Скачать или смотреть What Thai Law Says About Your Pre-Marriage Wealth in a Divorce

Getting married in Thailand? Congratulations! Living here offers a fantastic lifestyle, but it's vital to protect your interests by understanding the local legal framework. A little foresight can prevent major complications down the road.

Under Thai law, property is divided into two categories:
·         Sin Suan Tua: Personal property owned before the marriage.
·         Sin Somros: Marital property, which is generally anything acquired during the marriage.

Here's the critical part: Without a prenuptial agreement, a Thai court presumes that all property and assets acquired during the marriage are Sin Somros. In a divorce, this marital property must be divided equally (50/50). This can put an expat at a disadvantage, especially if they are the primary breadwinner or brought significant funds into the marriage from abroad.

A properly registered prenuptial agreement is a critical tool for legal clarity. It acts as a shield, allowing you to define which assets remain your personal property, protecting your pre-existing wealth and financial contributions. This ensures the division process is straightforward, avoiding lengthy, complex, and costly legal battles.
We hope love is forever, but it's wise to be prepared. Protect your interests and your wealth. Our dedicated, experienced English-speaking staff are here to assist you.
