sussex Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 So the owner of a car has left Thailand (non-immigrant visa has expired, no longer lives in Thailand) and wants to transfer ownership of their car to someone in Thailand. How can this be done? The car is just being transferred not sold. Can a proof of address from their current country be used, alongside power of attorney, for the new car owner to do the transfer of ownership on their behalf? Thanks.

NanLaew Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 You are dealing with a branch of a Thai government agency. Best to drop the branch of the Land Transport Office where you plan on doing this transfer and ask them. I know that PoA drafted by a Thai lawyer and witnessed in Thailand was accepted fairly recently at an LTO for transfering a vehicle's title in the absence of the owner. However, just like Thai immigration offices, LTO rules and their implementation can vary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sussex Posted April 5, 2023 Author Share Posted April 5, 2023 Thanks NanLaew, I phoned the DLT hotline, they said if owner is abroad need: copy of their passport, power of attorney letter, and letter handing over ownership of car. Documents have to be signed by hand. At Chatuchak DLT it's building 2 floor 2. Fingers crossed it'll work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
