What are the road tax payment requirements for a motorbike that hasn't been taxed for multiple years in Thailand?

Tom *******

There seems to be some confusion here between a number plate and registration plate. To me, they are the same thing. Anyway I’m done. Have a nice day.

why? if you’ve paid to have it registered in your name, why would you give that proof of ownership up? Using it on your land, you still want to be able to prove it belongs to you should it be stolen etc.

There’s no reference made to the UK or the US in the original post so you’ve lost me. My point is that usually you’re not expected to pay road tax when a vehicle isn’t being used on a public road. Anyway, I’m done. Carry on. :-)

been here 25 years, dear, and we have two cars, me and wifey, both registered and taxed. My comment was about having to pay tax every year regardless of whether it’s being used on Thai roads or not. Seems scammy. You should have the choice like you do in the UK.

Seems like a stupid system. What if you were using a vehicle only on private land? Why would you have to pay road tax? And backdated too? When it wasn’t being used on said roads? Smh.

My pal uses an agent for his yearly retirement EoS and has done for 5-6 years. it costs 12,000 THB per year and an extra 1,000 THB if you want them to do your 90-day reports as well.
