Obtaining Thai Licence, Expired Licence From USA

Recommended Posts

Hello

 

If I understand correctly, it is easier to obtain a Thai licence if you present a licence form ones home country, or an international license (that was at least the case for me many years ago with my moto licence).

 

I now need a vehicle license, and have one from my home country, but it it unfortunately expired. Does anyone have any experience with this? Is there anyway I can obtain a Thai licence in a simpler fashion using my expired licence from the US? Or, will I have to obtain it as if I am a first time driver?  If anyone has any experience with this and can offer any advice, it would be appreciated. I am in Bangkok and in a huge rush (my own fault) as I waited too long to move forward with this. Thanks again.

You don't have a valid license, so officially will have to do all tests including practical. Now you may be lucky and that could be waivered, but without IDP and with expired license I have little hope for you.

That is what I figured. Thanks for the info. 

 

By the way, I cannot seem to find the proper information for the actual testing. I have seen some say it is a one hour video, and others say five hours. What in the world would a five hour video contain?
