It’s not directly the DTV, but I just want to share my experience.

I got my DTV, it got stamped as usual for six months, as I had already had a thai driving license, I want to renew which you have to do after two years.

After two years, you get normally five years driving license.

So I went to the "Songkhla Provincial Land Transport Office HatYai” to renew.

After checking with a lot of employers they called the immigration where my certificate of residence was from, and they confirmed my Visa is only valid for six months.

So I got only the license for another two years instead of five because nobody knows what’s going on with the DTV 🤣

But one thing I have to say, all people that are very friendly and helpful, not like at the provincial land transport office in PhangNga.

Tomorrow I will go to DLT to renew my driving license to get 5-years license.

As I have a work permit, this should be sufficient for the proof of residence.

They require a copy of the work permit page with address. However, my residence address is not showing on my work permit. I wonder if this will give me any issues tomorrow?

Hello, do you know if you can renew your driving license with a DTV? My 2 years are expiring soon and will need to renew it to be able to drive legally. Thank you for your feedback

Good evening

I need to renew my 2-year driving license. My Embassy doesn't validate addresses unfortunately. I've looked up the requirements to get a certificate of residency in Bangkok:

1. copy of your passport’s photo page

2. copy of your visa (if applicable)

3. copy of your TM6 Departure Card

4. copy of your Receipt of Address Notification

5. copy of your lease/house book with your name and address

6. two passport-size photos

However, I live at my wife's house and I don't have a house book or lease with my name on it. I work, but my work permit also doesn't have my address.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do?

Kind regards

Hello, I went to the department of transportation today in Bangkok to renew my driver's licence. I had my passport with me and tm 30 from imigration. However, I was told to go back to the immigration and get a new form. I also, asked them about how long my new driver's license is gonna be good for since I don't have a visa and I am on covid extension.

They said they don't know how long. My question is which imigration I should go to in Bangkok and is the driver's license gonna be good for 2 or 5 years?

Hi all, I would like to know if one of you guys recently had success in presenting pink ID card and yellow book in place of certificate of residence for driving license renewal at Chatuchak DLT ?
