LivinLOS Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 I was recently told thats there is or soon will be, a new Thai driving license with the license details in English (handy for travel).. Is that fact ?? Anyone know any more about it ?? Will you need to pay again ?? Can I go and get it issued just because I want one ?? Or whats the case about new licenses when you move address ?? I have never bothered to adjust mine and lived in 3 houses in the last year, do you have to pay each time you move or is that only the first time (3 addresses, times 2 licenses, times me and the GF, all adds up).

Cuban Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 >Will you need to pay again ?? Just get the new format card when you next renew, if you are at the begining of an old format 5 year licence - you could 'loose' it - I assume there would be a replacement fee, probably not more than the 500 (+?) Baht fee for a new 5 yr card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigtail Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 (edited) Surrender the present driving license plus 100 bahts fee being cost of the new credit card type card. Took me 15 minutes to get a replacement. Supposedly good for driving within ASEAN countries without getting an international one.

pigtail Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 I was informed, as a Thai citizen however, by the issuing office but hopefully it will cover yours too. I would check whether using Thai driving license with other passport is acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
