Hi I have a 2 years driving license in Thai.

May I know what do I need to upgrade to 5 years license and then, to 1 year IDP? Also, can you please advise how long it will take for each process? Thank you.

I all, probably more a « everything else »

So in a few months I plan on moving to Hua Hin

I’ll probably need to buy car and I’m completely lost with all info I find online, so simple question :

Is it easier to convert my Driver licence to a Thai one in Hua Hin or in BKK (or other city?)

Do I need a residence certificate or is it only for buying the car ? Since I’m about to leave the place I rent I don’t know if it’s worth it to ask now.

No agent for sketchy scheme I play by the rules

Just wanted to report that I managed to extend a 2 year temporary Thai driving license into a regular 5 year Thai driving license based on holding a DTV visa today in Chiang Mai. Wasn‘t sure they would let me. Happy they did - as I was growing tired of getting a new license every 2 years.

Not sure if this question is allowed here ?

I want to travel to Laos with my car

I need passport for car

Insurance for car

Can I use my Thai licence or need IDP ?

Thank you

Has anyone managed to get a Thai Driving License or a Pink ID on a DTV ?

Hi. I am in Thailand on my DTV visa. I am getting closer to the time of my 90-day reporting. Furthermore, I have international driving license, but it is valid only for 3 months in Thailand after crossing the border. I was planning do the reporting and converting my license to Thai one and do 90 days, but there came an opportunity for a border bounce.

Here is my question: I will be in Chiang Rai soon. Is it a good option to do a border bounce to “reset” 90-days and driving license? If so: do I just need to exit Thailand and do I have to come into Laos? If so, for how long do I need to enter Laos?

1h drive sounds tempting in comparison to 3 days spent in Thai immigration and other offices ;-)

Hi all, just a heads up for people who may have been thinking like me. Ive just been to immigration to get a certificate of residence so I can buy a car or motorbike and get a thai driving licence, they told me you cannot obtain one on a dtv visa only a non-immigrant visa.

Seems a bit bizarre to me as the dtv virtually allows a stay of 5 years(just leaving the country annually ).

Changed my address on my driving licence

Do I need to change address or renew my international driving permit

Can I apply for a thai driving licence on a DTV? I have an IDP but I gather that I can only use that for 90 days at a time and I plan to be here longer than that. I see one of the requirements for the driving licence is a residency cert, I only have a tm30. Is that acceptable? TIA

Hello all, can you please recommend an agency in Bangkok who can get me my TM30, certificate of residence and Thai driving licence please, many thanks, kind regards, Kay x. Have DTV VISA
