Bonjour,
qui peut me renseigner sur les modalites pour acheter une voiture en Thailande? Un farang a t'il le droit d'en possèder une? Tous les renseignements que vous pourrez me donner a ce sujet, serons les biens venus!!!
Pour information, ce certificat de résidence (ou de domiciliation) est également nécessaire pour la transformation du permis de conduite international en permis Thaï.
En effet, si vous séjournez dans le pays plus de 3 mois par an, le permis de conduire Thaï devient obligatoire et le permis de conduire international n'est plus reconnu par les assurances. Le policier qui fait son contrôle de routine n'y prêtera pas forcément attention, mais le fait de conduire avec un permis international alors que l'on réside dans le pays peut, en cas d'accident, entraîner un refus de prise en charge par les assurances et de ce fait être la source de sérieux ennuis.
Le permis Thaï est très facile à obtenir à partir du permis international : Certificat de résidence (délivré par le service d'immigration sur la base d'un certificat délivré par l'ambassade de France aux personnes inscrites) Photo d'identité Photocopie du passeport ET du visa Photocopie du permis international Certificat médical (à se faire établir dans n'importe quel hôpital) 107 BathsAvec ça, direction le bureau du ministère des transports le plus proche, petit test de vision (points en couleur représentant un chiffre), quelques minutes de patience et vous voilà en possession d'un permis Thaï valable un an (le deuxième sera valable 5 ans) qui vous permet notamment de bénéficier des prix locaux aux entrées des musées, parcs nationaux, etc.
bonjour a toi;😉😉
je tiens vraiment a te remercier pour tout tes precieux conseils, ca fait plaisir😇 d'avoir des renseignements concrets.jE TE SOUHAITE UNE AGREABLE JOURNEE.ICI IL FAIT 1 DEGRE ET IL Y A DE LA NEIGE FONDU.SUPER!!!🙁🏴☠️
Salut, hoppla😉
merci, c'est tres complét, avec tout tes renseignements on va pouvoir avancer.Peut tu me dire en moyenne combien coute un scooter ou une voiture?😄
Ca doit te changer de ton alsace😊 veinard!!!😏😏
Scooter ou voiture, tout dépend de la marque. Les voitures japonaises sont généralement beaucoup moins chères qu'en Europe et inversement, les voitures européennes sont beaucoup plus chères en Thaïlande. La cause : les taxes d'importation.
Un scooter de 100 ou 125 cm3 coûte environ 40000 à 50000 Baths (aux alentours de 1000 Euros).
Une voiture, par exemple un Pick-up Isuzu modèle Dmax 3.0 4x4 4 portes diesel coûte 800 000 Baths
(16 000 Euros contre 28 000 Euros en France le même modèle). Une Honda Jazz coûte environ 500 000 Baths
(10 000 Euros).
Les tarifs se trouvent d'ailleurs sur les sites web des constructeurs Isuzu, Toyota, Honda, etc.
Il faut de toute façon préférer un modèle courant, moins de problème de dépannage surtout si on prévoit de voyager (tu a déjà essayé de faire réparer un camion Haino au fin fond de la Lozère ?). Isuzu et Toyota sont les marques les plus représentées dans le pays.
En scooter, il y a essentiellement Yamaha et Honda.
ATTENTION : il faut un permis pour le scooter et UN AUTRE permis pour la voiture.
Une bonne assurance pour le pick-up coûte environ 16000 Baths par an, à quoi il faut ajouter 7000 Baths de vignette (eh oui, ici elle existe encore).
petit test de vision (points en couleur représentant un chiffre),
He bien ça y est je ne pourrais jamais avoir de permis Thaï car je suis Daltonien et avec le test des points de couleurs pour moi c'est rappé: je ne vois jamais les chiffres😠 chaque fois qu'on me demande d'annoncer ce que je vois je dis "des points de couleurs"🙂. Heureusement qu'en France il n'y a pas ce test😉
Si tu veux t'acheter la moto "passe-partout" 100cc avec les freins a "tambour" et le demarreur au pied, ca coute 32.000 bath chez H.... (Jap) . http://203.147.4.235/...te/exchange_rate.htm
J'ai achete mon pick-up F... (US) l'annee derniere (4 places, air-co, radio-K7, dir. ass., 2500 cc, 90 cv, peint. metall., ..., pour 485.000 bath et crois-moi, ca va bien. Ca consomme 9.08/100 km a 24.70 bath/L. Qui dit mieux ?
