The building’s juristic rules and the unit owner are two separate permissions — both must agree, in writing, before you sign. For the renter’s playbook see the Thailand pet-friendly condos and rentals guide. For every Bangkok building whose policy we have already sourced, use the Bangkok pet-friendly condo directory.
Bangkok will cap pets by the size of your home
Separate from any building’s own rule, Bangkok will limit how many animals may be kept in a home by floor area, under the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration Ordinance on Animal Keeping and Release Control B.E. 2567, postponed by the city council and now due to take effect on 10 January 2027. This applies whatever your building, your juristic office or your landlord allows — a pet-friendly building cannot put you above the city’s limit.
- 20–80 sq m: one dog or cat
- Over 80 sq m: up to 2 dogs or cats
Homes below 20 sq m are not addressed by the published bands. That is not the same as a ban — ask your district office before assuming either way.
What owners have to do:
- Register each dog and cat with the district office — within 120 days of birth, or within 30 days of bringing the animal into the city.
- Microchipping is compulsory and must be done by a licensed veterinarian.
- Households already over the new limit may keep their animals if they notify their district office. The original notification date, 9 April 2026, was set for the earlier start; BAANLYY has not found a revised date, so ask your district office.
- Dogs must be leashed and tagged in public; breeds the ordinance treats as dangerous must be muzzled and walked by someone aged between 10 and 65.
- The BMA offers registration, microchipping, vaccination and sterilisation free at municipal veterinary clinics.

Before you book anything
The timing, not the paperwork, is what makes or breaks a pet move to Bangkok. Microchip, then rabies vaccination, then — for many countries — a blood test with a waiting period, then the DLD permit (Form R.6), then a health certificate valid for only a few days. Work it out backwards from the flight.

Frequently asked questions
pet-friendly condos Bangkok
Bangkok condos that people ask about by name include M Jatujak, Aguston Sukhumvit 22, MARU Ekkamai 2, M Silom, Waterford Sukhumvit 50, M Thonglor 10 and Maestro 39. BAANLYY shows a building's pet rule only when we have already confirmed it from a named source. If it does not, the page says “Pet rule not confirmed yet” and links the tower page, where you can ask us. Never treat marketing copy as the rule.
Are there pet-friendly condos in Bangkok?
Yes — some buildings allow pets, some do not, and many have no sourced rule on file yet. The building’s juristic rules and the unit owner are two separate permissions. See the sourced Bangkok directory and the Thailand pet-friendly rentals guide for how to get both yeses in writing.
Which Bangkok condos allow pets?
Only a building whose pet rule BAANLYY has confirmed from a named source can be quoted as allowing pets. Of the seven towers named on this page, a rule appears only where that sourced record exists. The rest say “Pet rule not confirmed yet”. The Bangkok pet-friendly condo directory lists every Bangkok building whose policy we have already sourced.
How do I confirm a Bangkok condo pet rule?
Open the tower page and use the ask-us button, or ask the juristic office in writing before you sign. A landlord’s verbal yes does not override a building ban. BAANLYY does not infer a rule from a brochure or a portal listing.
General information only. Building pet rules change. A sourced rule on this page is the rule as we last read it from the named source — confirm the current rule with the juristic office before you sign. BAANLYY never takes paid placement.

A tower appears with a rule only when BAANLYY has already confirmed it from a named source. Towers without that record are named and linked, not guessed.
