Wife bought car, and want to share the the driving but the thing is I never took license in my own country since I enjoyed the bus or taxi more relaxing and more easy.
So my question is;
So can I take license in Thailand without owning it in my own country? Can anyone guide us?
TIA đ

TLDR : Answer Summary
The individual is inquiring about the process of obtaining a driver's license in Thailand without having one from their home country, as they have never driven before. According to community responses, they need to start from scratch, including learning to drive, passing a written exam, and undergoing a driving test. Additionally, they will require a residence certificate from immigration and a medical certificate. Joining a driving school is recommended to facilitate the process.
Don't know what province you are in but usually there is a driving test centre not far from the DLT ,in Roi et it's basically the other side of the road or Dual carriageway
For non drivers the simplest thing is to sign up for a week of lessons with a driving school. They'll take you through everything including the online test, and if you pass They'll give you a bit of paper to take to the DLT to get a license. You'll still need a residence certificate and medical certificate but it's very straightforward
If you donât have any driving experience either you need to go to a driving school. The process and exams are one thing, but you really need experience to drive in one of the most deadly traffics in the world.
For the license youâll need a residence certificate from the immigration and a doctorâs statement regarding general health condition.
If you want to take both motorcycle and car, youâll need to do two theoretical tests with 50 questions and you need 45 correct answers. After youâll do a practical driving test in the backyard for both.
Then youâll need to watch a movie and do some simple test regarding sight and reaction. If you pass everything youâll get licences for two years. Fee for both is 700-800 thb.
DLT Department of Land and Transportation. The test is in English.
department of land transport. And it's in English but very badly translated. You should research the test before taking it so you know the badly translated questions that are difficult to answer correctly.
Your wife should know the process if she had a driver's license.
Thank you đ another question here in my country we have a fat L on our car for practice, can I as farrang practice driving? Or do I need something for being allowed to practice
