Hi,

you'll need the transfer docs, & a copy of yr missus Tabien Baan.

Possibly proof of your address in Thailand, (Tabien Baan or document from immigration)

[sarahsbloke]

you need passport + cert of residence

She needs ID card + Tabien Baan book

M/c registration book + m/c

Then off to the office in Lumpun road, near the bridge (not Narawat, not one way, but one after.

Tabien Baan as in house book, that aint gunna happen, hers 650km's away, work permit should cover the need for me.

What a pisser, do i leave it unregistered or do I re-register in my name than transfer when I get back.... AGHHHHHHHHH finding time to go to the LTD is a bastard !!!!

Thanks guys/Gals.

EDIT: My house here in Pattaya is rented in mine and the missus's name (We are both on the lease), also her "home" address" address is on her ID card, Im guessing this will not suffice ??

what do you mean unregistered if you mean the yearly tax renewal. if so just get the girlfriend to go to the local insurance office and they will sort it all out for a 100-150b over the tax cost. which is 100b per year and government yearly insurance which is no more than 600 then i think a small fine 45b for late payment.

Its a bit late now (!) but you can either go to anywhere that sells motor bike insurance (any m/c shop will point you in the right direction or do it for you) and as its only two years old they can do the tax for you too for the small fee mentioned above, or you (or GF/anyone else) can go to the Land Transport Office near ISR and pay the insurance there (agents outside and in) and then pay the tax.

If you have done your side of the paperwork to transfer it to her she can get a copy of her house papers faxed/e-mailed to her and do the transfer at her leisure, without you, as long as your papers are valid (in date).
