Match payment milestones to dated site evidence, professional certification, permits, notices and contract remedies.
A payment notice is not proof of completed work
Map every instalment to the signed contract, drawings, specification and objective completion test. Request dated site photographs, progress reports, the certifier's identity and authority, invoices and any required permit or inspection record. Check the seller's notice was delivered correctly and that the claimed stage matches the actual unit and common areas.
Have independent Thai counsel and a qualified construction professional review disputed or material milestones before payment. Preserve objections and deadlines in writing. Read the payment-milestone guide, developer due diligence and buyer service.

Fact check
Certification, permits, completion tests, notice rules, withholding rights and remedies depend on the contract, project and current Thai law. Obtain current professional advice before delaying or releasing funds.
