Legal Rights for Unmarried Couples in Thailand

from Siam Legal’s Podcast · host siamlegal

More than half of Bangkok's population has never been married, and Thai law hasn't kept up with that shift. This episode covers what unmarried couples in Thailand actually stand to lose if something unexpected happens, including property they contributed to but aren't named on, inheritance that goes to statutory heirs instead of a long-term partner, and parental rights that don't exist without a formal process. Siam Legal also walks through the legal tools available to couples who aren't ready to marry but want to protect what they're building together.   𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 🔗 https://www.siam-legal.com/Thailand_Service/thailand-marriage-laws.php 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 🔗 https://www.siam-legal.com/legal_services/thailand-prenuptial-agreement.php 𝐋𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 🔗 https://www.siam-legal.com/legal_services/Legitimation-of-a-Child-in-Thailand.php 𝐃𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐋𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 🔗 https://www.siam-legal.com/legal_services/thailand-will.phphttps://www.siam-legal.com/legal_serv...    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SIAM LEGAL INTERNATIONAL (Bangkok Office) 18th Floor, Unit 1806 Two Pacific Place, 142 Sukhumvit Rd, Khlong Toei, Bangkok 10110, Thailand Phone: TH: +66 2254 8900 Email: [email protected] Website: https://www.siam-legal.com/   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Follow us across platforms: 📌Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SiamLegal/ 📌Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/siamlegal/ 📌X: https://x.com/SiamLegal 📌TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@siamlegal 📌LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/siam-legal/ 📌YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SiamLegal
