Can I apply for a Thai driver's license and TM30 using my International Driving Permit and do I need to wait for my 90-day report?

Take a thai driving license, you could have problems in case of accident with international driving license. It costs less than 5 euros and it is super easy get it. You need only certificate of residence that you can have after you'll have filled the tm30 ( the one online isn't enough, you need to go to immigration to get the paper)

Make a private insurance, not only the government insurance, it costs k for year, but in the worst scenario, you will be always safe, which is the most important thing! Enjoy your trip, and take care!

As long as you have your original drivers license and the IDP you can apply right away or at least close to 45 day mark and I didn’t have any issues in bang Chak

Just get your certification of residence from immigration, also you have to have proper Visa (what I've been told recently) for getting Thai license.

You do not need a 90 days reports, get a tm 30 and your passport, a printed copy of your passport, visa, and visa stamped on passport , 2 printed passport pictures and go to immigration for a residence certificate.

Not sure if tm30 counts as residence proof. You can get a certificate of residence from your own embassy or at immigration department with a tm30.

I got my Thai license 2 months after coming here so I didn't even have to do the 90 day report at that point. Also, I've never had an international driving permit and still got my thai license.

You need to get the 90 day report and get a certificate of residence at the same time.
