FolkGuitar Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Just a heads-up to say that you can still apply for the Wing 41 road pass sticker. In fact, the lines at the Military Police Office are four abreast, going out side and around the building... There are soooo many more people applying this year than last! With so many using this 'special' pass, I have to wonder why any pass is even given? Regardless, the office is open in the mornings only, and will be, until Dec 29th. Get there at 8:15 and avoid 'most' of the rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenside Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I've always wondered. As long as the pass is displayed on the vehicle and matches the registration it doesn't seem to matter who is driving and as far as I remember it is transferred along with ownership. If this has to do with security then the scheme has holes you could drive a submarine through, but it pretty much can't be beaten as a means of generating a lot of paperwork and self importance.

FolkGuitar Posted December 11, 2017 Author Share Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) .... and income. We have to pay 5 baht for the application, and 100 baht for the sticker. As there were more than 200 people ahead of me just during the hour or so that I was there on the morning I went, and double that number when I left... and I imagine close to 1,000 going through the office every day since the beginning of November, that starts to add up to significant numbers.

kalbo123 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 what paperwork do you need to bring to get sticker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FolkGuitar Posted December 11, 2017 Author Share Posted December 11, 2017 20 minutes ago, kalbo123 said: what paperwork do you need to bring to get sticker? A copy of your passport photo page and a copy of your green book. You can get the application form by walking inside and through to the back. Turn left as soon as you go down the steps and you'll see the desk with the forms. You will need to pay 5 baht for the form. You can fill out the form at the tables, then stand in one of the four lines to have your paperwork checked and stamped. Then stand on the serpentine line to the payment window where they will collect your documents, take 100 baht, and give you a receipt showing the date when you can return to pick up the sticker.

FolkGuitar Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 Sorry about the Green Book/Blue Book matter. It never entered my mind that car books are different. I wouldn't EVER want to own a car in Chiang Mai, not and keep my sanity! For the 1-2 times a year that I absolutely must use a car, I rent one.

junglechef Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Last year they had a copy machine and for a small fee they would make nec doc for you. This year they said "maybe near CMU" when I asked (luckily I carry a few copies of often asked for docs in my glovebox) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
