Phuket Land Transport Office open to foreigners?

[BMW Overlander]

Few days ago tried to renew my International Driving Permit in Bangkok, was told services are not available to foreigners until further notice.

I am back to Phuket now and want to do the same. Anyone knows what is the status, are the offices open to foreigners here?

 

Thanks in advance.

A friend was told last week 3 July, seems strange to start on a Friday but they may be giving thais a head start if the other date is 1 July. I would be tepmted to give it a week to let the initial rush cool anyway.

Please note that 4 to 7 July are public holidays in Thailand.

Please note that 3 Jul is a Friday- what's your point?

You suggested "I would be tepmted to give it a week to let the initial rush cool anyway."

I just want to highlight the public holidays in the following week after 3 July.  Is that so hard to comprehend?
