A will — what should you know about the condominium foreign quota and transfer paperwork?

This question is specifically about “A will”, so the answer below starts with what this case actually needs before setting out the general rules. After filing, follow up on the cycle the office states rather than waiting past the deadline. The specifics here are document type: Will, and those decide which translation and certification level applies. The terms that frame this page are know · condominium · foreign · quota. What changes the timeline most here is whether the source documents are complete on day one. What sets this case apart is the number of certified sets and the window in which they must be used. Before starting, keep a digital copy of every page, including seals and signatures, then make sure document numbers, issue dates and issuing-office names match across the set, then ask in advance which category of certified translator the destination accepts. For documents going abroad, include international shipping time in the plan. Plan the schedule with room for at least one review cycle at the receiving office. High-resolution photos of seals and signatures help when the destination asks for re-verification. Record the reference number of each certification layer; it is the fastest way to trace status. The Condominium Act B.E. 2522 as amended allows foreigners to hold units totalling not more than 49% of the aggregate unit floor area in a given condominium building, subject to the eligibility and foreign-currency evidence rules in the Act. The juristic person of the condominium issues the foreign-quota certificate and the debt-free certificate required for transfer. A sale of immovable property must be made in writing and registered with the competent official under Civil and Commercial Code s.456, otherwise it is void. A privately signed agreement or its translation cannot replace registration at the Land Office; the translation exists so the counterparty or a foreign authority can read the content. A land and succession document set must use identical terminology and name spellings throughout — the owner's name as it appears on the ID card or passport, the deed number, parcel number, map sheet and area. A single differing character can lead an officer to treat the file as a different person or a different plot and to request further evidence. ILC handles document work only — translation, certification of the translation, notarial signature certification and the legalisation run at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and embassies. ILC is not the Land Office, not a court and not an estate administrator, and cannot guarantee any authority's decision. Cost and lead time depend on page count, the language pair and the certification steps the destination requires, so every file is quoted before work starts.
