Hi!
At the Chiang Khong - Huay Xai crossing to Laos they apparently have it on the computer, online. I had some issues there before. I don´t think it would help if you tell them you lost the white paper "temporary import permit".
But you don't need to worry all that much. The max penalty for overstaying the permit is 2000 Baht, it does not get higher than that.
I know that because a friend of mine has his German - registered BMW in BKK for a full ten years(!!!). He often visits Cambodia on the bike, and every time he gets charged 2000 Baht at the Koh Kong or Poi Pet border. He sometimes has his bike in TH for more than 6 months on his one - month - permit.
This 600 000 Baht fine on the permit is I think applicable if you sell the bike illegally.
