Embassy certificate of residence can be used to get Thai driving license ?

As BKK immigration does not make Certificate of residence when you stay here on a tourist visa.

Hi,

Do you know if the certificate of residence provided by embassy can be used to get a Thai driving license in Bangkok?

Everything seems acceptable in Pattaya but not in Bangkok, so if you know a driving license place that accepted to give you a driving license with a certificate of residence provided by embassy please tell me where.

If I need to try do you think that chances are better at Jatujak or Sukhumvit office ? Or maybe I will go to Pattaya as immigration there can give you a certificate of residence even when you stay on a tourist visa...

Thanks a lot.

Moved to Thailand motor forum. You will get your answer here. Have a look a the pinned topic at the top of the page.

Obtained 2 yesterday from Kap Cheong for friend who is opening a Bank account and obtaining a DL. He has 1 yr 'O' visa from Hull,UK

Embassy letters are acceptable by all licence offices, although our local one (Pathum Thani) prefers a work permit for some reason.

You will likely still have a problem getting the licence as a non-immigrant visa is required (some offices seem to issue on tourist visas though).
