PoodThaiMaiDai Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Were you married in Thailand or your home country? or both? Just wonder if an annulment might be an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been told that until i divorce in Thailand i am still legally married in Thailand! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a link to a lawyer, but I would research more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand division of assets is far less favourable for items owned prior to marriage ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have to wait a couple of years, but don't need her in Thailand to do so. Unless you want to get married again what would be the point of rushing anyway? If you do want to get married again take it as a good thing you have an excuse not to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
