    Anyone applying for a driving license in Thailand will soon need to submit a medical certificate in order to prove they do not have any underlying health conditions which may impair their ability to drive.

     

    The requirement applies to all procedures related to driving licenses, including new applications and renewals. 

     

    It also applies to all forms of land transport and medical certificate is even required to be shown when purchasing a new vehicle.

     

    The Department of Land Transport (DLT) made the announcement on its Facebook page, stating that the requirement  will come into effect on Friday, February 19.

     

    The department said the move was to help reduce road accidents in the country, which is notorious for its dangerous roads which claim more than 20,000 deaths annually.

     

    The news comes as a number of  DLT services, including booking an appointment for driving tests, had been moved online due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Nothing new. They have always asked for this.