Mon "chopper" H.... (Jap), je l'ai paye + ou - 90.000 bath et ca va bien aussi et meme tres bien. L'assurance du pick-up, je l'ai eu gratuite a l'achat mais c'etait 19.900 bath. La taxe de circulation (vignette), 5600 bath.
Le "chopper" :250 bath d'assurance et 120 bath de taxe de circulation (A PEU PRES).
Voila les prix d'ici mais, attention, ce n'est pas une raison pour gaspiller le carburant.
hopla, gott werdamm me!!! noch a mal.
ok, je pense que je vais accélerer notre depart;
la france c'est pas mal mais en touriste.Qelles genres de taxes existe t'il encore a part ça?Les thais sont ils agréables avec les pharangs expatriés? Comment fais tu
pour tes visas?A bientot.
Pour le visa, mon épouse est thaïlandaise et je bénéficie d'un visa "non immigrant" valable un an et renouvelable tous les ans sous conditions de ressources.
Ce type de visa est accessibles à deux catégories de personnes : ceux qui sont mariés avec un ressortissant Thaï (mon cas) et les retraités (en résumé : âge minimum 50 ans, au moins 800 000 Baths de revenu annuel).
Sinon, la seule solution est le visa de tourisme (maximum 60 jours, on peut tirer sur 2x60 en prenant un multi-entry) ou le visa professionnel. Tu trouveras tous les renseignements et les formalités sur le site du ministère thaïlandais des affaires étrangères : http://www.mfa.go.th/web/12.php#Type
merci, à nouveau, Thailsacien et pacali, je souhaiterais, connaitre aussi les modalités légales d'achat d'une, maison, mon fils vient d'épouser une jeune femme Thailandaise, et donc se trouve dans le mème cas de figure que vous, merci de bien vouloir me renseigner à ce sujet.
une auto c'est une chose une maison c'est autre chose, , les 4 roues peut appartenir a un farang, , la terre thai appartiens aux thais, , ( et tant mieux ), ,
en cas de mariage farang thai, , la damne peut acheter, , mais il faut que monsieur fasse une declaration de non droit, , ( c'est a dire que madame possède tout, , , , , ) ce qui donne a réfléchir, ,
ne pas oublier que il y a des statistiques de divorce a l'ambassade de France, , elle dépasse les 80% ..

Oui, il est possible d'acheter une maison sous certaines conditions.
La maison sera malheureusement enregistree sous le nom de son epouse mais le mari, pour se mettre a l'abri, lui fait signer un contract leasing de 30 (trente) ans renouvelable.
Par contre, peut être propriétaire d'un appartement (condominium en Thaïlande), sous réserve que 51% de l'immeuble appartienne à des Thaïs.
Un étranger peut être propriéaire d'un terrain d'une surface maximale de 1 rai (16000 m²) à conditions d'investir au moins 40 millions de Baths dans une entreprise en Thaïlande.
C'est vrai que le contrat de 30 ans devant notaire est une solution adoptée par de nombreux couples mixtes. Une autre solution consiste aussi à mette le bien immobilier au nom des enfants (s'ils sont bi-nationaux).
La solution la plus classique pour acheter une maison en thailande, c'est de créer une société thailandaise dont tu detiens 49% et dont des partenaires thais (fournis par ton avocat ou autre) detiennent 51%. Mais l'astuce c que tu detiens une tres large majorité des droits de vote, ce qui fait que tu fais ce que tu veux. Ensuite, tu loues le terrain (et la maison) a cette societe qui elle meme t'appartient. Certains pousseraint le vice jusqu'a creer une autre societe thai (51/49) qui elle meme detient 49% de la societe qui detient le terrain.
C'est un montage tres classique.

