Do you really need an International Driving Permit (IDP) in Thailand? 🇹🇭

Short answer: ✅ Yes

Even though many tourists drive without it, Thai law requires an IDP if you’re using a foreign license.

👉 Without IDP:

• You can get fined

• Insurance may not cover you

• Rental issues can happen

👉 Best practice: Always carry an IDP.

Anyone here planning Thailand soon?
