jcgodber Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 The red plate is a temporary issued by the dealer for your use until the real plate is ready, perhaps around 1 or 2 months Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are not meant to leave the province the car is registered in while on red plates and you are not meant to drive before sunrise (6am) or after sunset (6pm). Don't worry, just tell the dealer you want the red plates off asap and bug them from the moment you take possession of the vehicle about it. I managed to get them changed within two weeks if I remember correctly. Seems this is not inline with ExPat motors info..........I have heard the above is true and correct!

Berty Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 It's totally impractical this driving after dark rule, which was done away with a couple of years ago. Who is going to leave their car at home, or even at the side of the raod as it's just gone 6pm and take the bus or a taxi home? Unfortunately the police still use is occasionally to extort money out of people, worst case is it will cost you 100-200 Baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
