Driving License (Bike) without Visa?

Recommended Posts

I got mine last September while on a tourist visa. My only recommendation is to review thoroughly the test questions that are available on YouTube. I cannot imagine anyone passing the test without a review. Poor English translation, and poorly written questions, as well as some funny traffic laws. Really difficult if English is a second language. Most Farangs failed in my class. (most Thais as well)

I failed the "theory" test x2  on one day then had to come back the next day where I scraped past

as you say the questions ( at least in English version)

often make no sense, some of the  "correct" answers are plainly wrong..remember that driving your milatary tank on the public road is fully legal...but having no windscreen is worse than having no headlights..:w00t::stoner:

You will need a medical and TM30

((You will not be able to get a Proof of Residence document from Immigration (you can only get this if you have submitted a 90 day report)).

The above is incorrect, your landlord should have submitted a TM30 report within 24 hours of your arrival.
Why don't you get an International Driving Permit from your own country, word of warning, these are only valid 90 days from arrival in Thailand, although the document states a validity of one year.

Hopefully your home country license is valid mKes it a lot easier. 

In Udon Thani you need your IDP.

 

When I got the temporary was able to go to Kumphawapi which is closer to my home. The 5 year license had to go to Udon Thani.
