Hi, 

I'm looking for an agent who can help me change my bike's green book to my name. The previous owner has now left the island but I have copies of his paperwork.

I have heard that Dan Autos does a service like this - though everytime I have been there has not been English speaking staff there. As I work every day on the other side of the island, it is a bit of a pain to keep trying there.

How would I find another 'agent'? Or.. any recommendations?  I live in Lamai, so the closer to there the better.

Thanks!

Hey everyone. Thanks for the reply. Bike is definitely not stolen, the seller was there when I bought it and was very honest. He was super kind and had photocopied all of his documents for me and signed everything ready for me to take it to change the name.

However, I flew back to England for a holiday before I had gotten it sorted and just kept putting it off. And now I'm finally trying to deal with it but it's 6 months after the initial sale, so his documents are now out of date.

Thanks for the advice though. 

If I take it to the DLT office, will they be able to help? Or will they assume I stole it?

I can try and get in contact with the previous seller - if he give a photocopy of his current passport (showing him not in Samui), would that help?

Hi,

I bought a bike from someone in June. He was gracious enough to give me his green book and some forms and photocopies of documents all signed, ready for me to transfer to my name.

Unfortunately, I'm terrible and haven't gotten round to transferring it to my name. I think the previous owner is not even in Thailand anymore. 

What can I do? Have I left it too late? I still have all of these documents but obviously his signed photocopy of his passport is now 6 months out of date..

I want to take the bike out of town and around the country but am worried that without my name in the green book this may cause problems. If I was caught with the green book in someone else's name, is this illegal? 

Any advice would be amazing! Thank you
