I renewed online a few years ago, before expiry got C1 entitlement no extra documents required then but maybe things have changed ?
Also they added motorcycle entitlement that had been omitted from my previous photo licence which had in turn caused me to have to do the complete Thai motorcycle test

So can anyone confirm that after re-applying for a licence after so many years, did you keep your entitlement to drive 7.5T vehicles (Category C1)?
I'm pretty sure the licence will include all your entitlements...as the licence it's self does not expire as such just that they made a new "money making scheme"
of having to update the photo every 10 years.
Also be aware that using an "expired" photo licence can result in a 1000 pound fine !!!! see money making scheme !
You can renew online and have them use your latest passport photo which they find themself
the "government portal" web site to do this is a bit of a kerfuffle to set up as they want to send authorisation codes to a UK mobile phone number obviously the licence will be sent to a UK address too.

As long as she keeps a copy of the green book under the seat and pays the yearly tax and insurance
there should be no problems at checkpoints (having a driving licence also helps)

I just read this
https://thethaiger.com/news/bangkok/200-teams-go-door-to-door-to-find-covid-19-around-bangkok
" Should anyone develop strong symptoms, the task force teams will provide fever-reducing medication and traditional Thai herbal medicines made from green chiretta that is thought to fight Covid-19 symptoms."
Isn't this "green chiretta" some sort of herbal remedy ?

Which immigration office will you be using ? they all have their own small interpretations as to what is required.
from my notes
Jomtien March 2021
2 x copies of
1. TM7 application form signed both sides.
2. passport face page
3. visa page
4. previous visa extension page/s
5. TM6
6. Marriage Kor Ror 3 both sides on one page
7. !!! new for 2021 must go to the Amphur office and get updated Kor Ror 2 must do this every year from now on !!!
8. ID Wife ( front back same page)
9. House book ( showing current address)
10.Bank statement confirming 400,000 + in Thai bank for at least 2 month's (60 days) + a transaction on that day
and if the book isn't updated for a while during the last 3 months and book doesn't show when top up occurred then also need a statement showing the last 3 months
Bank statement must be from that day
11. photos 4 different on 2 A4 pages you and wife at home, 1 must clearly show you including the home/house/condo number.
( this year did 4 photos on one page no raised eyebrows)
12. Map to house
2 sets of everything sign every page ( blue ink best) except your wife's and witness ID/house book which they must sign.
They will come to interview at home,and want to interview a "witness" who must be Thai but not a close relative 2 copies of their ID and house book..(no need to take witness to immigration office)-

But what if you do believe it and share it and then "someone" decides it is fake news ( who gets to decide what is fake and what is not ? )
and then end up in "big trouble"
For instance some people believe the earth is flat and others that it was created in 7 days,some believe that mankind has not set foot on the moon.
Galileo believed the earth rotated around the sun (not the other way round)
and that belief was deemed "dangerous" at the time
whereas now it is proved to be scientific fact.
"Alternative" views should not be stifled with threats of prosecution and criminal proceedings but countered with "rational" argument.

thank you, do you know where I can find this on a Thai Gov website? any official docs?
Sorry you won't find the information about your possessions being "held to ransom" at any government website...but if you google this subject of the Thai customs department and/or importing a vehicle to Thailand there are many accounts of how things go.
-
There is a report of success here.
I remember reading and commenting about someone else saying they imported a car but there where specific special circumstances something like US military vehicle of maybe diplomatic..can't find the post now.
(not for lack of searching)

"A whole family planning on changing residence and moving to Thailand permanently will be given the privilege of bringing into the country two units of each item. Any unit in excess of this two-piece limit is already taxable. During an excess, Custom officials may levy a lower rate since the importer is a whole family." Privilege !!!!
Sell,donate to charity.friends and family or throw away as much as possible...
before dealing with Thai customs.
Most everything you could want is available to buy in Thailand...
do not whatever you do try to ship any sort of motor vehicle.
