Becker Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Can I get this at the "Transport Office" where I get my Thai DL by the Regents International School? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anythingleft? Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 If you are not Thai then I believe you get it from your original country where your license was issued....Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 (edited) Yes you can but I believe only if you have a five years Thai license. Not for a 1 year one. Oh and it is a permit not a license and cannot be used alone, technically. Edited June 27, 2018 by VocalNeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get one issued in Thailand based on your 5 year Thai DL. https://www.dlt.go.th/en/international-driving-licence/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it to use your Thai license outside of Thailand instead of your home country license?Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk I see 2 main reasons why to ask for one: You not have an license , and have only made driver license in Thailand. To ask for a International Driver License from your Home country is complicated or even impossible as you not register there anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becker Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 It's all very simple. I live in Thailand and have a Thai DL. I will soon go to another Asian country on holiday where I will rent a car. According to what I've found on the net an International DL is required. There, mystery solved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
