Finding it: from the Rama II Road frontage road in front of Samut Sakhon Wittayalai School, turn onto Wichian Chodok Road (Tha Chin Soi 4). The office entrance is about 850 m along on the left.

The listing gives 8:00-15:00. That is an hour earlier at both ends than many offices, so plan a morning visit.

Two phone numbers are listed for this office and neither is confirmed by a second source. Try both, and use the DLT hotline 1584 if neither answers.

We found no district branch in the listings, so this is the office for the whole province.

Samut Sakhon is one of Thailand's biggest factory provinces, with more than 6,000 factories, and many of its foreign residents are Myanmar workers. If you hold a Myanmar licence, read our Myanmar licence conversion guide first. Getting your documents translated is your own job; we don't offer translation.

Any DLT office can issue your licence. From the Bangkok end of Rama II Road, Bangkok Area 1 at Bang Khun Thian is another option.

Book through DLT Smart Queue where possible, get your medical certificate at a clinic 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.
