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 the possibility of renewing their temporary Thai driver's license for 5 years at a different Department of Land Transport (DLT) area, despite their current license expiring in September 2026. The comments clarify that renewal can occur at any DLT office, but the license duration (2 or 5 years) depends on the type of visa held by the applicant, with a 5-year license being available for NON class visas, and only a 2-year license for those on a tourist visa.
