Palatkik Posted July 29, 2002 Report Share Posted July 29, 2002 I generally leave all this to my better half, but was just curious about exactly what is needed and if I have forgotten anything ? I have included rough prices for what it costs for a 1.6L 4door family car. I have often wondered what item 4/ is all about. Something to do with insurance I believe- can anyone add anything? 1/ Driving license 2/ Vehicle log book 3/ Road tax ~1600B/yr 4 /PorLorBor ~860B/yr 5/ Full third party car insurance ~16000B/yr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Por lor bor or Por Ror Bor is a document issued by your auto insurance company that states your insurance meets the basic requirements of the law. Por Lor Bor refers to the statute or law that shows the requirements. Or at least that is what I am told... Re: the 2-100 baht notes-- probably the most important documents you need to carry in your car when you drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatbastard Posted August 3, 2002 Report Share Posted August 3, 2002 #4 is just the compulsory third party insurance and will vary a bit depending on engine size. Re the 100 baht to the police, I used to pay it over but now prefer to argue the point if I am in the right.. They always let me go, I know its a pittance but the only way to eliminate corruption is to refuse to take part in it. I prefer to take a regular ticket than part over to the "highway robbers" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 3, 2002 Report Share Posted August 3, 2002 I may be wrong, but #5 is only compulsory if the car is in your name. If it is in the Mrs's then you only need#4. Mind you, if it is not compulsory it is certainly necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickfarang Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question, but what is this about? 2/ Vehicle log book Our family vehicle is a motobike, do all five of these documents apply to motorbikes? Its in my wife's name. RickF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatbastard Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 The first four apply to all vehicles, the last (full insurance) is optional and i would suspect that only 20% of the vehicles have it, thats why its a good idea for you to (if you have a car)but almost impossible to get for motorcycles.
