What is the process for converting a German driver's license to a Thai one, and does the German embassy play a role in this?

Michael ********

I took my German international and my normal license to the DLT done a little test and got it changed no problem, you have to download a app on your phone watch a video answer 3 questions and then you get a screenshot to show them. Es ist nicht schwer, viel Erfolg.

My Sim was registered with my Thai pink ID card, didn't match with my passport number at the bank, I went to the AIS topped up 50 Baht then went to the bank, all sorted in a hour. Kasikorn Bank.

some banks do and some don't so you have to travel round looking for a one that deos, which wasn't the case before, if you had the right paperwork you could open a account at any bank.

I have never claimed that you can not open a account, myself and other members have claimed that it very difficult to open one on the first 90 day O visa.
