Get the English then have a translation service translate it into Thai. Keep both English and Thai on the Will, and you are good to go. A fraction the cost of a lawyer.

oh dear .....  this is a very sad topic and it makes me tear eyed,  seems by the responses that everyone here is in need.  Must all be very old I guess.  Hope you all enjoyed your happiness.

I hear ya and you are right,  I just keep thinking about all my dead relatives and family,  they are all gone ... I didn't get to see them in the last 10 years or more, they are all dead now and i'm the only one left. They are all gone and left me as one.

And you have a fully paid up watertight guarantee there will never be an accident causing your death, maybe next week?

It is easy to get drawn in to sadness if you dwell on the loss, rather than focus on good memories you have of those people. Despite the inevitability of death, grief (and sometimes survivors guilt) is hard to deal with.

 

Perhaps losing parents when I was 17 and 19 years old hardened me to 'boxing off' the loss of passing and concentrating on the memories. I still see funerals as a celebration of life rather than a mourning of death. 

 

The practicality of providing for loved ones makes it easier to view Will making as a living thing rather than a death thing. I have never seen it as being 'one foot in the grave'.

thanks, appreciate

Thank you, Xlophone for the recent link to an English/Thai language will.  Now, can you provide a similar link for an English/Thai language Advanced Directive, which I believe is called a Living Will in Thailand; perhaps this is asking too much.

 

In any case, again, thank you for putting  my mind at ease re: this matter.

 

P.S. I assume the will your provided is legal in Thailand without any need to consult with a lawyer.

Thanks that one worked, and already enabled for editing all the rest posted were just blank!

 

Long shot i know, but i wonder if one of these DIY wills would be acceptable in the UK ?
