NomadJoe Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 500B officially, 200B directly to the copper. They aren't to strict in my experience, but you may need to put back to stock some of that stuff to get it to stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnotherOneAmerican Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) The overdue fine is 1bht per month. If you can drive it to the inspection, it's passed. Buy your insurance from the inspection place to guarantee the pass. Edited June 7, 2013 by AnotherOneAmerican 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loong Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I took a motorbike to the insurance company to get inspection and insurance. It had a bald front tyre and barely working rear brake. I thought that I would get it inspected before in case they found something else that needed doing. I was amazed when it passed! So no, they don't seem to be too strict Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerald14 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I have an 8 year old Honda as the second car and the tax ran out about one year. I just went to the insurance to do a No. 3 insurance and they fixed everything for me. No fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comserve Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I was stopped by the police & they found that I was about 1 year overdue with registration which cost me 200B. I went to department of transport & re-registered it. There registration was charged from when the old one ran out but the 3rd party was 12 months from when I renewed it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ppmacready Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I took my Merc for the government inspection near the Regents school. By coincidence it had been washed and polished the day before. They passed it without inspecting it at all. T.I.T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They passed it without inspecting it at all. T.I.T My understanding is that that place has been closed (inspection-wise) for a couple of years. Now located opposite entrance to Cholchan resort on Sukhumvit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tollgate Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I took my Merc for the government inspection near the Regents school. By coincidence it had been washed and polished the day before.

Now located opposite entrance to Cholchan resort on Sukhumvit. If by inspection place you mean the vehicle test centre, it's still there near the Regent School, opposite the main Car Tax building. Took my ancient Mighty X there a couple of months ago and got dirt cheap third party insurance too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTH Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 When you go to renew the tax, the late fee is 1% per month. So for a small bike that will be about 1 baht/month. You will need an inspection of a bike that's 5 years or older. As for the testing station at the LTO close to the Regents in Pattaya, they were closed for a while, supposedly for renovation, but has been open again for at least 1 year.
