Somebody has to pay the transfer tax and fees. A business tax could be imposed since the FIL "owns a few houses", depends on the circumstances. Since a foreigner is involved by marriage the foreign husband could be required to sign a form stating that he will have no future claim to the land as the property is Sin Suan Tua, Thai wife's personal property either acquired before marriage or during marriage through a will or gift.