Ca varie du simple au triple (voire plus) suivant la situation. Phuket est un des endroits les plus chers de Thailande. Par contre, en plein milieu de l'Issan, cela coute trois fois rien. Chiang Mai n'est pas trop cher non plus.
A Phuket, il est devenu impossible de trouver une maison un peu convenable au-dessous de 50, 000 euros.
petite rectification : 1 rai = 1600 m² (et non pas 16000 comme j'avais mis par erreur dans mon message précédent).
Les unités de mesure de surface de terrain en Thaïlande sont :
le tarang wah (ou wah carré = 4 m²)
le ngan (1 ngan = 100 tarang wah, soit 400 m²)
le rai (1 rai = 4 ngan, soit 400 tarang wah ou encore 1600 m²)
Vous avez tout compris ?
Bon, et bien il ne reste plus qu'à trouver le terrain, la maison et le notaire maintenant 😉

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for addresses for guesthouses or, even better, houseboats or rafting houses on the River Kwai, between Kanchanaburi and Sangkhlaburi, to spend a few weeks contemplating this beautiful river.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Hi there,
we’re currently in Mai Chau and tomorrow we’re hitting the road back to Hanoi to head up toward Bac Ha and Sapa.
We haven’t really had a set plan since we arrived—we’ve already done the Halong Bay on land and by sea.
I’ve got 2 free days before heading to Bac Ha and Sapa.
Any tips?
Thanks, and looking forward to hearing from you.
Hi fellow travelers,
First trip to Vietnam.
We’ll be arriving in Ho Chi Minh City during Tet.
Is it complicated to find accommodation and get around during this period?
Any tips would be welcome.
Thanks for your replies.
Silly question—backpack or hard-shell suitcase for the Sepilok, Kinabatangan, Tioman, KL trip?
I’m struggling to fit all my son’s and my stuff into the 70L backpack... and I’m thinking a suitcase would be easier, but I’m not sure if it’ll work for getting around.
Hi there,
I didn’t plan to return to Thailand this year, but my health conditions mean it’ll be the best place for me to stay between two trips to India. The tourism setup there is so well-organized that it’s the most "comfortable" country for a short visit. Thailand feels too sanitized for my taste, and there’s too much religion, Buddha, and the King, but it’s still the best option given how my health has been evolving. I’d considered two weeks in ThaTon for hiking, but I got too sick from the burn-offs during my trips to the mountains around Chiang Rai. So I’m not sure where to go this year. Definitely not the sea, touristy spots, or the mountains with burn-offs...
Hello.
In 1996, we crossed Vietnam from Saigon to Hanoi by motorbike—Minsk bikes we bought in Saigon. I haven’t been back since, and it seems like a lot has changed.
- We’re heading to the south (well, the north and center) with the family in July-August (3 people).
- Is the road network more developed now? Back then, there was only National Route 1 from south to north. I’m thinking of renting a car this time (no motorbike with the family—though in ’96, they had a Jawa sidecar for sale, and we hesitated… maybe it’s for the best).
- Is Halong Bay really something to avoid because of overtourism? Even back then, it was pretty crowded. Is there a less touristy alternative?
- We’ll be traveling from Hanoi down to Danang (the only city we didn’t stop in back in ’96). Even though it’s a bit overhyped in a Chinese-tourist kind of way (from what I’ve read), we’re only going for the beach—pure relaxation for 7 days. The beaches are stunning, and I know the South China Sea is warm like coffee.
- Then, we’ll visit Hoi An, where I stopped in ’96. It was already popular with backpackers back then, but no glowing boats or all the touristy fuss!
- After that, Hue, where I have great memories—it’s a beautiful city.
- And also the nature around Ninh Binh, followed by 2-3 days in Hanoi.
That’s the plan. I’d love to hear any tips to avoid mass tourism, and if anyone’s done this before:
- Is it possible to rent a car in Danang and drop it off in Hanoi?
Hey everyone,
I’m over in East Borneo in mid-July.
I’m struggling to wrap up the end of my itinerary, even though it’s pretty straightforward (long but simple).
Last year, we did Malaysia (KL and the mainland + around Kuching).
Day 1 – Arrive in Kota Kinabalu early, stroll around town and hit the must-sees.
