A working guide to thai inheritance & probate law in Thailand
Thai Inheritance & Probate Law is treated as an evidence file, not a translation ticket. Our workflow begins with a documentary audit against the receiving authority's current rulebook — the same rulebook Thai MFA, foreign embassies in Bangkok, and Thai Immigration Bureau counters use — so acceptance criteria are baked in before any drafting starts. Every expat estates and Thai families administering probate matter is scoped by a senior specialist on LINE Official @NAATI or by email at ilc@thainotary.co.th before any file moves.
The document set most often audited on expat estates and Thai families administering probate matters here includes death certificate, will (if any), heir identity documents, asset schedule (land, bank, shares), foreign probate order (if applicable), power of attorney. Deliverables are formatted to the acceptance criteria of the Thai Civil Court probate division.
How the workflow runs end-to-end
The typical execution path is: intake → audit → certified translation → attorney jurat → MFA Chaeng Watthana submission → MFA collection → destination embassy submission → embassy collection → courier dispatch. Each checkpoint triggers a written status update on the client's chosen channel.
Who this service is for
Overseas law firms use the same intake as domestic clients but receive a bilingual case brief in English at every checkpoint, so partners in London, New York, Sydney, Hong Kong, or Frankfurt can bill and update their own end clients without needing a Thai-language intermediary on each thread.
Coverage, fees, and turnaround
Government stamps and embassy fees are paid on the client's behalf against an itemised invoice with the official government receipts attached — nothing is marked up beyond the disclosed service fee, and refunds of any unused pass-through cost are automatic at file close.
Quality assurance and confidentiality
Quality control includes an English-side legal reviewer on every matter destined for common-law jurisdictions and a civil-law reviewer on matters destined for German, French, Italian, Spanish, or Japanese authorities — terminology mismatches between legal systems are our most audited category.
