7000 including insurance in pattaya

Neither the airlines nor immigration asked me for this on my last two entries with DTV. Could they? Possibly...

@Ron *******

Agree with Ron. The shop right inside together with immigration was very helpful. My fee was only 150 baht with them.

the inspection is very basic - check to make sure basic things work like turn signals and stuff.

Insurance - get it once the blue book title is in your name.

One more piece of advice - if you want to simplify things and not go all the way to DLT. There is a registration and inspection station in Jomtien off of Threppasit road. Costs an extra 1000 or so but no lines and they handle everything. They can also do the insurance

Residency certificate in Jomtien is the same day. Drop off request on the morning and pick up at 2pm.

Its easy to do but If you want help, the guys next door can help copy everything, fill out the forms, etc and guide you for like 150 baht.

Anonymous participant that's a good point. Maybe i over reacted.

Anonymous participant I was being sarcastic. Because what would we expect to happen.... I ask random people on fb and then I'm supposed to tell the Thai government officials that they are doing their job incorrectly and to do it the way that some ransom guy on fb says it should be done. I'm sure the government officials will say "I'm sorry, thanks for teaching me how to do me job..."

😂😂😂

AIS doesn't require a work permit for the plan I'm on.... they had several choices. Maybe you're looking at postpaid vs prepaid plans? I know several people with AIS and no work permit.

Mine is 399 baht for 100gb a month at their fastest speed. They had several plans cheaper as well.

@Urs *******

darn.... I wish I asked fb first instead of the officials while doing the ownership transfer

@Toni ******

one year ago is the key point on this since 2024 they have tightened rules

@Urs *******

the car registration people told me that I need new plates because registering in Chon Buri instead of Bangkok... I assumed that this was correct info since it was from the officials but... 😅
