Can I use a photocopy of passport to board plane?


Recommended Posts

The official list for foreigners is quite restricted. For example, it specifically mentions Thai DLs. Foreign DLs not accepted, and neither are copies of passports and etc.

As always, this is Thailand and actual experiences are probably all over the place.

Use your 2nd passport as they will check on ID only and not on the visa ...... The EU license might be difficult, as Somchai has never seen anything like that. What definitely works is a Thai driving license, so if you have the latter then Bob is your uncle!

Yeah, my driving licence (EU) and my 2nd passport (not the one i entered Thailand on)

I recently got rejected by air asia on my flight Bkk to Chiaddng mai..

I showed my thai drivers licience ,which has my passport no.etc.

I also showed a photocopy of my passport and visa..

They would not check my in.

I was so utterly disgusted and <deleted> off...i just gave up..

My friend checked  in with his passport..

Disgraceful effort by zombie staff..

Sorry to hear that, it was really harsh... Last month I flew Phuket-BKK-Phuket, both flights with my Thai license no problem, but it was VietJet, not AirAsia... it's crazy that different airlines has different rules.
