ID No. on Thai driving licence

[JOHN CHAN]

I am British holding a Thai driving licence. Besides my driving licence, my ID No. on it is in the form of 09-(followed by my UK Passport No.) Does anyone know what the number 09- mean? Thanks

Dunno best to ask your DLT that issued your licence, maybe it's their way of office coding the ID No. using a passport No.

Thai ID numbers are 13 digits, UK passport No's. are only 9 well my is.

My 5 year Thai DL always has a Thai ID No. now not passport No. because our local DLT use the ID No. from the yellow house when that is used in renewal.

mine is my passport number: N 13xxxxx

no extras.

yours might be a local addition, like so many things here in t.

there don't appear to be fixed rules.

OP several people mentioned this in a previous thread (but cannot remember which one). Are you on a 2 year temporary licence?
