it doesn’t matter what visa you hold, you automatically become a Thai tax resident by residing 180 days inside Thailand in a calendar year. There is no other qualifying criteria. As a Thai tax resident you are legally obligated to obtain a TIN within 60 days of receiving assessable income.

Passport and TM30, you can get the immigration request form at the enquiry desk.

Anonymous participant 626 true but you stated that the visa you hold is irrelevant to getting a license. In the case of obtaining a 5 year license that is untrue.

Anonymous participant 626 incorrect, the regulations on the DLT website state that you must be in possession of a Non Immigrant Visa in order to apply for a 5 year license. You were lucky that your local office isn’t enforcing national rules.
