2025 - which political story are you not looking forward to?
Plus get real about trumps lack of attention to the virus / his claims that it wasn't real plus his insulting remarks to Dr. Fauci and the very senior female doctor, plus lack of provision of critical medical equipment ; there's a big factor in why close to a million Americans died. Strange and illogical why so many MAGA supporters ignore all these points. -

How to do the online training and renew your driver’s licence in Thailand
If you’re living in Thailand, renewing your driver’s licence might feel like a bit of a mystery. In the past, it often required a trip to the Department of Land Transport (DLT) and involved long waits. Luckily, Thailand now offers an online option that lets you complete the required training and, in many cases, even renew your licence without leaving home. Here’s everything you need to know, from basic requirements to the steps you’ll follow to get your licence renewed smoothly. First, make sure you already have a Thai driver’s licence To qualify for the online renewal, you must already have a Thai driver’s licence. If you don’t yet have a licence, you’ll need to complete an in-person application and testing process at the DLT. But if you’re renewing an existing Thai licence, whether it’s a one-year or five-year licence, you’re eligible for the online training and renewal option. Before you begin, ensure you have the following: A valid Thai driver’s licence: You must already possess a driver’s licence to renew it. Identification documents: Typically, this includes your passport and a copy of your visa. Health verification: A medical certificate from a Thai clinic is often required. Access to the internet: You’ll need a device to complete the online training and renewal process. How the online training works In Thailand, online training, called อบรมใบขับขี่ออนไลน์ (, is required to renew your driver’s licence. This training course ensures all drivers stay up-to-date on current traffic laws, safety practices, and responsible driving habits. Types of licences and training duration: If you’re renewing a motorcycle licence, you’ll need to complete a 1-hour training course. For a car driver’s licence, the course is usually 2 hours. Completing this training course is mandatory before you can proceed with the renewal application. Step 1: Completing the online training The DLT e-learning platform is where you’ll start. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to complete the training: 1. Go to the DLT E-Learning website Open your browser and visit www.dlt-elearning.com. This is the official platform for the training. Make sure you’re on the right website, as unofficial sites might not be accepted by the DLT Step 2. Register with your personal details You’ll be asked to enter details such as your ID number or passport number. Double-check everything before submitting, as incorrect information could lead to issues later.

Choose 1-hour for motorcycle licence renewal and 2-hour for car licence renewal. These are video-based courses, so ensure you have a reliable internet connection. Step 4: Watch the course videos and complete quizzes Watch each video carefully. The course consists of several segments, each lasting about 15 minutes. Focus on completing it without distractions, as leaving the page may require you to restart. The system tracks your progress, so you can’t skip through the material. There are short quizzes to complete after each video module, which test your understanding of road safety, Thai traffic laws, and other essential topics. Step 5: Save your results Save your results: Once you pass, download or take a screenshot of your digital confirmation, which includes a QR code. **Please turn on the English subtitles** Renewing your driver’s licence online With your training certificate ready, you can proceed with the renewal process. While some aspects still require a physical visit to the DLT office in certain provinces, the renewal process has largely moved online, making things simpler for expats. 1. Download the DLT Smart Queue app Start by downloading the DLT Smart Queue app, available on iOS and Android. This app is essential, as it allows you to book appointments or, in some cases, submit your renewal application online. 2. Choose the renewal service and check requirements Once logged in, select the driver’s licence renewal service. Some provinces require an in-person visit, so check your local DLT office’s requirements. If you live in Bangkok or larger cities, the entire process might be available online. 3. Prepare and upload the required documents You’ll need digital copies of: Your Thai ID card or passport (for foreign residents) Your completed training certificate from the DLT e-learning platform Your existing Thai driver’s licence Make sure these documents are clear and legible before uploading them to the app. 4. Submit your application and pay the fee After uploading, you’ll be prompted to pay the renewal fee. The fee may vary depending on your licence type, so double-check before confirming. Payment can often be done directly through the app or the DLT website, simplifying the process. 5. Confirmation and receiving your renewed license After completing the payment and submitting your application, you’ll receive a confirmation notification. Depending on your location, you may either collect your new licence at the DLT office or, in some cases, receive it by mail. For a detailed step-by-step online driving licence application, check out our guide on DLT QR LICENSE app guide. Things expats might not know about the renewal process 1. Language options in the training course While the DLT platform primarily uses Thai, some sections have English subtitles or voiceovers. However, it’s helpful to have basic Thai reading skills or a friend to assist if needed. 2. Using the app without a Thai ID number Expats with a work permit or residency can still register on the DLT Smart Queue app using their passport number, making it accessible even if you’re not a Thai citizen. 3. Renewing after license expiration If your license has already expired, you’ll still be able to renew, but extra penalties may apply. The DLT allows a grace period, but renewal fees increase the longer it’s been expired, so it’s best not to wait too long. 4. Medical certificate requirements for some expats In some provinces, foreign residents may need to submit a basic health or medical certificate, especially if renewing after a significant gap. It’s wise to check with your local DLT branch to confirm if this applies to you. A few extra tips for a smooth renewal experience Plan ahead: Start the online training and renewal process well before your license expires. A few weeks in advance is ideal to allow time for any unexpected issues. Stay updated with DLT announcements: Thailand’s license renewal requirements occasionally change. Follow the DLT’s official website or Facebook page for updates, especially if you live in a smaller province where procedures might vary. Double-check your address for delivery: If your renewed license will be mailed to you, make sure the DLT has your correct address to avoid any delays or misplaced mail. The DLT’s shift to online services is a huge benefit, especially for expats who may have difficulty navigating local offices due to language barriers or limited information about Thai licensing procedures. With the online training and renewal options, you can complete most steps from the comfort of your home, minimising wait times and cutting down on paperwork. FAQs about Thai driving licence What documents do I need to apply for a Thai driver’s license? To apply for a Thai driver’s license, you typically need your passport, a valid visa, a medical certificate, proof of residence (like a TM30 form), and two passport-sized photos. If you already have a license, bring that as well. Can I renew my Thai driver’s license online? While you cannot complete the entire renewal process online, you can partially complete it by taking the required e-learning course on traffic laws and safety. Afterward, you must visit a Department of Land Transport (DLT) office to finalise the renewal. How long is a Thai driver’s license valid? A Thai driver’s license is usually valid for either two or five years, depending on your residency status and whether you are applying for an initial or renewal license. What is the process to convert an international driver’s license to a Thai license? To convert an international driving permit (IDP) to a Thai license, you need to present your IDP along with your passport, visa, medical certificate, and photos at the DLT office. You may also need to take a written test and practical driving exam. Do I need to take a driving test to renew my license? If your license has expired for more than one year, you will need to retake both the written theory test and the practical driving test. For renewals within one year of expiration, only basic vision tests are typically required.- 1

Tax on sale if condo & deductions
There are 3-4 taxes when you sell a condo, and they are subject to individual circumstances. One of the taxes is on profit, but varies over time, if you live in the property, other income etc. One thing to keep in mind is taxes are calculated on what the land office says a property is worth, not what you say its worth. https://samui-island-realty.com/thailand-property-taxes-fees/ -
