TLDR : Answer Summary

To re-issue a lost Thai driving license, visit the Department of Land Transport (DLT) with your passport and ID. You'll need photocopies of your passport and visa page, which can be done at a photocopy shop located on the same floor as the DLT. There is no requirement for a police report in most regions, although Pattaya may ask for one. Expect a nominal fee of around 100 Baht and be aware that the exact process can vary by location.

I lost mine a few months ago.

1: Go to the DLT with passport/ID.

2: Tell the info desk. (You will be directed to the correct booth).

3: Give passport to the booth (oh and you will need to get photocopies of your passport and (I think) your visa page. can't recall exactly, sorry - but easy to do at the DLT. Photocopy place is on same floor). Hand in passport and photocopies, then wait.

4: get called to confirm documents and pay (nominal amount. Like 100 Baht or so)

5: wait in queue for new photo

6: get photo and then license will be handed to you within minutes.

- Best to go early imo.

(No police report or other documents required)

FYI. - this is the system in Chiang Mai btw. I can't speak for other areas but can only assume the same process.
