Do I need a new health and residency certificate for my driver's license appointment in Phuket?

Nick *******

I live in Phuket. This was the same when I applied for my first licence. I submitted the paperwork and then told to go back 2 months later for the test, payment and licence

So if you have submitted all your documents on the first visit, there is no need to re-submit.

Thanks for that.

Can I ask just as a matter of curiosity, about your answer to point 1.

How do you apply for the extension before the Non-O?

Isn’t the extension, an extension of the Non-O? So doesn’t the Non-O have to come first?

EXACTLY! So many recommend a company just because it was all roses when they signed up with them. You can only know if you are with a good insurer when it comes to making a claim. I never take recommendations from anyone who’s never had to claim with said company.
