Can I transfer ownership of my car in Thailand while I'm overseas using power of attorney?
Looking for advice on transferring ownership of a car while the owner is overseas. The owner no longer has a Thai work permit, but has a month left on a non-o dependents visa. Is it possible to do without the owner returning to Thailand via power of attorney?
Answer summary
The post inquires about the possibility of transferring car ownership in Thailand while the owner is overseas, without a work permit, but with a valid NON-O dependents visa. Answers suggest that obtaining a power of attorney (POA) and providing a copy of the owner's passport are necessary, while the work permit status is deemed irrelevant.
