How do I make a Will Thailand

Abroad Funerals Pattaya takes the worry and stress out

You need a Will Testament in Thailand.

As without one it can become a real issue for those left to arrange everything.

Making a Will is easy and not expensive. However for some reason more than half of people do not have one. It doesn’t matter how old you are or your health as things happen and unexpectedly too.

Most don’t understand the words I have used above let alone their how they work in a legal World.

Will Testament and the Law

Thai888 Law has designed a checklist for you so that you can understand who else is involved in your Will Testament. Of course there is you (Testator), what do you own (assets or estate (including your body), who you want to leave certain things to (Beneficiaries), who to contact (Next of Kin NOK) and who you want to manage everything after you die (Executor) as they need to take the matter to court (Probate).

Thai Language

Most documents are in Thai Language and most times these need to be translated. Sometimes, if documents need to be used in another country this needs to be done at a Consulate and then signed off by the Minister of Foreign Affairs. All Wills and the Executor must go to court to be given a court order (Grant of Probate) and with this document you can close bank accounts, sell/transfer land condo or house, transfer car or motorbike, send money overseas, collect insurance.

Free Will Checklist

This is just the beginning and helpful in knowing what documents and information you need to give us so we can write up your Will Testament for Thailand. Abroad Funerals and Thai888 Law offer your Will Testament in Thai and English and 2 copies with all of your information, possessions, family and friends contacts inside

Thai888 Law Pattaya presentation on Living Wills at the Pattaya City Expats Club

Thank you PCEC for asking me to present information on Living WIlls and thank you Ren for interviewing me and keeping the pace.

Living Wills are legal in Thailand under the CCC Health Act and should be used when you are able to make one – ie competent enough to decide this is your future wish to not be resuscitated or left hooked up to several machines in a hospital.

Prolonging life under terminal illness or when brain dead is something that can be avoided if you have a Living Will in place.

Please consider it as should you make it yourself it is free. Yes Free.

Thai888 Law will always be there to assist you in every aspect of Law in Thailand. Enjoy the video and contact me if you want more info@thai888.com

 

Japanese tourist dies in Pattaya Thai888 Law

An elderly gentleman died in his hotel room in Pattaya and when staff discovered this they contact his insurance company that then rang Thai888 Law.

I took the call as they preferred to speak English.

They requested a simple cremation as there was a small budget to be paid out through the insurance.

The deceased son flew out and I met him at his hotel in Pattaya.

Via a Samsung smart phone on Google translate we were able to make plans and carry them out to make sure his father was properly cremated and the ashes returned to Japan for a proper ceremony.

Thai888 Law staff did everything from collecting the body and the death certificate from Bangkok, to transferring the body to the temple for cremation. Water, flowers, coffin, urn were all supplied.

Only 6 people attended and all of these things were done through the smart phone.

Amazing.

Of course all this was done with the help of the family, girl friends, wives and friends.

 

 

 

 

One of the brothers made a special thank you  over the mic to Thai888 about the seamless way in which we made everything come together. The family flew in made a few calls and we did the rest.

BTW our CEO is an Australian and so there are no language issues. In fact he receives many inquiries from all around the World and works mainly on international probate issues.

If you have never experienced probate then you are fortunate as it can be a very lengthy, frustrating, stressful  event. That is why Thai888 Law has 2 offices creating a one stop office to handle all your needs and issues.

Many times clients make a few calls and we do everything from start to finish, as some relatives are old or sick or to tied up in their work to travel to Thailand. On top of that they don’t know the language and will need our services for law and translation anyway. This is why we have built a solid reputation for dealing with all these issues. A few calls and all is done.
