TDLS Thai Drivers License Service
TDLS Level 20, 725 Sukhumvit Rd, Watthana, Bangkok 10110
TDLS earns its following. The 98% pass rate is a meaningful number because the written exam requires 45 out of 50 correct answers, and the aptitude battery catches people who assume it is easy. A concierge service at this price point makes sense for anyone on a work permit who cannot afford to repeat the process. The one catch: weekends do not exist here.
Sitting on Level 20 of the Metropolis building at 725 Sukhumvit Road, TDLS operates Monday through Friday, 9AM to 5PM, and is closed on weekends. The location puts it squarely in Watthana, accessible from the BTS corridor that most expats already navigate daily.\n\nThe service covers the full spectrum of license needs for foreigners: new Thai driving licenses, foreign license conversions, renewals, motorcycle add-ons, International Driving Permits, residence certificates, and vehicle registration transfers. Each engagement follows a four-step structure: an initial consultation to assess your specific visa and document situation, full document preparation including medical certificates and certified translations, accompanied attendance at the DLT office with Thai-language support throughout, and same-day license issuance if all tests are passed. The government fees TDLS handles on your behalf are modest: 205 THB for a two-year car license or 505 THB for a five-year version. The TDLS service fee sits on top of that, but the company publishes its pricing at tdl-service.com/prices for transparency.\n\nNew applicants face more steps than converters. From 2026, all foreigners applying for a new license must first complete the DLT e-learning module at dlt-elearning.com, roughly four hours of video content, before their DLT appointment. At the DLT office itself, the sequence runs: document verification, a one-to-two-hour video/classroom session, four aptitude assessments covering color recognition, reaction time, depth perception, and peripheral vision, a 50-question written exam requiring a 90% pass mark, and a closed-course practical test. The practical test is waived for those converting an existing foreign license, which is the faster route if you qualify.\n\nThe office runs weekdays only.
