Tenants are protected under Thai law if a landlord wants to terminate a lease or evict them before the agreed term.

Basic tenant rights include:

• The right to occupy the property for the full duration of the lease
• The right to reasonable notice (e.g., 30 days or as stated in the contract)
• The right to receive a security deposit refund (if no damage)
• The right to be free from unfair eviction
  

When can a landlord evict a tenant early?

• The tenant breaches the contract (e.g., unpaid rent, property damage, or misuse)
• The landlord has a justified urgent reason, with proper notice and legal grounds

What should tenants do if facing eviction?

• Review the lease terms regarding termination
• Request written reasons for eviction
• Keep records of rent payments and lawful occupancy
• Consult a lawyer to protect your rights