Day 2 – Excursion to Tunku Abdul Rahman Park, snorkeling at 3 islands.
Day 3 – Hike around Mount Kinabalu without summiting (450 per person, no way).
Day 4 – Poring Hot Springs + evening flight to Sandakan.
Day 5-6-7 – Kinabatangan River (still looking for the right guide).
Day 8 – Sepilok for the orangutans, the Sun Bear Centre, and Rainforest Discovery Centre.
Day 9 – Selingan, turtle island.
Day 10 – Head to Semporna.
Day 11-12-13-14 – Sipadan, Mabul, Kapalai.
Day 15 – Bohey Dulang.
Day 16 to Day 25: I’M STUCK.
I looked into Danum Valley, but for 3 days/2 nights, they’re quoting 650 € per person—come on, that’s ridiculous.
I checked out a detour into Indonesia (still East Borneo), but I’m having trouble deciding what would be amazing.
I read about Sangalaki + Kakaban (2 islands, 1 base) / Mahakam Delta - Kutai (orangutans and river) / Sungai Boh (Dayak Kayan) – jungle & culture.
But honestly, I’m struggling to finalize this itinerary.
If we venture that way, we’d head back to KK from Balikpapan.
For a 4-month stay in Egypt, I had ENORMOUS problems. The regulations are very bureaucratic and extremely nitpicky there. For a 4-month stay in the Philippines, I was wondering if the procedures are just as complicated? I’m bringing my cell phone with an eSIM. Should I choose a plan from Canada for use in the Philippines, or should I get a plan only once I arrive? After 30 days, do I renew with the Canadian provider I chose before leaving, or do I switch to a local company? Do I need to register my phone with the authorities in the Philippines? (That was the case in Egypt.) For the 3rd and 4th months, will it be just as simple—renewing with a Canadian or local provider—or should I expect problems?
Hello,
I’ll be in Malaysia with my wife, mainly in Langkawi and Penang for Christmas and New Year’s at the end of 2026.
If you’ve had the experience—and since I’ve read (though it’s not very clear) that these two islands get quite crowded during this period—would you recommend booking accommodation well in advance, or is it easy to find something on the spot?
Hotels or Airbnb?
Do you have any great tips for accommodation or any practical info to share?
We’ll be staying 5 to 7 days on each island.
Thanks in advance for your replies
Hi there. To make the most of Lake Toba, is it better to find accommodation on the lake’s shores (which one?) or on Samosir Island? Thanks for your tips!
Hi there,
We’re heading to Vietnam as a family on July 8th for a little over 3 weeks (north and center). We’ve only booked the first 3 nights in Hanoi, and nothing else after that. We like to decide things on the spot and go with the flow, without rushing everywhere. But I’m still a bit unsure: when heading down to the center (Hue), is it better to book the overnight trains in advance? We don’t want to take any flights while we’re there—just use the overnight train for the long trips. But I’m worried we won’t get seats if we buy the tickets on the spot, say, 2 days before. What do the experts here think? And which website can we use to book the tickets? Thanks in advance for your tips!
Hi everyone!
I’m heading back to Thailand in July 2026 with a stopover in Cambodia to visit the Angkor site.
After Angkor, I’ve booked a stay on Ko Chang island. Does anyone know if there are direct transport options from Cambodia to Ko Chang without having to go back through Bangkok? That would be amazing!!
I think there are, but I’d need more details!!
I went to Thailand in February 2025 and don’t remember having to apply for a visa—is that still the case now? And for Cambodia too?
Thanks so much!!!

I’d love to get some feedback on our itinerary—it’s probably pretty basic! This is our second trip to Asia and our first to Indonesia. We have three kids aged 20, 18, and 12. We land in Jakarta at 4 PM, spend 3 nights/2 days there, then take the train to Yogyakarta for 3 nights/2 days, followed by the train to Surabaya for 2 nights/1 day, then the train to Bromo for 1 day/1 night, a private driver to Ijen for 2 nights/2 days, then on to Bali (Ubud) for 4 nights/3 days, followed by Gili Air for 3 nights/2 days, Senggigi (Lombok) for 2 nights, and finally 5 nights in Kuta. I’m considering cutting the 2 nights in Senggigi to just keep Kuta and extend it to 7 nights. In Lombok, I’m not sure how to get around since I’m not comfortable with scooters... Your thoughts on all of this, and any advice, are more than welcome—don’t hesitate!
