Buy new p.r.b (compulsory insurance) at the DLT usually when buying 1st class insurance it comes with the compulsory insurance. I know mine does You need the original document, so email doesn't help Gov. compulsory is paid for separately, most brokers ask if you want it, because you may already have it. You will have paid for it on top of the insurance you purchased, as they must pay the Gov....???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. My insurance company does the running around for me for a charge of 100 Baht on top of the insurance premium, road worthiness test and tax. All done and dusted in a couple of days.

Difference between finance and not... you have to get off your arse and go sort it. Process is still that easy that even the most basic of human being can do. we seem to have members on this forum that are sub basic human being... wonder if they need assistance to wipe their arse ?

I used an agent to get a bike I own legal because it was a fairly complex process: 1. It had not been taxed for years 2. Change of ownership 3. Colour change 4. New book and registration plate in a different province 5. Vehicle testing process All that was done and the vehicle never left my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have better things to do with my time than deal with those matters. The agent was told that if he wanted to take the bike with him I was content with that.

Andycoops Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Additional private car insurance is not required to renew your annual road registration, the compulsory government insurance is issued and paid for at the same time as the new 1 year windscreen sticker.
