You can look in a few places:

1) The pink and blue registration sticker on our front windshield has the expiration date (day, thai month abbreviation, thai year).  For your convenience, when you buy a car from us or renew your registration through us, we provide a registration holding sticker that has the Thai month abbreviation and Bhuddist year conversion for you.

2) Alternatively you can also find the registration renewals records in the back of your blue title book.

3) In most cases the yearly registration expiration date is the same day/year the car was original registered when bought new so you can also see that info on the vehicle info page of your blue title book.

Yes, the vehicle registration will need to be updated with the new engine number.

Tax is calculated by car cylinder capacity–or cc:

First 600 cc: 0.5 baht per CC

601-1800 cc: 1.5 baht per CC

1801+: 4 baht per CC

If the car is more than 5 years old you can calculate a tax deduction:

Year 6: 10%

Year 7: 20%

Year 8: 30%

Year 9: 40%

Year 10+: 50%

Here’s how to calculate. For example, an 11 year old 2,000 CC is going to be (((600 x 0.5) + (1200 x 1.5) + (200 x 4). Then reduce 50% since it’s older than 10 years. The total would be (300+1800+800) – 50% = 1,450 baht.

In addition to the road tax you have to pay for

1. mandatory government insurance called Por.Ro.Bo. (P.R.B) which, for most vehicles is approximately 645 THB (can varies from about 323-1300 THB depending on registration type.)
2. If the car is 7 years or older, 200 THB for a smog and safety inspection.
3. If the car has LPG, than an LPG inspection is also required every year. Cost is approximately 500 THB.
4. If you’d like us to arrange the renewal for you then see here for our service rates.

You need to get a vehicle passport, which will also come with special international license plates and a window sticker.
