Overview of Thai Family Law

Thai family law is primarily governed by the Thai Civil and Commercial Code (CCC). It applies to both Thai nationals and foreigners in specific circumstances, particularly when the marriage is registered in Thailand, one spouse is a Thai national, children are born or reside in Thailand, or assets or property are located in Thailand.

Foreigners living in Thailand should be aware that Thai law may apply even if one party is not Thai, especially in matters involving marriage registration, divorce proceedings, and child custody within Thailand.

Marriage Registration

Legally recognized only when registered at a District Office (Amphur)

Property Rights

Distinction between personal property and marital property is critical
