how24111 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Hi, does anyone have recent info or experience in renewing a 5 year Thai motorcycle license. It is not expired yet, expires Aug. 2022. What paperwork is needed ? Do I need an appointment or can I just come there and get in line ? Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the link it does say :- "I strongly advise arriving early at the Land Transport Office on the date you decide to renew your license." Not definitive, but it does suggest to me as 'no' Let us know how you get on as I'll be renewing mine shortly.👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommy dee Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 you need an appointment. for sure am doing mine now when you go to the DVLA place, ask at the tent marked Foreigner. she will check your licence and passport and give u an appointment within a few days. she also gives you a list of what you need. its dead easy you have to watch a shitty safety video online for an hour and that gives you a certificate at the end the list of needs is short. ffs dont pay an agent. they cant save you any leg work except for the immigration letter, which costs about 200 baht 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will definitely make an appointment. Do they still require a health letter from a clinic for a renewal ? If so, that's not a big deal, 200 baht doctor fee. Thanks again for your help.
