monty Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Not sure what is needed for selling a property. Most likely, as often when dealing with officialdom in Thailand, it'll depend on what your local office requires. At least for certain things, the Pattaya office does not allow the standard power of attorney forms you usually can buy in a stationary shop and fill out. They have there own forms you need to use. They actually have a sample book, out of which you are allowed to take copies, with the paperwork required for whatever it is you need to do. But again, can depend on office, and the Pattaya office does have a reputation (first hand experience!) of not being an easy one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattayaPhom Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Get at land office. If its for someone that is outside of Thailand it will need to be approved at the at the Thai embassy in that country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoli Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I had a meeting with officials from Bangkok Bank to get my daughter in the US on my accounts as an "and/or" signer in case I die. She has my power of attorney. They said it could only happen is she physically flies here to sign the papers, and that Thailand does not recognize a power of attorney.

bigwilly Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) rickthailand Firstly, the Land office does have Power Attorney, but you probably don't own the land anyhow if your a ferang, if you own via Thai Co Ltd your accountant/lawyer who does your annual tax audit should be able to do transfer directors for you, depends on the name on the Title deed. Regarding the Bank, I agree your daughter must go to your branch of the Bank and be added as an and or signature on the account/s. If you die in the meantime no one can take the money or assets till your heirs have been to Court here in Thailand and obtained probate over your estate. Make sure you have a Will drafted here in Thailand to make it easier for your dependents. And yes the land office do have a standard form both PA for a house and similar PA form for selling a condo.
