tootall Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Can any one direct me to a site or link where I can download a Thai driver's license application? I need to renew my Thai license and want to fill out the form before I get there so I am not trying to fill one out as I wait in line. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beechguy Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 (edited) I never filled one out at the DLT by Mochit BTS in Bangkok, they completed the forms and I just supplied the copies of the documents. Where do you plan on applying? Maybe something useful in here. http://driving-in-thailand.com/category/laws/traffic-laws/ or look in the Motoring Forum under the Pinned Topics.

bocceball1 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Just renewed my Driver License today....Whether your applying for a new one or renewing just make sure you have all your documents in order (proof of residence, Passport and copies of all relevant pages, medical certificate, Drivers license and copy thereof,) As for the "application" all they had me do was print my name, put the date in and sign where indicated. They filled in the rest. Posted the following elsewhere BUT I love the experience....so I will repeat Today I renewed my Driver's License (from 1 yr to 5 yr)...had all my paperwork (copies of passport, medical certif, old license and proof of residence). Got to the DMV at 11am....had to be at least 200 people before me (75 were in the rooms watching a video ....half the others were waiting to be tested, and the other half were waiting to be processed). I was ready to turn around and come back the next day....My wife said "wait, give me 500 baht" ...I smiled knowing what she was about to do ...and told her great idea (she doesn't always like to pay tea money but likes to size the situation up first). So my wife makes her way to the counter through the mass of people waiting and standing around .....and next thing I know my wife waves me up....I write my name, date, and sign the paper given to me....then the women behind the counter comes and takes my hand to lead me to a visual testing area (asks me the what the colors are she points to on a poster) I'm sure I missed some as my vision is somewhat blurry ..but she says ..."you pass...wait here'' ..5 minutes later I'm asked for 505 baht and given a que number for getting your picture taken to get the license..... Now this all took maybe 10 minutes.....for the picture my number was 139 and they were on 81. Another 45 minutes later I was out of there with my 5 yr license ........605 baht Plus 500 tea money....and saved probably 4 hours of BS. GOTTA LOVE THAILAND!!!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also just renewed my license two weeks ago at Mochit and I too never had to fill out any forms, they handed me some forms to sign but filled in most of the other information for me. I arrived early and was in and out of there in about an hour. I was actually quite impressed with how efficient they were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DGIE Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 For me I don't want to give tea money. 500 is much. coffee money? No too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myluckythai Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 (edited) got my license too. no downloads available. just go to hospital for small examination. then to local police station for some license to get a license.... total cost me 300 and a 1000 for the policeofficer's pocket... and to some traffic office. Did no test, they filled out all the forms I gave no proof of residense. only a 3 month visa!? don't know what my wife stated there, showed my license of my homecountry at the police station and yes a copy of my passport . maybe being legally married was an aspect i oversee. no idea what my wife all talked about when there. now i got 2 lincenses. one for the motorbike and 1 for the car. putting both on one card was a crazy idea i guess Edited October 24, 2013 by myluckythai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bocceball1 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Each to their own......I have no problem helping someone out that helps me out! I avoided a 4 hour sit down of boring nothing for 500 baht....thank-you and goodbye... And for the BIB ....AGAIN I have no problem giving them 100 baht for some traffic infraction....In the States the same infractions cost a minimum of $100 and your insurance goes up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitawatWatawit Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 What paperwork does a Thai citizen need to get a m/cycle licence? My daughter wants to get hers, but we were unable to get through to the Transport Ministry today. to find out. We'l go out to the registry tomorrow to find out, but it would be nice to save a trip.
