Let's say tomorrow I lose my job. How secure is that loan? Sorry you obviously no clue as to how a loan company assess' risk for a loan to be issued 1. You have no Thai based income - and a flight risk 2. Your not a Thai citizen 3. Your not a legal resident 4. You have no credit history in Thailand A work permit at least establishes some legal connection to Thailand and a Thai entity Dont know why your making a such a big issue over this, get a Thai national to sign on behalf of your wife and you put down a 30% deposit its that simple Edited January 12, 2017 by Savilesghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rules are not inconsistant, simply because each lender being private companies have different rules for them to lend you their money...no different from anywhere else in the world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fookhaht Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I didn't have a problem .....I don't have a work permit and am retired ...The car is in my name and the loan is in my name. I got a loan from Kiatnakin Bank ....Just told the Auto dealer if you want to sell me a car/truck... get me a loan. And they did!Same here, same technique, same bank. 250,000B loan on a 350,000B used vehicle. Just keep trying. Even different branches of one bank run by different rules. Went to 4 different branches of one Thai bank to get a credit card. Was told, "Foreigners can't get credit cards without a deposit account that can't be touched." The fifth branch (same bank) said "Sure, no problem!" and issued me a totally unsecured credit card account. Go figure. Persistence will get you that loanSent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We bought a new car last week and the dealer was dying to get me to buy it outright in my name or co-sign. I refused. My gf has a successful business, good credit and no debt. I told the dealer "find a bank that will finance her or I will find a dealer who can". Next day "Approved!" What a shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theguyfromanotherforum Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 why pay interest on something high value unless you are earning more by keeping it in a bank, and interest rates these days rock bottom makes it highly unlikely, Because he said it himself. Translation... if something bad happens in Thailand and he decides to bail = less risk for him.As mentioned before, he could get a loan in his own country or wherever his business is located, but that's liability to him.So, the banks are very correct in their decision no to lend a single baht.

So isnt a co sign by a thai national a better option, if he wishes to bail then the loan falls onto the cosign ?

connda Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 (edited) It's skewed logic. I have family members who make 10K THB a month but the banks allow them to qualify for a new car loan that costs them 6K THB per month! Now find the logic? The same bank will not offer a foreigner a new car loan because they are risk averse, but they carry billions on their books that are extended to unqualified buyers. When the Thai credit bubble pops they will recite the mantra, "We didn't see it coming!" Edited January 12, 2017 by connda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinbin Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 If I was not in Thailand and wanted to buy a new car I'd get a good discount for a cash payment. Here in Ting Tong Land they don't, and prefer you to buy on the never never. Cash is King! But not in Thailand. Credit is king. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all it appears we have numerous stupid farangs on here who dont even understand basic financial protocols as regards assessing somebody for a loan Lets summarise a typical farang 1. Foreign income 2. No credit history or score in Thailand 3. No "legal" status in Thailand 4. not in the tax system 5. Flight risk Based on this i wouldnt be loaning money to a person either Edited January 12, 2017 by Savilesghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you be able to get a car loan? If an extension of stay based on retirement does not prove income, I would like to know what does?? We jump through hoops to get these documents, which includes documentation of our income from our Embassy. Somehow that is not deemed to be good enough, even though the usual draconian penalties apply for perjury on a government document. The usual lack of logic mixed with thinly veiled racism.

bermannor Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 when run out of arguments, the racism card will be drawn. A credit card ore more, specially in US, means nothing.
