oswaldcassidy Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Hi Hope you can help me I know that as a farang you cannot purchase Tor Por land , however I would like to lease land where I can farm Palm oil as well as local produce, with this in mind a thai friend has offered to lease me tor por land can I do this or is it illegal. As stated I know that I cannot own it but leasing tor por would be a much cheaper option than buying or leasing nor sor as I only want to farm on the land as a past-time.

gusgorman Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 You are correct to say you cannot own this land but then a farang cannot own land on a chaonte or indeed any title. You can lease it though yes but check the lease with a lawyer and make sure there are no restrictions of use on the land else you might tie up a deal and find it is grazing land only or something and that you will never be allowed to produce palm oil etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAZZELL Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 (edited) T.B.T 5 land is essentially "squatted" land and as such the "owner" cannot legally register ownership or lease the land or use it as security for a bank loan. Your "friend" would have registered a form of squatter's claim at the local district office for a small fee. Strictly speaking, in essence the land isn't his to lease! Why would you pay someone to farm common or forest land? However, TIT, and if it's only for farming and the amount is small, as ever "up to you" RAZZ Edited June 4, 2008 by RAZZELL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khun Jean Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 I have 7 rai land south of Hua hin. It has coconut trees on it. If you want you can use 5 rai of it. No money needed. As long as you improve the lot. Seriously! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lannarebirth Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Yes, farangs may lease land. No, land with that title is not among those types of title that may be leased. Farming is an occupation not allowed for foreigners. Whatever, you can probably give it a shot anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
