pagallim Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Hello,I would like to buy a boat in Thailand, do i need a permit ? I have my french permit only. Thanks. Do you mean a permit to buy, or to operate a boat? Buying a boat requires the vessel to be registered in your name. Operating a boat requires a Thai certificate of competency, for which your French licence should be proof of competency. A Thai 2nd Class helmsman certificate (valid for vessels from 1 to 30 tonnes), costs 5500 Baht from your local Marine Office. An example of the certificate attached.
