According the girl at the front counter when needing a resi cert to buy a car one must also have a copy of the bluebook and bill of sale !! Not sure how that works but it makes it hard to buy a car.

Henryford Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 When i bought a bike recently i needed a copy of the deposit i paid for the bike, not the full sale receipt. No one is going to buy a car/bike without being sure they will get a res cert afterwards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't want to butt in but I also felt obtaining the residence certificate might require more, and the documents one needs dependent on the reason one requires the C.O.R. Using it to open a bank account, need letter from bank, to get a tax number, need letter from revenue dept. I heard the complaints from a group selling and buying a vehicle next to me, being asked for bluebook and some receipt. At the same time as being frustrated myself! Easiest was to say renew driving licence, didn't ask to see licence, although tried to make me pay for 2 C.O.Rs, insisting one is required for each licence.. a blatant lie.

Ask at the garage first, say you have it and is it ok, basically they know they will get a sale if they agree to be pragmatic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your selling to another farang living in Chonburi the car will have to get new Chonburi plates (his problem not yours and quite simple really) if its to a thai person they are allowed to drive on out of province plates.

The lady did have her fun, she had already sent me off to get a copy of something else that I never believed was required, and when I returned with it, told me to come back in the afternoon, as the morning 'run' was now full. I had been standing outside since 7 am. Perhaps she worried I might get postal if asked to get another original C.O.R! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iam the buyer not the seller, its going to suck for me buying the BKK registered car and thn having immigration not issueing the resi cert so that I can sort the book out into my name and change provinces. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is still necessary? I did it some decade ago and had to find some place in Chonburi City, going there two times, it couldn't be done at the Pattaya Hwy 36 place. I actually thought that requirement had been superseded, and one could carry on with the out of province plates. If only for Thais, next vehicle might be in the Mrs name....

Yes I did it last year.....if I,d have put the car in the missus,s name then I could have kept the BKK plates.....nope sorry I paid around 4,000 baht to one of the "agents" across the road to do it all for me. Previous to that 3 years ago I bought an earlier car from a farang dealer in Patts and went together to Chonburi DLT and did it ourselves (two trips)....he still wanted "commission" also 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring her to a really nice looking (expensive) house and take a selfie with her outside the house. Show the photo to the IO lady, and tell her that she's very ugly and can never achieve what you have. Should teach her a lesson.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluebook is the house book , theirs I assume as we cant have our name in it. You have to fake the bill of sale as that normally is handed over after purchase. What a mess. Maybe if you go back another day, different girl different rules? Done that with IMO before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
