From my experience with a farang acquaintance, that is not the case, unless the wife is also a farang. He was married to a Thai, did not have a Thai will, and he had also been advised that his wife would automatically inherit everything. Unfortunately, that is not what happened.

Did his wife go to the Family court and wait for probate ?

Probate was done in his home country after it was ascertained there was no will for his estate, Thai or otherwise.

My Quote from my Thai Bank ''Go to Family Court" was about being in THAILAND so a THAI Family Court not one in home country. No wonder she had Problems.

If there had been a Thai will then she would go to the Family Court for Probate, but as there was NO will of any description that is not applicable. The process I described in my original post is the correct protocol if there is no Thai will

you can go on believing that if you wish, but I've seen the results of how the system works when a farang passes and there is no Thai will.

Really? And what do you base this on?

 

For instance do you know anyone that this has actually happened to?

 

My wife knows how much money we have, how much we get every month, Everything is already in her name and if she wants to do away with me she is taking a long time about it. We have known each other since 1993 and this week we celebrate our 22nd wedding anniversary.

It was a joke, however the world is a dark place, so I wouldn't be surprised if it happens quite frequently, many stories/news reports of this sort of stuff happening. 

 

And yes I know people personally who have attempted to kill others over monetary gain, fortunately these people usually aren't that bright, so it was a failed attempt.
