Once you've got a Driving License (Car or Motorbike), you have to renew it after one year. You can then apply to a 5 Year one. Here are the documents and information you will need:

1. ALWAYS make sure that your existing license has EXPIRED, don't turn up on the day it is expiring, or they will tell you to come back when it HAS expired - daft as it sounds that's the way they apply the rules,

2. You WILL require a current medical certificate,

3. One copy of the main page of your passport and current visa page both signed by yourself,

4. Proof of place of residence from local immigration department, not older than 30 days,

5. You do NOT need to provide new photos, as they now are able to take the photo and the photo is incorporated into the new style driving license, which not only incorporates the pic of yourself but the details of you name and date of birth etc in English as well as Thai.

6. Total cost of 630 Baht for a car license renewal.
