Turkleton Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 (edited) they inspected the bike took my paper work with stamp on from jomtien office my passport paid 300 baht , went back for new paper work 3 days later EASY 555 Well, done... 300 Baht means, the Office did all the transfer for free, or probably they put some of their own money in. Seriously, I've transferred numerous bikes and the fees at the DLT alone are ~300 Baht at best (depending on the bike and the circumstances). The "offices" usually charge 800-1000 Baht (or more) for their assistance. So your story is a little bit....uhhmm...hard to believe.

If you do the transfer yourself directly at the DLT the charges are around these the op mentioned depend on the cc of bike of course. If u do it via a middlemen you always pay more. Do it yourself its not rocke science! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briggsy Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 (edited) At immigration, the buyer (you) obtained a certificate of residence and not a "form for new ownership", I suspect. You then went to the Land Transport Department Office. From memory, when I sold a CBR 150, the transfer fee was 500 Baht. Did you buy something smaller?
