You were lucky that you got the 5 year license maybe the pink card and yellow book confused things as usually it's only long term visa or extension of stay holders who have them.Barney wrote: ↑October 31, 2017, 10:20 amUpdate for AEK license office
Went to renew my 2 licenses yesterday, was a 2 year and it expired last April. Bike and car.
Went to the normal 80 baht doctor for the medical, staff advised that over 50 (don't quote me on the age) have to get hospital check now, new laws.
Went to the license office and up to the 2nd floor in the AEK hospital. Registered, did medical, 200bht
Back down to the license office, its 10.30 now. So not many in the waiting queue.
Provided 2 copies of all docs for both licenses.
Gave them
both old licenses
original and 1 copy of medical
2 copies of pink ID card
2 copies of yellow book
2 copies of passport
Paper work processed quickly photo taken and given a 5 year license for both. Date of the licenses start for 5 years from my next birthday end December. Did not request 5 years as I thought I would stay on 2 years as I am on visa exempt but she just gave it to me.
No check for visa as I don't have one.
760 bht for both license

Re: Renew drivers License AEK Udon
Hi STWW
I don't believe in luck.
But, I must be the luckiest bloke in UT. Have been told on numerous occasions by some well meaning guys over a beer that the below list of govt doc's was not possible without a visa.
Touch wood, as never had a problem doing anything.
Have been able to get
Usufruct
Car license, 1 yr, 2 x 2 yr and now a 5 year. Never had to sit in any training videos or tests.
Motor bike license same same and never had a bike license previously in Australia.
Pink ID card for 10 years
Yellow house book
All on visa exempt.
Must be the handsome man demeanor.

Re: Renew drivers License AEK Udon
I did my AEK trip last week, for renewal of bike and car licence.
Handed over my old licences, asked about the need for medical cert... you no need.
Told to sit down... then eventually called up , to to sign forms and then we all had to endure that mind numbing video for an hour, then take the colour traffic light test, then sit for god knows how long before new photo, but walked out with shinny new licences for 5 years each,
So all in all, no big deal.

Re: Renew drivers License AEK Udon
Yes, but you do not have a retirement visa unless you have a current Non-OA long stay visa from an embassy.
The difference between a visa and an extension of stay is not academic and is important.

Re: Renew drivers License AEK Udon
THAT statement? I will have to agree with! Effin idiots! - Most of the Thais in my group were asleep within 5 mins of it starting.and then we all had to endure that mind numbing video for an hour
They haven't bothered to figure why they are now top of the vehicle/bike deaths in the world! (per head of population)
AND the wan$@ke#s still only count the carnage on the roads - NOT those who pass away later in hospital from complications.

Re: Renew drivers License AEK Udon
I have Non O which I renew/ extend each year
So if I can’t get 5 year can I renew my 2 year drivers license at AEK Udon or do I have to slap down to the DLT?

Re: Renew drivers License AEK Udon
Again to repeat my answer with more detail: Yes you can renew either a 2year or 5year or 2year to 5year or 5year to 2year, best to do it just after the licence expires. But you will get a 5 year licence not a 2 year one because you have a long term extension of stay.
But you do not have a Non O visa, that has expired or been used, a Non-O visa can never be extended or renewed.
You have an extension of stay based on retirement, different beast, different rules, issued in different countries.

Re: Renew drivers License AEK Udon
Renewed drivers licence yesterday at the AEK hospital decided to get there early about 9.45am realised the doors were open already and people queuing up inside the office with the line going outside.
anyway managed the 1 hour video ordeal .
there were roughly about 18 people in the class.
renewed for another 5 years i came in about 2 months early which in turn gave me 5 years and 2 months at a total cost of 555baht.
No yellow book so letter from immigration original plus copies of passport page and visa entry and TM6 copy of the front and back of licence copy plus original licence of course.

Re: Renew drivers License AEK Udon
Just renewed my 2 year driving licenses for a 5 Year one.
Decided to go & try the main office on the Khon Kean highway after reading all the posts about renewing at AEK.
Arrived at the Office at 1040 am it is approx 13Km further than AEK & took approx 10 mins longer drive.
I was lucky to get a parking spot as the car park was quite full.
You have to go upstairs for license renewals.
Handed in my documents at desk 1 (inquiries).
Some Staff speak English & were very friendly & helpful.
Two copies of yellow book 2 copies of passport along with 2 copies of my visa extension & Tm 60 card.
I took 2 copies of my old license but they gave them back as not needed.
One copy of Medical Certificate & original obtained fro a Clinic for 100 B (not hospital as AEK sometimes ask for apparently).
Was directed to take the medical test (color blind test, Reaction Test & alignment test).
Did that then paid the fees 255 B for motorbike 505 B for car license.
Was the told to get photo taken & gave receipt for payment to woman who prints the license.
She gave me the 2 licenses then left the building at 1107 am (27 mins total time).
Did not have to watch video.
Maybe I was lucky but it was worth the 10 mins extra drive to save the hassle of queuing up at AEK .
