As the other guys above have said, no - it doesn't matter. I looked into this at DLT Bangchak years ago and the staff then said no need to bother, as the key number on your DL is not your PP number but your license number, i.e., the 8 digit number in larger purple shaded font in the second row on your DL.

Makes one wonder WHY they put your PP number and address on it in the first place.

In UK you can get fined up to £1000 for not having the correct address on your D L as it is an accepted means of identification.
