International Driving Authority

Not valid in Thailand

The IDP from IDA is not valid in Thailand, despite their claims that it is - on my bike I presented a policeman with the card and the booklet and he did not accept it - I had to go to their office and pay 500 baht, and I asked the traffic police what is acceptable, and he showed me what a valid IDP looks like for Thailand - it does not look like the one offered by IDA and it cannot be obtained online - you need to apply in person with your overseas driving license at the nearest land transport office (or take a test if you don't have a driving license) - don't bother with any "online" service - they may have good customer service, but this is irrelevant if the license is not accepted in the country you are in or want to go to - don't waste your time and money and do thorough research beforehand about how to obtain what you need, officially
