As for renewing driving licenses, you get 2year with DTV not 5year, I guess this was expected as its a tourist visa, but I had some hopes because its 5year visa 😝

And for requirements, on DLT website it says certificate of residence but no, you need the same paper from IO that you needed when you got your first license (for motorbike, and car, different papers).

The officer at transportation office said, and wrote on my appointment letter that I need 1 cert and 1 copy of it. A bit confusing since i renew motorbike and car. Car they check both boxes in 1 paper?

I have never renewed a license here before, so of course obvious things for some people, but just FYI for people like me...

You also need to print out the certificate of your 1hour training, showing from phone is not enough.

Hey everyone!

Could someone brief me on the procedure of getting a drivers license in Bangkok? I do have a German and a Chinese one, but would like to do it here from scratch, as mine don’t contain the motorcycle license.

Hi all!

Going for Thai driver's license soon. Got all the documents but was curious about the process on the day of obtaining the license.

I recall seeing a post where someone commented that you could watch a video or do some kind of test (not sure anymore what exactly), to save time on that day.

Did someone recently do this and would like to share more information about this? Sorry, quite vague but cannot recall exactly what it was. :)

Ok, I might regret this, but I'm looking for an AGENT (preferably in Pattaya or Chiang Mai) who can expedite the process of obtaining a LEGIT Thailand drivers license. Feel free to recommend if you've used one; agents can message me directly.
