Lost Thai driving licence in Phuket


Recommended Posts

Posted

I've read several posts but none within the past few years on this subject. Does anyone know the exact paperwork needed at the land office in Phuket to replace a lost licence. I have a police report, but do i need another COR?

You can use the DLT QR license app, just as good as the hard copy. If you don’t have the app already but have a photo of the back of your license, then you can register on the app. Also I keep screenshots off the app of front and back of both my licenses.

Yes, if you have photos of the back of your license (you need to scan a qr code off the back of your license when registering with the online app).  The app wouldn't care that you lost your license.  You could use the license on the app whenever you previously used your physical driver's license.

Thanks, sadly i don't have a photo of my car license, only my bike license, would that work or is it a different qr code?

You need the QR code that is on the back of each license to register. Yes each license has a different code

Trying to remember.  Seems to me I only had to register one license and then the other appeared automatically.  You could try and see what happens.

So the qr codes for bike and car license are different?. I cant use the qr code from my bike licence to register a car?

To be honest, I don’t remember either. Go ahead and register your bike license and let us know what happens 😊

In theory... since the online license is to be accepted for all purposes the physical license can be used for, the Land Transport Office should accept your showing it on the phone or a copy of the picture on your phone.

Let us know how it goes.

So far i know you have to do the police report in the province where the incident happened.

Therefore he told the Phuket police that he lost his DL in Phuket.
