Frequently Asked

Questions Families Often Ask

How long does the probate process take in Thailand?

Thai probate timelines depend on the complexity of the estate, the number of beneficiaries, and whether any contested claims arise. Straightforward matters with complete documentation may conclude within three to six months. Estates involving agricultural land, business interests, or absent beneficiaries typically require longer. We provide a realistic estimate at the outset of each engagement.

Which documents will be needed to begin?

Requirements vary by service. For probate assistance, you will generally need the deceased's original Thai ID card or passport, a death certificate (obtained from the local district office), any existing will, and identification documents for family members who will be involved in the process. We provide a full checklist specific to your matter at the initial consultation stage.

Can the service assist with estates that include beneficiaries living abroad?

Yes. Our Beneficiary Notification and Coordination service is designed specifically for situations where one or more beneficiaries are located outside Thailand. We handle the formal notification, manage the additional documentary requirements that apply to international beneficiaries, and coordinate directly with them to keep the distribution process on track.

What does long-term estate administration involve?

This service covers estates that cannot be distributed quickly — for instance, where the estate includes active agricultural land, a business that must continue operating, or beneficiaries who are minors and whose entitlements must be held under appropriate legal arrangements until they reach the age of majority. We assume full administrative responsibility and provide written reports to family representatives at regular intervals throughout the process.

Are there government fees in addition to the service fee?

Yes. Court filing fees and official registration charges are assessed separately by the relevant Thai authorities and are not included in our service fees. We will explain all expected disbursements clearly before work begins so there are no unexpected costs.

How do I begin, and what does an initial consultation involve?

You may reach us by phone or by submitting the contact form on this page. An initial consultation involves a review of the estate's basic details, a discussion of the relevant process and what it requires of family members, and an explanation of our fees. The consultation carries no commitment to proceed.
