Do I need an IDP to apply for a Thai driver's license and how do I add a motorbike designation?

Thailand motorcycle license got how many type of class? Or just 1 license for all kind of bikes and cc?

Where I live, if you show an IDP when you apply, you have to do the emergency stop and depth perseption test, but you dont have to sit through the 1 hour long instruction film, like most thing though I suspect it depends where you apply !

My recent car and motorbike licence application experience, and documents requested:

* Passport

* Visa Certificate

* Medical Certificate

* Host country driving licence with IDP

* Certificate of Residence from Immigration (need Passport, visa, proof of residence, 2 passport photos, and note : you need separate certificates for a car and motorbike licence at 500 THB each)

* Receipt of confirmation that I completed the online driving course-in my phone)

* Completed several practical response tests.

* Collected both car and motorbike licences for 10THB each.

Whole process took about 1.5-2hours.

You should have an IDP issued by the appropriate authority in the country your licence is from. If the IDP shows you have a FULL bike licence (from memory category A) you can get this at the same time

It's easier with a IDP as you don't do the test and the car and bike applications are two separate applications so two of everything, residence certificate, medical, etc.

You need to make a separate license for motorbike & car

All the paperwork requirements along with how to make an appointment and the training video can be found on the DLT website
