What this document is

This is the power of attorney form (หนังสือมอบอำนาจ, form T.D. 21) of the Thai Department of Lands (กรมที่ดิน) with the printed subject “โอนชำระหนี้” — transfer in settlement of debt. With it the landowner (principal) authorises another person (agent) to register at the Land Office the transfer of the plot to a creditor in payment of a debt and to give statements to the officer on their behalf.

The powers text states: any building transferred together with the land; whose debt it is — the principal’s own or another person’s; the creditor who receives the land; and the basis of the debt — a contract or a written acknowledgment of debt (หนังสือรับสภาพหนี้) — with its date. The form is meant for land with a โฉนด title deed.

Who fills it in and where it is filed

principal — the landowner named on the title deed (โฉนด) who transfers the land in settlement of the debt;
agent — the person who attends the Land Office instead of the owner;
the power of attorney is filed at the Land Office (สำนักงานที่ดิน) where the land is located, when the transfer is registered;
it is signed by the principal and two witnesses; if the agent is the creditor or represents the creditor, the form’s note requires a consent clause.

building on the plot, if any: type, storeys, number of buildings, house number;

the Thai ID number is written by hand in the boxes; signatures by hand.

What is usually attached

Frequently asked questions

What is this power of attorney for?

It lets another person register at the Land Office the transfer of the owner’s land to a creditor in settlement of a debt and give statements to the officer on the owner’s behalf.

Can someone else’s debt be settled this way?

The form provides for it: the text states that the debt is either the principal’s own (ข้าพเจ้า) or that of another named person.

Can the land be transferred together with a house?

Yes. Then “พร้อมสิ่งปลูกสร้าง” is added to the subject, and the powers text states the building type, storeys, number of buildings and house number.

What if the agent is the creditor or the creditor’s representative?

The form’s note then requires adding the clause “และยินยอมให้ผู้รับมอบอำนาจเข้าทำการแทนในนามตนเองและ/หรือเป็นตัวแทนของอีกฝ่ายหนึ่งด้วย” — consent that the agent acts both in their own name and as representative of the other party.

Which language is used?

Thai: names, addresses and land details in Thai script as on the title deed and Thai documents; years in the Buddhist Era (B.E.).

How much does registration cost and how long does it take?

The form does not say. Check fees, taxes and processing times with the Land Office where the land is located.
