The process of getting a Thai driving license will be much easier if you have a valid driving license from your home country in English or an International Driving Permit. In this case, you won’t have to pass the driving test and written exam. But this is applicable only if you apply for a driving license of the same type as you have in your home country driving license. In other words, if your home country’s driving license allows you to drive a car, you can get the same permission in your Thai driving license and so on without passing the driving test and the written exam. The contrary situation is that you have a car driving permit but you want to get a motorbike driving license. In this case, you will have to pass the driving test and the written examination.
