You can appoint anyone as an executor in your will, but if they are based overseas, they will need to obtain court approval in Thailand, and present translated, notarised documents.This can lead to delays. Executors should be willing, capable, and ideally familiar with Thai legal processes.
Many people choose to appoint a professional executor in Thailand who can act swiftly and in accordance with local laws and regulations. Having a local executor can significantly expedite the probate process and minimise complications related to language or document verification.
