MisterMan Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 (edited) I live in Phuket but am taking a trip to Trang. I have been told that in Phang Nga it is quicker then in Phuket.. less people etc.. I already have a expired international license. My other half was worried that Phang Nga or Trang Dept of Transportation mighrt not know how to deal with farang paperwork required for the license. Any experience? Success stories? Will I get banned for life if I also post this in the phuket forum too? Edited February 5, 2009 by MisterMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know how bothered they will be by the IDL being out of date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMan Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 Is it an all day affair in Krabi too? This might be an option as it is on the way too. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Had a Bangkok licence and moved to Phangnga. When the BKK licence expired took nearly a month for all the paperwork to be transferred and a new licence issued. When I had to renew it in Phangnga quick and easy. Having said that this was about 7 or 8 years ago so things might have changed. They might give you a licence on the strength of your expired IDP but the chances are that you will have to do the tests. There is a handful of farangs using the Amhur Muang office so although not as busy as Phuket, they will know what to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
