About the practice

Who advises you

Eksiam Chaisorn (เอกสยาม ชัยศร) is a Thai legal expert (นักกฎหมาย) and Member of the Thai Bar Association whose practice focuses on cross-border tax and transactions — the exact intersection where most foreign retirees in Thailand run into trouble. He advises foreign clients on retirement and LTR visas, Thai tax residency and the post-2024 remittance rules, double-tax treaties, condominium purchases and leases, marriage registration and prenuptial agreements, and Thai wills and estate administration.

Why this site exists

Thailand welcomes hundreds of thousands of foreign retirees, but the rules they live under changed sharply in recent years: the 2024 remittance-tax reform, evolving insurance requirements for O-A visas, and the expanding LTR programme. Most information online is written by visa agencies selling one product, or is simply out of date. This site is written and reviewed by a Thai legal expert and the practice's lawyer team, updated as the rules change, and every guide tells you honestly when something is proposed but not yet law.

How we work

• Plain English, in writing. Every engagement starts with a written summary of your position and a fixed quote.
• One accountable team. You deal directly with the legal expert overseeing your matter — not a call centre.
• Confidential. Lawyer–client privilege applies. Visa agencies cannot offer this.
• Cross-border by design. Your Thai plan is checked against your home-country tax treaty, not treated in isolation.
