Can I drive and own a car in Thailand on a retirement visa, and do I need a Thai driving license?
Brian *********
@Michael *******
 you need to carry both the UK license and IDP in Pattaya. I've been stopped numerous times and it's 400b fine if you don't have both.

I'm not saying it's law, just pointing out personal experience.
