Do I need to get multiple copies of the residency certificate for buying a motorbike and obtaining a license in Chiang Mai?

Alan ******

Get three and get a vehicle license too. Easier to do it all together if you have access to a car. It’s nearly identical written test.

Why do some people criticize others for asking repetitive questions in a Thailand expat group?

Alan ******

Every one has entered Thailand at different times (recent/distant) with different experiences, so trying to give advise humbly is okay for me. At least give them directions of where to look is acceptable to me. Lord knows I need it from time to time.

@Kenny *********

I presented years ago and received a short term (maybe 1 year or 2) year DL with simple test. The past year I presented on a one year visa and I was required to take 6 hour video and approximately 50 question test and driver’s course test for MC and one for car. Multiple days of testing.

How can I manage my US passport and driver's license while living permanently in Thailand without a US address?

Alan ******

@Brandon ***********

yes .. just like USA, you can only move in transit for 90 without acquiring and local drivers license (visa indicates date).

IDP is irrelevant in USA. So, just keep a USA address and account and get a Thai drivers license too.
