I'm late to this post, as I just saw it in my email. Earlier this year, I had two shots in my eye at Sriphat in Chiang Mai. In my situation, it was from a burst blood vessel deep in the center of my eye, and the medication was meant to dissolve that. I don't know what has been covered here, but my experience was this: First injection, they numbed my whole eyeball for half an hour in advance. The needle itself didn't hurt, but it felt like a nightmare when they put that plastic thing over my face, with a cloth over my mouth and nose so it felt like I couldn't breath for a moment. That one was super uncomfortable and felt like a piece of sand was in my eye for 3 days after, and I could barely sleep. Saw a black dot everywhere I looked. Second injection (a month later), they numbed me for just a few minutes and did the injection. I knew what to expect, so it wasn't painful, but I could see everything including the floating liquid going into my eye. I was surprised that about a day later, my irritation was gone, and very little pain. Just uncomfortable and that little black spot you see for two days. Overall, it was an uncomfortable and unfun experience. But, the tradeoff compared to not being able to see things was quite worth it.

I was totally going with the flow, thinking I had another 6 months to go. Oh well, what can ya do.

Yes, I bought the bike back in December, and registered everything completely in January. All of that has long been taken care of. The question was simply why was the registration for 6 months instead of a year.

I'm not worried on the cost. Remember, I bought the bike several months ago and have already paid everything. My specific question is why was it only registered for half a year instead of a full year.

Ok cool, thanks for the info. I'll look that up!

Thanks for the info. I had to get a new plate for it, I know it was pre-owned by someone in Bangkok. They gave me a new Chiang Mai plate. It's a 2021 model and used.

Hello, I purchased and registered a motorbike here in Chiang Mai in Dec of 2024. A friend just pointed out to me the other day that my expiration on my sticker/paper (kept in the tube on the bike) expires July 2025. I was under the impression that it was 1 year at a time. This was my first vehicle purchase inside Thailand. Any clues as to what is the norm? I did try to reach out to the DLT website email, but no replies yet. I also cannot fill out the form on my computer with the Thai/Numeric mixed character license plate (it won't let me paste in either). I'll make a trip down there at the end of the month if nothing else, but hoping there might be some insight here. Thank you.
