I wish to renew my 2 year drivers licence to a 5 year. They require a visa more than a tourist visa. I'm from the UK, can someone tell me what is the visa type I require just for this purpose. Can I get it in country, or do I have to apply in London?

Cheers,

My friend has a US driver's license but did not get an International Driving Permit before coming to Thailand. Can they get one here to drive in Thailand? or get a Thai driver's license without having to take the test? (Non-immigrant visa)

So a DTV holder cannot open a bank account. I tried all of them. Can I issue a Thai drivers license?

Anyone successfully received a drivers license in Thailand on a DTV? I drive my gfs car all the time but id feel better about it if I actually had a Thai license.

Thirty years ago I obtained my Thai drivers license. In those days no expiry date. Is it still valid, can I still use it ?

In Bangkok, any advice please. Need a Thailand DL. I have IDP & current DL and retirement visa.

How can i get a Thai drivers license?

I'm looking at buying a motorcycle from a Thai person this week, it would be shipped to my province (Lampang) from Bangkok area. Mutual Thai friend checked it out, all is good with buyer, shipping, bike, etc. but..

How does it work to transfer bike from Thai person shipped to me the foreigner (Retirement visa, Thai DL)? Is it easy once we sign something online, and the bike is already here for me to go into office or is there something else to think about?

Do you need to convert to thai drivers license or IDP eventually if you hold an ASEAN DL.

Any recent success stories with opening a bank account on the DTV?
