Udon Thani's DLT, in the neighbouring province, is a bigger office, and you can use either: any DLT office in Thailand can issue your licence. See our Udon Thani page.

Book through DLT Smart Queue before you go if you can.

Get your medical certificate at a clinic or hospital beforehand, and bring two copies of every document plus your passport, visa page and entry stamp.

Dress modestly: no sleeveless tops, very short shorts or flip-flops.

Residence Certificate for This Office

A licence application needs proof of your Thai address, usually a residence certificate from Immigration. Nong Khai Provincial Immigration is at 106 Moo 7, Mi Chai, Mueang Nong Khai 43000 (042-990-935), according to its own website. That is the provincial office, not the immigration checkpoint at the Friendship Bridge. Fees run 200-500 THB depending on the office.
