TLDR : Answer Summary
Thai citizens can obtain an International Driver's Permit (IDP) by applying at the driving license center in Thailand, similar to the process that foreigners follow. They will need to provide their Thai ID or passport along with a blue house registration book (tabian bahn). The IDP is usually valid for up to six months in many countries, but specific regulations may vary depending on the country or region.
Any DLT can issue them. Thais and Foriegners need to have a full 5 year drivers license, they will not issue an IDP on a temporary 2 year drivers license.
