Can I walk in and obtain a Thai driver's license the same day if I have an International Driving Permit, and do I need to take the training video?

Pete *******

1) You go to the DLT office with your paperwork and they check it, then they give you an appointment sometime in the next few weeks. You will not get a same day appointment.

2) Yes you get put in a room where the 1hr video plays on repeat loop. Having an IDP is irrelevant.
