@James ********

are you talking about the Erewan shrine in Bangkok by the Grand Hyatt or the larger Erewan with the 3-headed elephant in Samut Phrakan?

If the latter, then I agree.

Search the group and other expat groups. This question is asked about 50 times a week!

They have to be applied for in your home country. Plenty of flaky agencies will get you a fake IDP though.

Don’t know, but the borders are closed! 😉

Look for the Transferwise group on Facebook. Best way ever to transfer from UK to Thai bank.

@Stuart ********

exactly.

Of course not. One of the legal requirements is to be 50 years old or more. Did you think they’d waive the law just for you? 😀😀

@Steve *********

what, in 9 month’s time? 😊

@Toohotma *******

I think they also want a letter from your embassy confirming you are a real person. The UK embassy wanted 2,800 baht or something in 2004 so I just said stick it and use an IDP. I've only ever been stopped twice in that time. The first time I knew the cop and he just smiled and said off you go. The second one was a bit stricter but as soon as I showed him my tax and insurance and my UK licence he was fine and just told me to stay in the inner lane. No tea money, nothing.
