I have to deal with the Jomtien office. I just got my first one-year extension on my Non-O retirement visa.

My issue now is I want to buy a vehicle in Thailand.

I understand I need a 'Residence Certificate' to make such a purchase. I read on the net that the forms have to be submitted and then they send the certificate out like 2 or 3 weeks later! I cannot expect a seller to hold a vehicle for 2 or 3 weeks.

I need a certificate ASAP if possible. I read there are an agents service I can buy and get the certificate in one day for like 500 baht. Can you tell me if that is possible in Jomtien please?

I also read somewhere that I cannot even get a Residency Certificate until I make my first 90 reporting. That seems very much not right, but I realize this is Thailand. So if that is true, I have no hopes of getting a Residency Certificate until that 90 days rolls around anyway, right?

Thanks much for any advice or info you can give me!

Where I can shop for ATV ???

While this doesn't apply to me at the present time (as I already own 2 vehicles, a car and a motorcycle), and don't intend on selling or purchasing any vehicles anytime soon, but can anyone shed some light on this topic?

Some kind of "permit" is required for foreigners purchasing vehicles in Thailand? That concerns me, but perhaps it's being overhyped when in fact it may be nothing at all.

In the comments section of the video, one guy seems to confirm it only applies in Chumphon province and it's a simple 5 Baht document from the Land Transport Department.

Just wondering if anyone has purchased a vehicle recently and had to produce anything beyond the usual passport + residence permit (from immigration or your embassy) OR yellow book OR work permit + fill in the forms provided by the seller or showroom?

My wife and I are looking to go to Thailand for 3-4 months this winter. I'm wonder if anyone can give advice on long term car rentals or even looking to purchase a cheaper vehicle for this time. We will be staying in Suan Phueng.

If we like living there we'll be looking to make the move the following winter.

Thanks for the input.
