What are the challenges of crossing borders in Southeast Asia on a Thai-registered scooter owned by someone else?
Jock
*****
We just bought a fairly new bike in HCM Vietnam π»π³ then sold it in Danang 6 months later.
We rode fully covered up, long sleeves, pants, gloves, so local police couldn't easily spot the foreigners π
Police will definitely target tourists in the hot spots but they are wel known on social media ie Mui Ne, Danang Beach etc.
Had no troubles whatsoever in the small coastal towns along the way, or inland, as most police cannot speak English and will avoid you.
I personally think it was safer riding in Vietnam than Thailand πΉπ and it's a really great experience touring there on a motorcycle
I believe it's not possible to bring a bike into the country at all.

Your opening line says it all sorry,

Worth a try, if it's not too expensive
Good luck π
Do I need to show monthly income if I have the required 800,000 baht for a retirement visa in Thailand?

Get another agent..fast!
Obviously the one you're using hasn't a clue.
Yes, you need 800k, no you don't need monthly income to show
