then it’s a relatively simple process.

How old is the residence certificate? As much be no more than 30 days when applying for license.

Driving licence copy of both sides, BUT on side side of paper when printed. Same for IDP.

ALL pages of passport used.

I also took contract of rent for address confirmation.

And medical which you can get same day but is valid 30 days same as RC

My advice is always go 12:30pm they reopen at 1pm and always been in and out within 90 minutes whenever I’ve been with anyone. Including my 79 year old mother who did hers recently.

@Ronnie **********

I’m guessing depending on where you are there are going to be different requirements.

I know a wait list in Phuket just for an appointment in samui it’s walk in at 8am or 1pm

@Ronnie **********

why do you need medical insurance? You just have a medical for 100baht

@Ronnie **********

get the residence certificate straight away, it takes 7 days in samui, unless you pay an agent but free to do yourself.

Once you have that, then it’s an easy process that is medical, print papers and goto DLT

If you DM me I can give you a list of what you need to scan for the license

It may be valid but in Thailand it’s 3months from entry. Then it’s not worth anything.

Get the Thai licence while still able to use the IDP as proof of licence then at least it’s easier to get.

Did you have the soft power option booked with proof? And how long was the booking for?

@Andi **********

I’ve yet to find an agent in Samui that can do it. 6-8 weeks ago it was no problem, now impossible.

@Andi **********

the rules changed again recently, I’ve yet to see an agent opened account without LTV in the last month or so.

I opened on a normal tourist exemption

@Lee-Ann ******

yes, been using it for a year with no issues
