Hili Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 should use the search next time... You need transfer document signed by owner, his id signed, green book signed and if you want to do it by yourself you need a power of attorney. You need a certificate of residence/ or work permit and copy of passport both signed. Some DLTs wanna see the purchase contract as well.

retoocs01 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Dont think so, what happens if the seller doesnt have a house He is talking about the "tabien baan", the so called *housebook*. Every Thai has it. It's more or less a "certificate of residence", it has nothing to do with the fact if you own a house or not... However, some DLT want a copy from the sellers "tabien baan", some not. Better you can provide it. But Thais will need a copy of the "tabien baan", if they are the buyer and want to register a bike in their name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

submaniac Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I don't recall needing the seller's housebook copy when I transferred my bikes. Just needed the book, a copy of the seller's ID with signature, and transfer document (since I am a Thai citizen I didn't need my passport or anything).

Hili Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 the point is that required documents/ prcoess can vary from DLT to DLT even sometimes on the officers.... so better check by yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoolHustler Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Done one today in Pattaya , no tabien bahnn copy required Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roel Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Done two in Phuket recently. No tabien baan needed. But had other issues. Firstly the Thai seller had signed her ID-card with black ink. That should be blue to make sure it is an original signature and not a copy. It took some talking but they accepted in te end. Then one of the forms (not sure which one) must be signed by two witnesses. These must be Thai nationals only. I had no such signatures and they made a big fuzz about it but in the end two office clerks signed for me. They told me this was an exception and next time I had to make sure I provided witness signatures myself. Next time was two weeks later and I had them. Any Thai can sign and no copy of their ID-cards required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
