A condominium unit title (Or Chor 2) — what should you know about restrictions on land ownership by foreigners?

The issue to settle here is “A condominium unit title (Or Chor 2)”, so it deals with the case-specific points first and the shared rules afterwards. Before starting, count the number of certified sets needed before work starts, because extra sets restart the certification steps, then verify the source document is still within any validity window the recipient applies, then check that names are spelled identically to the passport or ID card on every page. What sets this case apart is the number of certified sets and the window in which they must be used. The condition most often overlooked is that name spelling must match across every document in the set. The terms that frame this page are condominium · unit · title · Chor. The specifics here are document type: Condo, and those decide which translation and certification level applies. After certification, scan the full set before it leaves your hands. If the receiving body confirmed its requirements by email, keep that message with the file. Record the reference number of each certification layer; it is the fastest way to trace status. If multiple certified sets are needed, order them all in the first round to avoid re-queuing. Public holidays and embassy closures move certification queues more than most people expect. As a general rule a foreigner may not own land in Thailand. The Land Code sets out specific exceptions and conditions, with s.93 and s.94 addressing acquisition by a foreigner and disposal of land acquired without permission within the period fixed by the competent official. Individual situations should be reviewed with a lawyer before any decision. 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.
