In order to renew your car driver's licence after the first year of having a licence in Thailand, you must go to the purple building on the right hand side of Tesco Lotus near the Mall (looking from the Mittraphap Road). Head to the second floor and sit in the waiting room. You will need the following documents and papers:
No photos are necessary, they take one for you. Make sure that all your photocopies are signed before handing them in. After submitting all your documents, you will have to wait for the tests. There are 4 main tests that you will have to complete, though all are merely a formality:
When all the tests are finished, you will have to wait for your name to be called. They will take your photo for your licence and ask for the payment of 605 Baht (if you have changed your address since the last licence was obtained, you will have to pay an extra 50 Baht). The whole procedure takes about an hour, depending on how many people are queuing (an hour if there are 15 people), but once you have renewed it, you are good to go for another 5 years. Car tax and insurance can be purchased on the ground floor of the same building.
