I hope to be buying a bike from another province very soon.
When it comes to registering change of ownership, what I’ve read makes me think there might be a small problem.
I understand that I can either :-
a) arrange for both buyer & seller to be present at the same time to sign documents. I can’t really ask the seller to travel to my home province even though it’s not far away. If we signed documents in the current province of registration, I’d have to provide an address in that province, but I can’t see this is an easy option - could I use my out-of-province home address for this? Seller’s province is Udon Thani, mine is neighbouring Khon Kaen.
or
b) get the seller to sign a “Power of Attorney” form so that the change of ownership can be made without him needing to be present. This sounds an easier choice.
So my questions concern the “Power of Attorney” form – is this a standard form available at the vehicle registration office? Is there a link to the form so that I can print one off for signing?
I know I can continue using the bike, taxing/insuring it etc., without registering a change of ownership but I don’t want to take that route.
Thanks for any advice.
