Buying a scooter without papers, how do I get new ones?
Dear readers,
I can buy a scooter at a reasonable price. The problem is that there are no papers. He took a foreign man home and lost them. Does anyone know what I have to do to get new papers?
Regards,
Jos
Always ask for the green booklet
If he is not with you, a new application on you or your wife's name
ask there at the police station, and don't let the seller tell you a nice story, it's probably the same as reporting it to the police here that the papers are missing, then you get a report, they check if it hasn't been stolen and then ask you know where new papers to the police are at the right authority, they must always be among them.
make sure you have a good interpreter.
then you get new papers.
Well,
No papers = stolen, excuses like a foreign man, took the green book with him.
Take a picture of the license plate and go to the police to ask if it has been stolen.
If you own a scooter and your green book is lost, you can get a new one at the transport “land” office, but of course only the owner and not you.
Never buy a second-hand scooter, Thai does not do any maintenance.
Always extra costs later.
Well, I would say never buy a (motor) vehicle without papers that stinks of crime.
Go to the Department of Land Transport office, get license plate and chassis number and ask whose name that thing is registered to. Only that person (or perhaps an authorized representative) can request a new green booklet. It would be crazy if someone else could do that without the knowledge of the owner. If it doesn't work through that person: forget it, probably stolen, although the story about the owner who went abroad cannot be completely ruled out. But what the truth is does not matter to you: an outsider cannot request a new green book.
For several years I had the annual tax and compulsory insurance paid by the Honda shop where I bought it. Until he lost the green book. At the transport office I could get a new booklet for a fee. Of course I had to show my passport with which they could check that the moped was registered in my name.
Look before you leap, so just don't buy.
They come with all kinds of beautiful stories.
Was once able to buy a used Yamaha 800 cc dragstar shopper bike, also had no green book.
Appeared to have been imported as second hand from Japan and presumably no import duties were paid.
I asked the seller if he could provide the required paperwork and how much the bike would cost.
He didn't start it.
You never know why it has not been taxed, maybe stolen or has ever been involved in a serious accident.
There are plenty of second hand motorcycles and scooters for sale in Thailand that do have all the necessary papers including the green book, so why take the risk and nag.
