About Rai
A rai (ไร่) is the standard Thai unit of land area, defined as exactly 1,600 m² (40 m × 40 m). It is used throughout Thailand for all land measurement - from rice paddies to urban plots and national parks. Thai real estate listings always quote land area in rai, ngan (400 m² = ¼ rai), and talang wah (4 m² = 1 square wah). Thailand's total rice-paddy area is reported in millions of rai. One rai equals approximately 0.395 acres or 0.16 hectares.
About Tsubo
A tsubo (坪) is the traditional Japanese unit of floor area, equal to 400/121 m² (approximately 3.306 m²) - defined as the footprint of two tatami mats placed side by side. It has been the standard for measuring rooms and apartments in Japan for centuries and remains widely used in real estate and architecture today. Apartment sizes in Japan are routinely quoted in tsubo alongside square meters. One tsubo equals approximately 35.58 square feet or 3.95 square yards.
