I've never been told if it's illegal to own an imported right drive car here or not, only that it's unpopular.
Is it actually illegal to own a right hand drive vehicle here? I want to say I've heard it is, but am unsure.
Thanks for any info advance
Is right hand drive illegal to own, or just to import?
No. Only RHD motorbikes.
It would seem an odd rule to have on the lawless roads. I've seen a few RHD cars and trucks around, presumably imported from Japan.
I'm sure a few hundred $ would make it go away if it was a law.

They were banned for a few years but the ban was lifted.

All the Poipet - Siem Reap taxis/smugglers are RHD; I always assumed the cars came in from Thailand.

I remember years ago, and may have even posted it, but a yard in SHK was offering a service changing RHD to LHD, presumably with a bamboo broomstick, a few yards of string and some sticky back plastic.

Many old RHDs with RCAF plates, stolen from Thailand you would think. Would be good to import a RHD rally car from Japan like an Evo and go hunting range rovers.
^Actually, that's strangely close the idea I was having, although without the hunting part.

I know what I am talking about as have been hunting big SUVs, here and occasionally in Thailand, with a much safer LHD jap "rally car" USA spec for 6 years now
Problem is, the Evo 4 was never found in US spec and I'm not a big fan of the Evo 8 or 9 honestly.
Kind of a pipe dream though, but I thought it would be fun to have a decent rally car here for next time I come back.

I met with a Japanese import agent today to discuss importing a vehicle from Japan (plus a few other things) and he told me that it's illegal to import right hand drive cars. So much for my plan...

I can solve this problem for you. But depends on your budget.
