A genuine operating Thai company may own property for legitimate business purposes, but using nominee shareholders or a company created only to hold land for a foreigner can create serious legal risk. Do not accept a package structure without independent advice. Review beneficial ownership, voting, capital, business activity, accounts, tax, shareholder funding and what happens if relationships change. This is general educational information, not legal, tax or financial advice. Property structures, taxes, licences and registration practice can change or depend on the facts. Use an independent Thai lawyer and, where relevant, a qualified accountant before committing money or signing documents. The exact structure should be confirmed in writing by a qualified Thai lawyer acting for the buyer.