For those wondering why cities like Jakarta and Surabaya: we don’t often get the chance to visit big Asian cities, so we wanted to include that discovery in our trip. The trains between Jakarta and Yogyakarta, Surabaya and Probolinggo are booked. The return flight from Lombok to Jakarta is also set. Accommodations are booked but flexible (same for the trains).
Hi,
After our trip to China, we want to spend a week in the Philippines for some beach time and snorkeling.
We're looking for the best spot to settle in—nice beaches, great marine life, and short transfer times.
Thanks for your suggestions!
Does anyone know of a private transfer or taxi company that organizes transfers from the Sukhothai area to Chiang Mai?
Our routes are Sukhothai-Lampang, Lampang-Chom Thong, and Chom Thong-Chiang Mai.
My searches on Google Maps, 12Go, and others haven’t turned up much...
For our Bangkok-Sukhothai trips, I use a company I’ve already tried, but they don’t have a fleet available from Sukhothai and have to go through third-party companies—which, understandably, take their commission. This nearly doubles the prices...
There are four of us, and we’re not traveling light, so a minibus isn’t an option. ;-)
Hello,
While traveling in Thailand, I’m looking for a Buddhist kumlai reed bracelet.
Does anyone know where I can find one?
In Bangkok, I visited a few temples but didn’t see any in the nearby shops.
If you have any ideas, I’d love to hear them! Have a great day! :-)
My trip’s coming up, and I’m having a bit of trouble with three bus/minivan routes. Usually, I find everything at this time of year, but this time—yikes!
Sandakan → Sepilok:
No app for this one—you just hop on bus #14 at the local terminal (pay cash on board). But where do I catch it, and where’s the stop??
Sandakan → Semporna:
From what I’ve heard, it’s the Sida Express company (great name, right? 😄).
Can’t book online, but apparently, you *have* to because there’s only one bus at 8 AM.
Where do I board, and where does it drop me off?
Semporna → Tawau:
Found this via AI—is it legit?
No online booking, as far as I can tell.
Minivans leave from a stop in the Jalan Hospital area, near the Milimewa supermarket, supposedly????
And when you arrive, does it drop you at **Sabindo Square** in Tawau?????
Hi there,
we’ll be in Mai Chau in June and we’re thinking of heading to Sapa, but first spending a few days in Bac Ha to do some hiking and explore the area.
Is this a good idea for those who’ve been there?
How do you get there?
Thanks for your feedback.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Cédric.
Hi everyone. As I’m planning my trip for next winter, I’m looking for hotel suggestions in Camotes, Bantayan, Malapascua, Bohol, and Siquijor. The ones I had in mind seem to be fully booked (unless it’s too early?). For those familiar with the area, is it easy to find accommodations on the spot in January/February? I’m specifically looking for hotels with a pool, beachfront, air conditioning, and easy scooter rental nearby. Thanks for your tips!
Hi there,
I’m planning an itinerary and would love some feedback on whether it’s doable and if the number of days per destination is enough—or too much. I was also debating whether to add an extra night on an island or spend an extra night in Kampot to visit Kep or Battambang.
March 23: Arrival in Phnom Penh in the morning
March 24: Phnom Penh
March 25: Phnom Penh
March 26: Depart for Kampot
March 27: Kampot
March 28: Depart for Battambang
March 29: Battambang
March 30: Tonlé SAP to Siem Reap
March 31: Siem Reap
April 1: Siem Reap
April 2: Siem Reap
April 3: Siem Reap
April 4: Siem Reap
April 5: Departure
Hi there,
Yesterday in the Thailand section, 100% of the new threads were just about beach destinations 😕...
So here’s the counterattack in the form of this photo thread, dedicated solely to the countryside: the locals, their livestock, fields, farms, rice paddies, small rivers, and agricultural machinery. If you’ve got any pictures that fit these categories, feel free to add them!
