What Is A Spa Agreement Thailand Guide (2026)

A Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA) in Thailand is the binding contract that sets out the parties, the property, the price, how and when you pay, when the developer or seller must deliver transfer, what happens if either side is late, and what specifications attach to the unit. For Phuket condos, off-plan or resale, your SPA is more important than any brochure because courts and the Land Department look to its clauses if disputes arise. You should expect seven to fourteen days of lawyer review before signing, longer for complex projects, and you should never rely on oral promises that do not appear in writing.

This guide walks through essential clauses, negotiation levers, and red flags.
