Kajetan Michalewicz no idea but they asked for it after everything else was done then I thought the visa would come the next day but it took another week later after that

@Charles *********
it started quick with responses after 48 hours then I had to wait 1 week for a letter from my accountant. Then after all the boxes were ticked I finally got a request for my flight ticket which I sent them then the visa got emailed to me a week after that, no idea why it was stuck at processing for the last week, so at I’d say around 8-9 days of the 3 weeks was waiting on me to get them things if this helps

I did mine earlier this year.

Download the DLT app on your phone and book a test, Thais need to wait weeks or months but they have slots for farangs normally next day if you use the app, you will need to sit for a whole day in a test centre, 4-6 hours watching a video then some studying then the test, the test is actually a bit hard due to the bad translations and crazy thai questions such as monks don’t need to wear helmets and tanks can drive on roads, spend the 4 hours of watching video to study here

The practical part is easy and takes 5 minutes, you will pay 50-100 baht to hire the test bike, drive about a small course, even if you hit every cone and crash every kerb you will still pass. Then you pay the desk 100 baht and you got your license. If you fail the written test u can come back the next day and do it, I seen quite a lot of people fail actually the questions are impossible if you don’t study for hours.
