paulinbkk111 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Hi! Great pinned checklist for getting a motorcycle, cheers! For a motorbike license, will my work permit be accepted instead of a certificate of residence? Im in Bangkok and keep hearing different stories. Also it seems that my drivers license MUST come from my country (Im Aussie, so need Aussie license), but mine is from Vietnam. Is that still accepted? Thanks all!

macknife Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 If you have a work permit then you do not need a cert of residence. You don't need a any license to buy a bike, but you need one to ride it legally. I'm not 100% but I would say the license from Vietnam would be fine for the first 3 months then you would need a Thai one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewrooney Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Work permit is good, no need for a residence certificate. Not sure about the Vietnam license, if I were you I would just take it with you when you go to get your Thai driver's license and ask them. If they accept it, you'll be able to skip the test. If not, you'll have to do the test. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eeeya Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 You need original work permit too.. not copy. If to hard just go to Aussie embassy and do stat dec for 500 baht. Doesnt take long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa al Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) "stat dec" I just love the Oz vernacular. papa leared that "I'm strine" [one syllable] means: I'm Australian. [four] Edited April 23, 2015 by papa al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
