    I did my license renewal back in July (not in Bangkok).  To get into the appointment system, the people at the DLT told me to use my wife's Thai ID number and then to use my own information when filling out the registration form. Sounds a little dodgy but it worked and I was able to make an appointment. I didn't need to show my wife's ID when I went to the appointment.        You'd just need to find a Thai person whose ID # you could use.

    i will ask, thanks

    You can renew a Thai driving licence now, you just need to make an appointment.  My 5-year licence expired at the end of August, and the earliest appointment I could get at Bang Chak was for Christmas Eve.  I have read that some foreigners who just turned up at Mor Chit could renew theirs without an appointment, but I have no evidence of this myself.

    dlt app dont work for passport, how did you make an appointment ?

    I get that, but during such tough times, wouldn't you want to be with family?  Otherwise, what is the point of family?   

     

    Could it be many of these people are estranged from their family, perhaps by their own fault?

     

    the people going to pattaya are often the children,

    the way pension system works here is that the children sends 3000 baht a month to the parents.

    now that they lost the job due to government shut down,

    they cant send money back and are ashamed of it,

    and dont want to go back for that reason alone,

    and then on top of that they dont want to double down by

    becoming a burden (another non productive mouth to feed)

    while it is a commendable act, it is hardly a long time solution to the plight of those homeless folks, but what do you do when the government is bent on buying submarines by the dozen while neglecting their citizens in need, priority is the name of the game here...

    the shut down is more costly and deprived these very people of their livelihood
