Investing in Thailandfs land and property market can be somewhat tricky for foreign developers/investors. First of all, the Land Code imposes a restriction on foreign ownership. Legally speaking, a foreign citizen, foreign entity or foreign-owned entity cannot own any immovable property in Thailand.
Of course, there are exceptions in certain circumstances, i.e. ownership in condominium, BOI promoted company, land ownership in an industrial estate and investor with Baht 40 million investment in Thailand. Use of these exceptions is complicated and ought to be advised by experienced Thai real estate attorneys.
