INHERITANCE:
When someone dies their estate goes to their
heirs. There are 2 types.
If no will statutory heirs will inherit in the
following order:
1/. Children, parents & spouse of the
deceased- equal shares.
2/.Parents & spouse of the deceased-- spouse
gets 1/2
3/. Full brothers & full sisters ---spouse
1/2
4/. Half brothers, sisters ---- spouse 2/3rds
5/. Grandfathers, grandmothers ---- spouse 2/3rds
6/. Uncles and Aunties ----spouse 2/3rds
7/. None of the above --- spouse 100%
If an heir in a higher order exists, heirs
in the lower orders have no rights whatsoever. Probate is not required under
Thai law and trusts are not allowed under Thai law. Current law has no levy of
taxes on inheritances.
