I imagine it will happen eventually, just a matter of time.

Probably. The military lead government is against it though.

Yes but at this point the timing is unknowable  All we can do is guess.

 

Another obvious question that can't be answered is will they start with less than option like civil unions or go straight to marriage equality?

 

In any case it will be good  for Thailand's international brand when they start with this.

To the author if you might like a more symbolic same sex marriage here for now without legal meaning in Thailand but legal in Utah USA of all places here's a way--

Legal quirk allows gay couples in China to get married online in conservative Utah

 

At least 200 Chinese couples have married in Utah, which has no residency requirements for marriage licences and allows international Zoom weddings

 

Not long into the pandemic, Michael Foley, a radio host and licensed marriage officiant in Utah, was contacted with an unusual question: could he officiate a completely online marriage ceremony for a same-sex couple living in China?

 

Foley called the county clerk’s office in Provo, Utah, to find out. Somewhat to his surprise, the office told him that as long as the couple were of age and their identities could be verified, it was legal.
