Anybody heard about this? Somebody told me it came up on his Faybook feed today.
Would be a good idea but last I heard it wasn't possible with 2nd hand motorbikes.
Vehicle Ownership must Be in your Name by end of June??

Last weekend, 20th June 2020, I bought a secondhand moto for a Cambodian friend living some 30 + km from Siem Reap and she is going through this process now. She has been told that it takes "half a month" for her to get the new/replacement registration card in her name. So clearly it applies country wide at the moment.
And, yes, the initial period of grace in which to get this done is until the end of July 2020 as far as I can tell. But I suspect, as with most such mandatory dates, it will be extended because of the huge number of secondhand vehicles that need to have their registration cards brought up to date. But don't bank on it as I also suspect there will be a high fee for "late" re-registrations/registration card updates.

As predicted in my earlier posting, the deadline for re-registering vehicles in to the current owner's name has been extended. But after this revised cut off date for re-registration the process becomes more onerous, and may even be impossible in some cases, as the whereabouts of the former owner may well be unknown or even deceased. So snap to it while you can.

And, yes the system appears to be working as she now has an interim paper change of registration to her name.

I asked about transferring a car and a fixer said it’d cost $400. Totally not worth it.
He also said it’s not mandatory and the government hasn’t said or hinted that it will ever become law.
Besides, barang can’t have motos in their name anyway.

But still not possible to register a second hand vehicle as a foreigner?

What I think I understand is this deadline applies to cars only and to Khmers only for who knows what
You can now get a motorbike in your name as a foreigner but both you and the seller must go to the ministry/department.
Easiest thing is call Matt at CNM motors. He has people who can help for a very reasonable price.

Keep to the smaller streets, go slow, have a vehicle with proper acceleration.
Nothing further.

Or just get legal.
I've spent enough time on the wrong side of the law so that I now enjoy being able to say to petty officials and uniformed types, yep I got that; yep I've paid that now do one you wee nyaff.

I am totally following the law, and driving the same piece of cheap shxt moto for 10 years too. But they are hungry, those fxckers, and my Khmer is not fluent.
