bbi1 2197 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Apparently I need to get a Medical Certificate to apply for a 2 year initial Motorbike Licence. Anyone here have any recommended cheap places around Buakhao area where to get one? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
biervoormij 516 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I used a place called Buakhouw Clinic 312/81 Soi Buakhao a few months ago. It is across the street from LK metro. Sorry don't recall the price but I thought it was a good price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lucky Bones 2884 Posted January 10 Popular Post Share Posted January 10 Go for a walk down 3rd road & check out clinics. Avoid Buakhao area, likely falang pay more....supply & demand stuff. Nurse/receptionist will check blood pressure, temp, & weight. Most docs will look at you, sign the paperwork and send you on your way without uttering a word. My doc said "you look fit". Dress neatly & pay maximum of 200 baht. Someone else may know an exact place?🙃🙃 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post scubascuba3 26856 Posted January 10 Popular Post Share Posted January 10 Any clinic on Buakhao will charge about 150 baht, it's not a real health check so won't be expensive, good money for nothing 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you mean, the piece of paper he needs to request is the Bai Lap Long Pear (Pae) - not so much a certificate of spice. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muhendis 3090 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 20 minutes ago, IvorBiggun2 said: Any government hospital. Yes any government hospital will know what is required for about 100 Bhat. As has been mentioned, it's just a few basic pulse, BP and eyesight tests. I was also given a colour blindness test which involved looking at a few cards with coloured spots and identifying the hidden number. You will get a signed, prepared letter which the land department will want. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned bring Passport I believe it was only 100 baht not expensive. They will give you the required form for your DL. It is quick and convenient. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thingamabob 5717 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Outside most licensing offices there will be guys touting medical certificates for 50-100 baht. This has always worked for me, with no questions asked. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dress code is irrelevant. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wife and myself went to clinic. I pulled up a chair, she went to the desk, "need med cert". We left 5 min. later, and doc didn't look at me. As stated, 100 baht. Same as last time I got one, no wife, and ... "I need"... "how you feel" ... "fine" ... "thank you, bye", smaller clinic & 30 baht. Bit of a joke actually. At DLT, impressed, as 3 eye test (color, depth, peripheral), along w/ 1 reflex test, something not even done in USA (PA / TN), as just remember the color blind w/number for 1st license. All renews done online at home states. Dress code at DLT; No short, tees, sandals/flip flops. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ54 1597 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 It’s been 6 year ish now but as I recall it was fairly complex… cost 100-200 baht tops. Test consists of observation if you can successfully hand over your passport and get money out of your wallet without dropping it…. seriously it does have an expiry so make sure not to wait too long or you’ll have to get another.. I know I had to get second one… Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most dont even examine you, just ask a couple of questions. Dress code is irrelevant. As long as you are clean and dont smell if BO, it doesnt matter what you wear.
