Authorities in Phuket conducted checks on motorcycle rental points.

On August 17, authorities in Phuket conducted a check of nine motorcycle rental points in the Kharon area. The inspection involved police, immigration, and administrative services.

The main focus was on the business structure, owners, and managers, financial documents, accounting, and sources of investment. During the inspection, violations were found at some of the motorcycle rental points.

Specifically, some owners did not provide complete information about their income sources and the legality of their business. The police also noted the absence of necessary documents for legal operation of motorcycles.

Based on the results of the inspection, orders were issued to rectify the identified violations. Owners were asked to bring their documents into compliance with legislation and ensure customer safety.

In case of non-compliance with requirements, owners may be fined or closed down. This check is part of a broader plan to improve safety in Phuket and increase the legality of the transport rental business sector.

Authorities continue to work on creating a more effective control and regulatory system to ensure safety for all residents and visitors of the island.
