Soutpeel Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I have an Intenatioal driving licencs from the UK I've heard I can I get aThai licence with that.any one know how please Yes you can...go into your nearest traffic department with your UK license + IDP + proof of residence (Thailand) pay your money do a colour vision test, reaction test and a parellex test and walk out a few hours later with a 1 year Thai DL, think these days you also have to watch a video as well... You dont even need photos these days.. Take someone with you who can read Thai, as the form that needs to be filled in is in Thai (or it was when I did mine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick question to add if I may, a couple years ago I lost my native licence (which has since expired anyway) and now would like to get a Thai licence. Any idea of what is required because of this?

Thanks in advance. If you dont have a DL from another country, you are going have to do the "full" Thai driving test to get a Thai DL same as a Thai national Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
