in your name after you are married in Thailand 

Best to buy now just incase it all goes wrong 

Yes you can, but it would be considered a marital asset and subject to spit in a divorce etc. Name on the chanote doesn't mean much if it was purchased during marriage.
