Can you apply for a motorbike license in Thailand on a 60-day visa extension?

If you want a hassle free approach then use an agent. Doesn’t matter if you are on exempt or a visa as they just sort everything and beat all the queues etc

What happens if I leave Thailand without cancelling my extension of stay?

Jim ********

You need to let immigration know. If not then you could have difficulty getting future visa’s or extensions. I don’t know anyone that has had issues but I do know someone who didn’t cancel their visa and has had zero issues since but apparently it can cause issues 🤷‍♂️
