There are 230,000 of them in the RTP that could be out enforcing the laws, but they only want the money from fines. Just like Immigration, they don't want to stand up for foreigners who obey the law regarding visas; they want dodgy foreigners who will pay an agent to get a ' rogue ' visa, for which they get a cut of the fees paid. -

Transport Thailand to Regulate Ride-Hailing Apps Within 90 Days for Fairer Competition
Picture courtesy of Thailandee In a significant shift for ride-hailing services, Thailand’s Department of Land Transport (DLT) is acting swiftly to bring digital platforms like Grab under new regulations. Within the next 90 days, app-based taxi and motorbike operators are to register under a government system, addressing long-standing fairness concerns compared to traditional taxis. This is part of a pathway towards a level playing field, ensuring app-based taxis comply with the standards set forth by the Transport Ministry. DLT Director-General, Jirut Wisanjit, confirmed this development following a draft from the Electronic Transactions Commission. It sets a mandate for all ride-hailing vehicles to legally register and meet DLT service application standards. The Ministry is engaging ride-hailing companies in discussions to align on legal compliance and service enhancement, focusing on creating a fairer market space alongside traditional taxis. Service operators must register vehicles under categories Ror Yor 17 and Ror Yor 18, and drivers are required to secure public driving licences. To facilitate this transition, the DLT is expediting criminal background checks at transport offices, promising a faster licensing timeline. Alongside these procedural updates, the DLT is reviewing commission fees on ride-hailing apps to ensure each stakeholder, including the drivers and passengers, benefits fairly. In anticipation of the new rules, the upcoming “Draft Announcement of the Electronic Transactions Commission on Digital Platform Services: Ride-Sharing Vehicles and Motorbikes” is set to roll out within 90 days. It mandates all ride-shares to register officially, drivers to hold public licences, and platforms to adhere to fare standards. Additionally, platforms will need to establish systems to manage driver misconduct and report essential vehicle and fare data to the DLT. As these changes unfold, the transport sector braces for a more regulated and equitable framework. This initiative marks a crucial juncture in the way digital and traditional taxi services operate side by side in Thailand, amplifying public interest and aligning operational standards across the board.
