Enter Thailand With Your Own Vehicle — Without the Stress or Guesswork

When I reached Asia at Malaysia I got various informations about what is necessary to enter Thailand with my own motorcycle. I tried my luck at the border, with the result of being refused, because I did not file for the FPV. The officials there gave me Tom's contact. His Agency was supposed to help me with that paperwork. No - not only Tom help me, he made the impossible possible, organized everything as quick as I couldn’t believe, texted me late at night to make sure we don’t loose time and within a week me AND my bike entered Thailand legally! But the story doesn’t end here: since Tom is a biker himself, we stays in contact; he was a great help as well for the border crossings to Cambodia and Laos later ( recommended which border crossing to use, helped to fill out forms, gave me links to necessary Government- pages etc…) And when I visited Chiang Mai, we even met for a beer, had a great talk, I saw his bike and even got to know his sweet family! As soon as you realize, the only way to get in and out of Thailand without the stress of „not having all legal documents- I could be refused at the border to get in or out“ - you will admit to yourself, the costs for Toms service are well worth the peace of mind! The rest comes as a free bonus. Thank you Tom - you made my trip a lot better / easier.

Tom assisted us with our FVP when we were in a bind at the Malay-Thai border. Fortunately, he was able to expedite our application given there were other applicants he was assisting at the same time as us. His communication was timely, and he could answer all of our questions. The whole process felt under control, and we had no worries driving around Thailand given our legality to be there. We were also able to extend our 30 day TIP with customs with our FVP. In hindsight, I wish we had a simpler process to sort out Thai regulations and who to contact when we first tried to cross into Thailand, so when Chris and Tim mentioned to us their plan to build this website, we were ecstatic. Great idea, and I hope it helps everyone else, too

Can't recommend highly enough with the service we received crossing into Thailand from Malaysia. We were very tight time wise, and we were lucky to get our FVP within 3 days. In hindsight, I wish we had organised it before we crossed the border. These guys have a wealth of knowledge about the FVP and temporary import permits and border crossings in general. Thanks so much for your help in a stressful situation.

In 2024 when crossing back into Thailand from Laos, we were informed by customs of new regulations when bringing a foreign motorcycle into Thailand. We needed to provide a FVP – Foreign Vehicle Permit via a registered tour agency to be able to bring our bike into the country. This caught us by surprise as just eight weeks prior we had entered Thailand from Malaysia using a standard Temporary Import document, however this was no longer a valid option. This left us in a very stressful position and every bikers worst nightmare.. we had to leave our bike in no man's land while we desperately sourced help with getting an FVP. Thanks to the amazing contacts here who made the whole process so easy and provided so much support we managed to secure our FVP with no issues and our bike made it with us to Thailand! For every biker out there to avoid being in a situation like we were get your FVP here now!

Tom was referred to me by a fellow biker and was very helpful and professional. Getting the FVP is quite a process in Thailand. Paying for it was also a bit of a mission (prior to the online payment form on this website) but Tom got it all done. Communication was excellent and he went out of his way to make work. Highly recommended!
