Obtaining a local drivers licence
Obtaining a local drivers licence
Hi All. We are moving to Hua Hin to retire shortly and will be applying for a local drivers license. I have been told that you need to obtain an international drivers license before coming in order to apply. Does any one know if this is correct or what the process is. Thanks

If your existing drivers license from your home country is in English language, then an International Driving Permit is not a prerequisite for applying for a Thai drivers license.
