Is it possible to apply for a Thai driver's license in Bangkok now, considering current office closures?
Have a quick question. Is it possible to apply for a Thai driver's license in Bangkok now? Have read some conflicting information about offices being closed.
Answer summary
The inquiry is about the possibility of applying for a Thai driver's license in Bangkok amid reports of office closures. Comments indicate that as of mid-May 2021, the Department of Land Transport (DLT) was closed but is expected to reopen on June 1st.

Before wave 3 DLT was open, not sure if it's changed in the last two weeks though.
You do need to make an appointment for a new license, foriegners can't use the online system you need to go in person and make an appointment.
