Please does anyone know if it is possible to take a driving test to get a licence for a vehicle heavier than 3500kg here in Thailand ?
If so how and where ?
Driving licence for heavy vehicle
Re: Driving licence for heavy vehicle
I never actually tried a stand alone, but as my Australian licence is for heavy goods vehicles, when I first obtained a Thai licence I was told that "aliens" are not permitted!
May you be in heaven half an hour before the devil know`s you`re dead!
Re: Driving licence for heavy vehicle
Oh what a pity, we wanted to get a camper but need to have a licence for a vehicle heavier than 3500kg and we were hoping to get a licence here.
Nevermind, thank you very much for your swift reply
Have a pleasant day
Re: Driving licence for heavy vehicle
Well, like everything else, there is probably a way around it. If you are looking to buy an RV van, then it may help if it is through a dealer, then "no licence, no deal" if he cannot help you!

Re: Driving licence for heavy vehicle
Sure good one
But we are looking to get one in the UK and drive around Europe so we need a proper licence which I was hoping to get here.
Thanks anyway for your input, appreciate

You can get 4 berth campervans in the UK that are not over 3.5 tonnes in weight. Would that not be sufficient?joelle wrote:Oh what a pity, we wanted to get a camper but need to have a licence for a vehicle heavier than 3500kg and we were hoping to get a licence here.

We were looking at 6 berth for more space but we are downsizing now and looking at smaller vans within the 3.5 tonnes.
Re: Driving licence for heavy vehicle
Depending on what the extra space is for, you could possibly additionally rent an awning (for dining, drinking, relaxing) or a trailer (for extra luggage storage). No real solutions for extra sleeping arrangements though.joelle wrote:Sure, it will have to be sufficient.hhinner wrote: ↑Tue Nov 28, 2023 10:23 amYou can get 4 berth campervans in the UK that are not over 3.5 tonnes in weight.

The Furrion Elysium might be a concept vehicle, but its magnificent design truly redefines the luxury mobile lifestyle. Thanks to its many fixtures, this glamorous RV is worth an incredible £2 million ($2.5m).
For this hefty sum, the plush fly-in home comes with a private rooftop helipad, a helicopter and a hot tub.
