Thai License Okay in Cambodia?
Thai License Okay in Cambodia?
Hi,
I live in Thailand for years and have 5-year licenses for both cars and motorcycles in Thailand. Can I legally drive on the road here in Cambodia with those? Because of ASEAN, can I simply exchange my Thai license for a Cambodian license?

Re: Thai License Okay in Cambodia?
Idk about exchanging, but anyone with a valid foreign licence who is resident here can get a one year Cambodian licence.
Re: Thai License Okay in Cambodia?
Not valid in Cambodia. If you want to exchange your license then it have to be of same nationality as your passport.
Re: Thai License Okay in Cambodia?
Are you Thai?
The law says 'home country' licenses can be exchanged, not sure a Thai license from a non Thai is accepted for exchange.

Not sure whether this is true if the license is from another country than your 'home country' (passport nationality).armchairlawyer wrote: ↑Thu Jul 22, 2021 9:09 am Idk about exchanging, but anyone with a valid foreign licence who is resident here can get a one year Cambodian licence.
Re: Thai License Okay in Cambodia?
You can only convert a license from your home country, must match your passport.

International Driving Permits are now allowed in Cambodia.

Re: Thai License Okay in Cambodia?
sort of correct,
A thai license is legally valid in Cambodia thru ASEAN
BUT in reality the times over the past 14 odd years of driving in Cambodia with a Thai registered car, i have shown my Thai license, 2 times it was accepted, after I and my Cambodian gf argued with the police ....3x it was not and I was fined
2nd part I have been told that i can obtain a Cambodia license showing my Thai license but have not put it to the test<
i placed this in a thread if anyone cares to find it.
Good luck
