IF you get fined. i didnt

you are still in time if you do it next week… and even if you go way too late then it is up to the officer / office. i didnt got fined for 6 weeks too late 🙈

Yes you can get the driving licenses. Do you have an IDP and the license in your home country? if yes then you only need a certificate of residence (immigration), a medical certificate (any local doctor for 100 baht), passport, licenses. everything in copy 2 times. make an appointment at the local DLT (some dont need). depending on the province you will do some tests (reaction, etc. // easy) at the DLT. depending on the office you will hold your new license in your hand within an hour. i paid about 350 baht for 2 licenses at the DLT. plus 100 for the doc.

if you dont have a license yet then you will need to do some tests. can do that at the dlt + online theory test. i would probably choose a driving school that has some english speaking staff to make it an easy process.

@Paul ******

its not beeing done here. fact… 🤣 they probably consider the reaction test that includes seeing the traffic lights as such test ;) i have a red-green weakness and cannot even pass this test where you have to see the number with all the colored dots ;)

@Paul ******

like i said from my pracical experience: there isnt in Krabi ;) i got my licenses there and so did many friends. :) it takes less than an hour from the parking lot to holding your driving license in your hand :)

@Paul ******

not in Krabi. they have a test on the corridor 🤣 just a reaction test where you see a traffic light and have to break. super easy and takes 20 seconds. while everyone on the corridor is watching 😅 nothing else is tested and its a very quick process. depends on the DLT i guess ;)

but i was mainly refering to the online test some people say „you need“…

since its very easy, fast and cheap to get a thai license i would do it. depending on the dlt/province its a matter of 1 hour to hold your driving licenses in your hand and no tests needed besides the reaction test which is laughably easy 🤣

@Ross ********

no lol… you will need all documents again but with a new date. fresh financial proof, fresh work / soft power proof. you will also need some residency proof which may vary from office to office. btw money has to be in the bank for 30+ days and you need the bank statements

probably homeoffice… i would not be surprised if the employees have a quota to fullfill no matter what day they do it. or there is an emergency service on the weekends that also does visa stuff when there is nothing else to do 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
