Interior Minister Phlepeer Suwannachavee presided over the opening of the nationwide electronic land office system on August 3, 2025, at the Bangkok Land Office's Chatuchak branch, upgrading 17 Bangkok land office locations to full electronic systems. The ceremony was attended by Deputy Permanent Secretary Phassakorn Bunlaksam, Deputy Land Department Director Trairat Tephborirak, and Bangkok Metropolitan Electricity Authority Governor Dichavat Chanthri, along with senior government officials.
Suwannachavee stated that the government prioritizes using technology to solve problems and create tangible benefits across all government processes by reducing unnecessary steps, linking data between agencies, and designing services based on citizen needs. He emphasized that Interior Ministry agencies should operate as a one-stop service where citizens do not need to travel far, submit duplicate documents, or contact multiple agencies for the same service.
The Land Department has developed its electronic office system to cover all 77 provinces and 462 offices nationwide. The Bangkok land office and its 17 branches now operate as fully electronic facilities where officials, applicants, parties to contracts, and witnesses can sign electronically. Suwannachavee praised department staff for their development efforts and outlined future goals: improving service speed from 30 minutes to 15 minutes per transaction, achieving full e-document capability, and enabling complete online transactions with legal validity for property buying, selling, transferring, and document signing.
