Roulph

I am an ex pat living in Malaysia and used to ride my motorbike up to Thailand 5 or 6 times a year with a group of friends for between 5 to 14 days we always tour round and usually stay in nice hotels however Thai immigration say we are only allowed to cross the border twice per year without getting a visa from the Thai embassy this never used to be the case and applies to all expats and Singapore bikers this means spending a  day at the embassy then another trip to pick up your passport which effectively means two wasted days  because of this rule change hundreds of bikers are just giving up on Thailand Question - how is this good for tourism

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to bring 2 bikes into Thailand on one trip, on one passport. Both bikes are registered in my name in Malaysia however my wife is Thai and rides the other bike everyday. My wife has a residents pass in Malaysia and works as a P.A. in a Malaysian company. We have been told that the only way to do it is to get someone with a Malaysian passport to walk the second bike over the border with a letter from me and do the same on return. If my wife rides it she has to pay duty even though the bike is registered in my name and we are only going to be in Thailand for a month before returning to Malaysia with both bikes. Any feed back would be welcome.
