What is the cost of obtaining a driver's license in Thailand after preparing necessary documents?
How much should it cost to get a drivers license from the government office? After having gotten the medical certificate and immigration TM30, passport, etc for them. I have both a US (Oregon) Drivers License and an IDP. For both car and motorcycle.
Answer summary
The cost to obtain a driver's license in Thailand varies based on location and type of license. Typically, the fees range from around 205 to 760 baht, depending on whether you are applying for a car or motorcycle license. Additional requirements include a residence certificate, passport copies, and certain medical documents. It is important to note that processes can differ by region and that there may be delays in scheduling tests, particularly in tourist hotspots like Phuket.
