keeniau96 Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 A properly drawn lease contract will specify the deposit and the return process. If you do not have such in writing then hope you have a receipt for the deposit and just do your best in friendly negotiation of the return. If you don't have receipt then you are SOL and at the mercy of the lessor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue is, what are the lessees rights if the landlord does not follow the agreement? I believe that under Thai law and as recently amended, the lessees rights are quite strong. In fact, I believe Thai law well protects the lessee for full recovery of any deposit within 30 days of proper termination of the lease, less any damages etc. However, I'm wondering if this indeed the case and what remedies maybe available for the lessee should the lessor start to play games?
