I'm arriving in Bangkok soon with my partner. He will be on a OA retirement visa while I am on a work permit. We intend to get a car but are unsure about what personal documentation is required to do so. Can anyone advise?

I just needed copies of my passport to register the car, you only need the WP if you're applying for finance to purchase the car, along with Bank statements, salary slip and proof of salary from your company.

You'd have to be a fool to want to buy a car in Bangkok with its excellent and dirt-cheap transportation system.

Leave the decision to the OP.

Some people might want to leave the city of angels from time to time.

 

I move this thread to the motor forum.

 

To the OP : if no finance is involved the topic is mainly: what is needed to register the car at the DLT (deportment of land transport). Particularly at the Bangkok DLTs.

For a new car often the dealer takes this task and collects your documents.

Thanks but I'm more likely to buy a second hand one. How and who needs to register it?
