How to Sell Your Car to An Individual

Selling your car, yourself to an individual has advantages. What price to fix? How to proceed with the sale, and what are the administrative procedures to be carried. in some cases where the seller cannot find individuals to sale the care to, the seller can contact the car pledge (รับจำนำรถยนต์ which is a term in Thai) site or stores which renders all kinds of car sales help.

Choose the Price

To determine the best price to sell a vehicle from one to ten years old, the easiest way is to use the Argus rating. This is relatively low but provides a reliable benchmark for the buyer. The seller can also decide to increase this base price based on different criteria (low mileage, body condition, options).

Documents and Procedures

Several documents must be given to the purchaser when selling a car, the registration certificate (registration card ), the official status certificate ( non-pledge certificate ), as well as a copy of the CERFA form declaration of the transfer.

If the vehicle is more than four years old and is not exempt from technical inspection, the seller must also provide proof of this inspection dating back less than six months. Barring exceptions, it is not possible to sell your car without a technical inspection.

You can consult the list of documents to sell a car for a whole point on the parts to obtain before the sale.

Also, the delivery of the maintenance booklet guarantees the mileage to the buyer (scams in this area are unfortunately not rare), as well as the proper maintenance of the vehicle. Better to give it to him too.

Declaration of Assignment

In the list of documents to be drawn up during the sale, the seller and the buyer must complete and sign a declaration of transfer drawn up in two copies (each party keeps one).

After the transfer, the seller must declare the sale of the vehicle to the administration. Previously, he had to send a copy of the declaration of transfer (in original) to the prefecture within 15 days.

Payment

In terms of payment, the seller must take maximum precautions. In practice, payment by bank check is most often requested. It is also very rare for sellers to accept payments in instalments… but the seller can always offer payment of a deposit to reserve the vehicle before its sale.
