Guys, I know this is probably something that has been gone over a few times, but can someone explain to me how to register a bike in your name when you bought it from a different province?

Basically, I stay in Chiang Mai. and if I was to buy a bike in another province how would I go about getting it registered in my name in Chiang Mai.

appreciate any response i'm sure it is easy.

When I sold my Bangkok registered bike to a guy in CM it was very easy.

Rode the bike up and then we went to the CM DMV together with buyer to complete the transfer. (Note that in CM the office that handles motorcycles is different from the office that handles cars). A bit tricky to find if you don't know where it is.

Anyway- go in with green book and other required documents, such as work permit or address letter from embassy etc. Copies of passport, proof of insurance ,etc. and in the case of CM they were incredibly helpful and filled out all of the transfer documents for us. (When I sold another bike to a buyer in Khon Kaen they were also quite friendly but didn't fill out the documents for us... (Probably because the buyer had his Thai wife along)

When a vehicle is changing provinces they send the green book back to Bangkok where the changes are made and then the Green Book will be sent back to CM. Takes about a week.

They'll also issue you a new plate for CM to replace the BKK plate. This also took about a week in CM if I remember correctly. (Time can vary from province to province.)

If I've forgotten anything or made any mistakes I'm sure someone will kindly correct me :)

Ride On!

Tony
