Hi all

my 5 year car license expires in april...here s the rub..i divorced my thai wife of 14 years..now i am with a new lady but am not married. ..So no o visa..just bought a new car...so is my only option to get married again...or will they renew the 5 year license on a tourist visa(sorry if this. Has been done before)......cheers. ..John....

I cannot be too sure on this but fairly positive that you do not need a visa to renew your car licence.

You will require proof of address so if you are not living in the same house as previously will need to sort that out and get a letter from immigration.

A medical certificate will again be a requirement.

Then a copy of your passport.

When I applied and got my first licence I was only here as a tourist on a 3 month visa and had no problem.

Hope someone can clarify or correct what I have posted.

For 5 years renewal you officially need a non-immigrant visa.

What will happen when you're at the desk of the DLT nobody knows though, but chances are high you'll get 1 year in stead of 5.

thanks guys, kind of what i expected,think its all a bit hit and miss unless i get married again...

Hi

I make my renewal 2 years ago, and I deed it the Non Immigrant visa class *O*

I don´t know if there is another way.

Cum on man, those dishes are piling up in the sink......you need a wife ASAP!

make you right bsj looks like its the only way

Just doing mine, need the letter from immigration confirming your address, you can do it on a tourist visa as far as I know, but that's a different case to me, I have a yellow book and B visa, you also have 1 year after it expires to renew it, but that doesn't mean you can drive with it expired.

It's a simple process if you get there early enough in the morning, like 8am before they get busy.
