eyecatcher Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 The colour of your money is most important. visas not even relevant when buying new;....but you need an address at some point to register your car/bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onthedarkside Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 You just need the Certificate of Residence from Immgration, or WP, or Yellow Tabian Baan. No problem with Non-O or Tourist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janpharma Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 You just need the Certificate of Residence from Immgration, or WP, or Yellow Tabian Baan. No problem with Non-O or Tourist. A while ago I went to Immigration asking for the Certificate of residence, telling them that I planned to sell my car and buy a new one. I had to come back after 2 days and they gave me 2 letters mentioning that I was allowed to buy/sell a car. This wasn't the "Certificate" I was asking for but however...

ToddinChonburi Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 The land transportation office just needs to get your paper work done before your Visa Expires. I should say paper work. You will have to do it all over if they screw up. Your address certificate is only good for 30 days. Honda did not get my paper work in soon enough and had to do it all over again. Still have not got my plates. Purchased back in June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told it took that long only because I wanted plates from Bangkok, not from the province where I reside. If from the same province, 1 month.

ThaiSanookGuy Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 It does not matter but even some luxuries car sellere do not know and I had to explain how to register a 5 MB car in my name... So ridiculous they are ! Sometimes I really feel like to have a cheap life in this country because they don't deserve more money than the minimum...

sead Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Usually they require 3 months visa for new cars and scooters/mc. Thats because it takes about 2-3 months until your purchased vehicle is registered. Mine took 7 months Usually no requirements about visa when buying second hand but residence certificate and that you can get anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
