ThaiLawOnline Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I am not sure if I am posting this regulation under the good forum, but living Wills are probably part of some family matters and foreigners living in Thailand should know about them. Living Wills were recognized under Thai Law by the Health Act of 2007. The law refers to a regulation and we were waiting for it. Now, we have the regulation and we did a translation in English. The regulation for Living Wills in Thailand was signed on October 6th 2010 by the Prime minister of Thailand. It was published on 22nd October 2010 in the Government Gazette. According to clause 1 off that regulation, it will be applicable 210 days after the publication in the Governmental Gazette, so around mid June 2011. You will find the regulation in Thai here: http://www.thailawonline.com/images/documents/Living%20Wills%20in%20Thailand%20-%20Regulation%20in%20Thai.pdf Our translation in English here: http://thailawonline.com/images/documents/living_will_regulation_%28Thailand%29_English_by_Isaan_Lawyers.pdf For more information about Living Wills, there is a link here: http://thailawonline.com/en/family/living-wills-in-thailand.html For any clients that previously did a living Will with Isaan Lawyers, if it needs to be adjusted following this new regulation, Isaan Lawyers will do the modifications free of charge. For instance, the address of the witness and writer of the Living Will must be mentionned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMA_FARANG Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Unfortunately neither of the first 2 links work but the link to your site does. I was able to load the link to the English translation just now...although it did take some time before it finally showed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billd766 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I just tried again with the same results. It just says done at the bottom but there is no download. I am using Firefox so that may be a problem though there aren't many pages like that for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiLawOnline Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 The links work fine with me, and i just tried with 2 different computers and mobile application. They are files in PDF. Maybe your computer doesn't support it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
