Can I renew my Thai driver's license for 5 years at a different DLT area if I have a temporary license expiring in September 2026?

The user inquires about renewing a Thai driver's license currently issued for 2 years and expiring in September 2026, asking if they can renew it for 5 years at a different DLT office despite originally obtaining it in Bangkok DLT area 3. Comments indicate that licenses can be renewed at any DLT office, but the duration of the renewal (2 or 5 years) depends on the visa type held by the applicant, with 5-year licenses typically reserved for those on certain longer-term visas like a NON-class visa.
