    Dr. Jack,

    My stepson’s friend had someone call my wife on my behalf. He told her that for 20k THB my noncompliance will vanish and I will get a new extension based on retirement. I believe he is an agent.

     

    is this legal? My Thai wife believes this more corruption for her country. We would deal with Jomtien instead of Sri Racha. I see many agents advertising In Pattaya so I suppose it is OK. How do the agents accomplish what they do? Thanks in advance!

    have you obtained a 60 day visit Thai wife extension since your last entry, other than a re-entry permit entry, if not you could get one to give you time to sort out your application, and avoid an overstay.

     

    if you are going the agent route shop around in Pattaya as prices differ, 

     

    is your marriage cert from overseas, if so it has to be registered at local amphur, its a complicated process.

     

    marriage extension once all the requirements are met is straight forward, only differnces to retirement extension is - photo's, kor ror 2 or 22, some extra wife's forms, and the 30 days under consideration period

     

  2. blue plates letters/numbers and green plate letters/numbers  are taxed at a set rate.

    Car+4 door pick up tax, black letters/numbers.

    is according to cylinder capacity (CC), not more than 7 people, with the following rates
    1st 600cc, 0.50 baht per cc- 601 - 1,800 cc, 1.50 baht per cc
    More than 1,800 cc, 4.00 baht per cc
    However, if it is a  car of a juristic person that is not a hire-purchase provider
     must pay twice the rate,In addition, if a car that has been registered for 5 years, 
    will receive annual tax deductions from original tax in the following years as follows.
    Year 6, 10 percent -  Year 7, 20 percent - Year 8, 30 percent
    Year 9, 40 percent  Year 10 and next year 50%
    If you have paid taxes late, you must pay 1% per month.

    Ok, so Kalasin did forget to mention the need for an O visa. I'll go and speak with them. As they appear not to know their own rules, again, they might say I don't need it.

     

    There's a month to go before my visa exempt expires, so it isn't that urgent. The money has been there for years anyway so that isn't an issue.

    you need at least 14 days left on your permission to stay to apply for a non immigrant ' O' visa, whicj you woll need to apply for a yearly wife extension

    Where's the actual link and who wrote it?

     

    However, that is not my question. I want to know where I need to go to change ownership but keep the registration number.

    if you want your name in a blue book for a car registered in Bangkok, that name change has to be done in Bangkok, it can not be done in another province, you can re-tax it in another province though, using the blue book or a copy of said book

    To change the name of a car registered in say Bangkok,  in another province say Prachuap Khiri Khan, then you need to change the number to a local number, at the office in that province that does number changes, all DLT's in a province do not do number changes, ie pattaya DLT does not do number changes, it has to be done in Chon Buri DLT

    Just looked at the conditions from a used car loan company on 800,000 baht car. Maximum deposit they accept is 30% or 239,000 baht. Outstanding balance over 4 years, repayment is 13,516 baht per month. Over 7 years 9,100 baht month. Strangely it depends on the cost of the car as to the repayment terms imposed.

    seems a good deal, 88,000 interest, having seen cars advertised with a lot more interest
