2 shots. "You need to submit both the certificates of your 1st (1/2) and 2nd (2/2) doses of vaccination. However, you can use your 2/2 EU Digital COVID Certificate (DCC) as reference of both your 1st and 2nd doses of vaccination." https://consular.mfa.go.th/th/content/thailand-pass-faqs-2 (EDIT: no less than 14 days before travelling, https://tp.consular.go.th/en/plan)

I am renewing 2 years -> 5 years I had to have it at least. I don´t know otherwise but according to this link https://www.dlt.go.th/en/two-year-license/ you need medical for both 2 -> 5 and 5 -> 5.

https://thainews.prd.go.th/en/news/detail/TCATG210823111012029 : ".. extend the expiry date of driving licenses and personal vehicle licenses and allow them to be used when necessary to present to the authorities, until September 30, 2021. As the COVID-19 situation has escalated, the DLT is coordinating with the RTP to ease the enforcement of the law. The RTP is extending the period of leniency in enforcing any rules, regulations, ordinances and orders affecting holders of expired driving licenses under the law on cars and holders of expired personal driving licenses, allowing them to be used until December 31, 2021."

Okey, I have just read before what has been said online about it but maybe it has been changed since then. I was stopped in May (Lop Buri) and in September (Phuket) with my license that expired in April, no mention about it. https://www.pattayamail.com/thailandnews/thailand-expired-drivers-license-valid-until-december-31-368831 https://thainews.prd.go.th/en/news/detail/TCATG210823111012029

What do you mean with this? The immigration officer told me to pay 300 (I had the money in my pocket until they asked for it). I know I can argue with them and tell them it's free but I am fairly new here and just wanted to be over with it. But up to you, I am not going to argue here either about this, just wanted you to know it was the officer that asked for it.

Yes, they looked thru all the papers and stapled it together with a post-it on top with appointment time to return. (Copy from my other post) To DLT I brought this to book: - Thai driving license - Passport + Copies of passport (first page + extension) - Certificate of Residence + copy - Medical certificate - Proof that successfully completed the online video (dlt-elearning.com) For Certificate of Residence at Phuket Immigration: - Application Form for Residence Certificate in Thailand - แบบขอหนังสือรับรองถิ่นที่พักอาศัยในประเทศ (can download from Phuket Immigration website) - Copies from following passport pages: Detail page Current visa/extension Last entry stamp TM6 departure card - 1 x Passport size picture - Copy of the address notification receipt - 300 THB (I was told by the Volunteer, who checked the paperwork, that they will ask for 300 THB If I want it same day otherwise I have to come pick it up other day. So I paid when asked to pay and got the certificate after 5 min wait.)

I read somewhere it’s ok with expired license until end of the year, but who knows. I went to DLT to renew in October but didn’t get appointment until 22 December, so at least it was around 10 week waiting time then, probably same now. I would recommend that you go book an appointment soon.

Update (if anyone else is going to renew license at DLT Phuket soon and want to know): I was at the DLT today (when they opened) and got an appointment 22 december, so right now its around 10+ weeks that you'll have to wait until you can renew your license. Just prepare all the papers (+ the e-learning) and go there and they will check your paperwork, staple it together and give you a date and time when you can come back.

I went there yesterday, everything was fast and easy. What I needed for the Residence Certificate (if someone else is wondering): - Application Form for Residence Certificate in Thailand - แบบขอหนังสือรับรองถิ่นที่พักอาศัยในประเทศ (can download from Phuket Immigration website) - Copies from following passport pages: Detail page Current visa/extension Last entry stamp TM6 departure card - 1 x Passport size picture - Copy of the address notification receipt - 300 THB (I was told by the Volunteer, who checked the paperwork, that they will ask for 300 THB If I want it same day otherwise I have to come pick it up other day. So I paid when asked to pay and got the certificate after 5 min wait. It doesn´t really bother me and I didn´t feel like arguing over 300 baht but it's up to you I guess).

Thank you for the information Mark! Did you have the "Filled in TM30 form. (House owner section can be left blank)" as per the information from Piv-Phukets website and just add the copy of your receipt of address notification? Thanks again

Thanks for the reply. I am already registered at Phuket Immigration and do my 90 days there every time also. I am just reading the information that Piv-Phuket gives at https://piv-phuket.com/others/residence-certificate/ , and it seems that even though you have a "Up to date address registration" they say "Filled in TM30 form." is a required paper, but maybe I am reading it wrong. So I only need the following papers if I understand you correctly? Thanks for the help. Copies from following passport pages: Detail page Current visa/extension Last entry stamp TM6 departure card Passport size picture.

Okay thank you. I could not use the DLT Smart Queue with passport, so you mean I have to go there first in person to make appointment and return at a later date with the documents and make the tests?

Hello. Has anyone got a "residence certificate" at Phuket Immigration recently for the purpose of renewing driving license or other purpose? I read on Piv-Phuket.com that you need "Filled in TM30 form. (House owner section can be left blank) Copies from following passport pages: Detail page Current visa/extension Last entry stamp TM6 departure card Passport size picture." But at the Phuket Immigration website they have a form called "Application Form for Residence Certificate in Thailand - แบบขอหนังสือรับรองถิ่นที่พักอาศัยในประเทศ". I guess Piv have not updated their website and that you should use this form instead of TM30, or somebody know which papers are required? I will prepare them all, no problem, just want to know so it will go as fast and smooth as possible at the immigration ???? Thank you.

Has anyone renewed the license lately? Is it open again? I read that you have to do training first at www.dlt-elearning.com. Do you do the training, then bring the documents and go to the dlt office for the reaction tests etc? I have a 2 year license that expired in February, and have not been able to renew it yet. Will renew for five year both car and motorbike. Anyone knows? Thanks!
