Old US Treaty to allow for US Citizens to own property
Old US Treaty to allow for US Citizens to own property
I have heard about an old treaty with the US that allowed for US Citizens to own property in Thailand. (Part of the appreciation of the 60's and 70's era) Does any one know if it is still valid? If so where do you go to find out about it? Any "Facts" would be appreciated.
I wouldn't have to manage my anger if people could learn to mange their stupidity!

Re: Old US Treaty to allow for US Citizens to own property
Are you talking about the Amity treaty? My understanding ( I read it many years ago) is that it is set up for business ownership but not property.SunandFun wrote:I have heard about an old treaty with the US that allowed for US Citizens to own property in Thailand.

Sorry no firm facts but perhaps a starting point

As far as I'm aware the treaty was scrapped many moons ago. Let's just say, don't hold your breath.
