Importing a car into Thailand, whether new or used, for personal use or for sale, you must pay taxes and duties. For all foreigners before writing to us the duty and tax on used vehicles is approx 188% min. If you value your car at $2000 it does not necessarily mean your duty will be less as Thai Customs will value on their rates only.

Used vehicles are restricted goods and generally not allowed for importation into Thailand, except for temporary imports as mentioned above or imports under the conditions specified by the Ministry of Commerce.Importer will need to obtain an "Import Permit" from the Ministry of Commerce. Each scheme has its own specific requirements. It is important that the importer should find out whether he can meet those requirements before committing.
