Hi guys if I managed to get original grant from bank, do I need letter of authorization from the bank to authorize me to bring the car into Thailand?

Hi there,

letter of authorization is needed when the car owner is not with you in the journey.

Example,

Case 1:
Car owner is A, driver is B, Passenger in the car is A, B, C, D, and E
No letter of authorize require.

Case 2:
Car owner is A, driver is B, Passenger in the car is B, C, D, and E
Letter of authorization is require.

Thanks, looks like I'll need to ask my bank loan rep to issue a letter for me then. ohmy.gif

If you are the car owner then there is no need of authorization letter. Just present urself with the original garan, let the custom know ur car color and how many ppl in ur car (including u).

If you borrow the car then u will need the authorization letter from the owner and that particular car's owner IC photo copy.

Problem is my grant is under public bank name lol. They said after I settled loan only can change the name on the grant... so I’ll likely need letter of authorization

you mean u are paying the loan to public bank rite? actually you as a car owner can request back the car geran from them. They will give back you the original geran.

Yeah my car loan is with Public Bank, I asked for the grant but I also have a photocopy, the grant shows vehicle name is under "PUBLIC BANK BERHAD", not my name, so I'd still need letter of authorization unfortunately... No wonder they would gladly give me the grant since it's under their name not mine. mega_shok.gif

Not sure. Likely new rule by PBB since Chinaman bank damn cowardly. My loan took 2 appeals to go through as well so I wasn't surprised when the grant is under their name not mine. bangwall.gif

In the list, is Thailand insurance different from the Malaysian insurance extension/endorsement?

I bought endorsement so my car insurance now covers Thailand during my period of travel, do I still need this Thailand insurance thing?

You will still need Thailand insurance, is compulsory in Thailand.

Example case,

-with Thailand insurance (cover Thailand vehicle only)
you get involve in accident with Thai vehicle, usually Thai vehicle need compensate if is your fault. So this insurance will pay for them.
Another thing is, even know u buy extension/endorsement in msia, some insurance company wont cover Thailand vehicle, hence why is this important.

-with Msia insurance extension/endorsement for Thailand
like case above, if you are victim, your insurance in msia will cover for you.
If you no buy, u gg if shit happen in Thai, you gonna fork out your own money to fix your car.

Hope these help  smile.gif

Oh I see, so Thai insurance is to protect Thai vehicles whereas our own insurance extension is to cover our own vehicle in case of any misfortunes. Thanks for clarifying this! biggrin.gif
