This is the monthly fee for one unit, not a rate per sqm, so a city of large units reads higher than a city of studios. Thai buildings quote CAM per sqm; multiply by your unit size to compare a specific building.

How this is measured

Each building's fee comes from a FazWaz unit listing that states the monthly CAM charge. We keep readings between ฿200 and ฿60,000 a month: below that the source is quoting a per-sqm rate, above it the figure is a parse error — one building read ฿20,199,600 a month until we caught it. Medians are per area, refreshed weekly.

Bangkok condo fees — frequently asked questions

How much are condo common-area fees in Bangkok?▾

฿2,090 a month is the median across 1,167 Bangkok buildings we measure, with half between ฿1,386 and ฿3,918. The figure is for one unit: a larger unit in the same building pays more, because Thai buildings bill CAM per square metre.

What does the CAM fee pay for?▾

Security, cleaning, lifts, water in the common areas, garden and pool upkeep, and the juristic office. A building with a pool, a gym and a concierge costs more to run than a walk-up, which is most of the spread between any two buildings.

What is the sinking fund?▾

A one-off contribution to the building's capital reserve, charged at transfer and quoted per square metre. It pays for lift replacements and repainting rather than day-to-day running, and a resale unit has usually paid it once already.

What happens if an owner stops paying?▾

Arrears accrue interest, and the juristic person can refuse the debt-free letter the Land Office requires to transfer the unit — which is why unpaid CAM surfaces at the worst possible moment, on the day of a sale.