Comments welcome.
For each photo, I’ll (or you can) indicate the area where it was taken.
Hope you're all doing well! It's been a while since I last traveled, but I'm finally heading out again soon!
For those familiar with SOUTHEAST ASIA, I'm planning to leave in mid-June (with the trip ending at the latest in November), and I don’t have a precise idea of exact places or itineraries yet. The thing is, this period is usually the rainy season...
Any advice? I was thinking of Malaysia or Indonesia, like Sulawesi, for example (all countries and islands in Southeast Asia interest me except Bali).
Any recommendations? I’m doing my research online, but if anyone here has the time and knowledge, I’d love to hear from you.
My partner and I are planning a trip to Indonesia in September-October 2026. It’ll be our first time in Asia, and we’re thinking of hitting the classic spots in East Java and Bali, then wrapping up with a cruise around Komodo for some snorkeling/diving. Here’s a rough draft of our itinerary—I’m wondering if it’s doable.

21/09: Borobudur
22/09: Prambanan
23/09: Travel to Bromo (Cemoro Lawang)
24/09: Bromo
25/09: Kawa Ijen
26/09: Travel to Bali, overnight in Pemuteran
27/09: Excursion to Pulau Melujan, overnight in Pemuteran
28/09: Travel to Munduk, overnight in Munduk
29/09: Explore Munduk and surroundings, overnight in Munduk

04/10: Travel to Denpasar, flight to Labuan Bajo, overnight in Labuan Bajo
05/10: Komodo cruise
06/10: Komodo cruise
07/10: Komodo cruise, flight to Denpasar in the late afternoon/evening or overnight in Labuan Bajo.
08/10: Flight to Denpasar (if not taken the day before), afternoon in Jimbaran, overnight near Denpasar
09/10: 10:00 AM flight Denpasar - SIN, overnight in Singapore
10/10: Flight SIN-YQB
Hi everyone,
My girlfriend and I booked our tickets with Saudia Airlines for a trip to Thailand this summer, from July 5th to August 3rd. Given the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, we’re keeping a close eye on the news.
I was wondering if anyone here is in the same situation as us?
• Have you heard anything about possible mass cancellations or if the airline is still maintaining its routes to Asia?
• Are there any travelers who’ve recently returned who could tell us if air corridors have been changed (longer flight times)?
The idea is to know what to expect so we can prepare as best as possible. Thanks for your replies! !
Thanks for all your contributions on the forum—they’ve really helped me plan my trip. There are four of us friends heading to Sulawesi for 20 days. Based on all your advice, I’ve put together the following itinerary:
July 30: Makassar – sightseeing
July 31: Makassar – sightseeing + overnight bus to Rantepao
August 1–7: Tana Toraja with a guide
August 7: Tana Toraja to Tentena + visit Tentena
August 8: Early departure with a private driver to Ampana, then ferry to the Togian Islands
August 9–15: Togian Islands (2 different resorts)
August 15: Depart Togian Islands for Luwuk
August 16: Flight Luwuk to Makassar
August 17: Rammang Rammang
August 18: Stroll in Makassar, then return home
Overall, what do you think?
I also have a question about the connection between Tentena and the Togian Islands: Is it doable to leave early in the morning as planned and still be sure not to miss the ferry?
Hi everyone,
I’m currently working on a 30-day itinerary for May/June 2027.
10 days in eastern Java (Malang, Bromo, waterfalls, Meru Beriti Park, Banyuwangi, and Ijen), a short transit in Ubud for a few days, then Flores before heading back to Jakarta.
We’ll spend 15 days in Flores (the classic route: Moni, Bajawa, Riung, Ruteng, ending in Labuan Bajo).
I’d love some firsthand feedback on flights to Maumere or Ende from Bali Denpasar. I know there are no direct routes and that you have to connect through Labuan Bajo or Timor (I think), which isn’t an issue in itself.
But I’ve read here and there that flights to these destinations can be delayed—or worse, canceled—and that it’s better to fly in and out of Labuan Bajo, which isn’t exactly ideal...
Thanks for any tips or experiences you can share!
