Hello everyone, I was wondering if someone could please help me out as I can't seem to find the right information online.
I've got a motorcycle licence from my homecountry and I intend to hire a scooter but I'd of course like to have all of my documents correct
My question is, if I bring my licence could I get an IDP while in Thailand?
Thanks!
TLDR : Answer Summary
To legally drive a scooter in Thailand, you must obtain an International Driving Permit (IDP) from your home country before traveling. An IDP cannot be obtained in Thailand, as it must be issued where your original motorcycle license was granted. While in Thailand, ensure that you carry both your IDP and original license together, as they are required for legal operation of a vehicle.
