Is a joint ownership while married.

It is pure paranoia, since nobody can come up one case where this have been an issue. 

From your own link: "

The foreigner is not allowed to have any form of joint ownership of land, and the land acquired throughout the marriage cannot become the marital property of the couple but can be the personal property of the Thai spouse.

The Thai spouse has the responsibility of managing personal property and can sell or do anything with the property without the consent of the partner."

I'm still waiting for one case where a husband got in trouble where he worked at his own house doing none paid work. 

 

The joint property mentioned was just used as an example for doing work on your own land, and not what wife legally can do without permission from husband. 

 

Yes, she can sell, put a mortgage, and transfer the mortgage without consent of the husband.

 

The tread purpose was my wife asking emigration, what I could do or not. I specific said today's officer said I could do anything on our property. 

 

This discussion will not end here, and will continue in another threads.

 

Thanks to the last who gave me 6 confused emotions in one minute 😄 it says smoothing about the climate here on this forum.

She should go to the Labor Office as I said earlier. Immigration (something completely different as emigration) is about visas, not about working and their opinion is as important as that from the dentist. When the police detects you are working illegally, Immigration officers will escort you out of the country. People from the Labor office decide and Labor things. Thinks the confused emoticon says more about you not wanting to listen and trying to understand. (they weren't mine btw).

You know as me, this is something which is impossible to prove, as before there will be no conclusion, no proofs, and you, me and everyone else continue doing what they has been doing. 

 

The funny thing is, there is not one case proving you can't paint your house, digging in the garden, doing plumbing or construction on your own property.

 

As said, I stay away from everything we sell. Not feeding, not cleaning, not picking etc

What are you on about? The law is very clear, you just don't want to accept it.

Confused emotions rolling in 🤗, and still nobody have one case to prove I'm wrong. Not one clear official case where a foreigner have been arrested and deported, not even one case that went to court.

 

That's strange considering how many foreigners doing maintenance on their wife's property
