Documents Needed When Riding A Motorbike?

[Banyan]

Do I need a Thai licence to drive a motorbike during my next vacation in Thailand or do I have to bring along an International Driving Licence?

Motorbikes obviously can be rented at any street corner but what about the papers?

Thanks!

you need to have international driving licence to drive legally.Otherwise you can be fined but usually no more than 100/200 Baht

or 500 in bangkok Though unlike other countries yer licence is no good in your desk draw @ home, you need to have it in yer possesion whilst driving or they will fine u regardless
