This is a Thai real estate lawyer drafted land and house usufruct contract (สัญญาให้สิทธิเก็บกิน). This template can be used to protect a foreign spouse or foreigner when a real estate property is registered on a Thai spouse's or partner's name. The right of usufruct is registered on the land title deed copy of the owner and the original copy as held by the local land office. It is not possible to register a right of usufruct over land that not yet has a full title deed, or a real estate property that is for example encumbered with a mortgage.
