Thai Policeman Speaking in Malay Advises M’sians to Print Physical Licences Before Driving in Thailand

A viral video by a Thai police officer from the country’s Narathiwat province bordering Kelantan recently caught the attention of Malaysians as he explained one of the requirements for Malaysians to drive a vehicle there.

As of this writing, the video by the police officer @dadunayu.thai has been viewed over 1.5 million times and garnered more than 96,900 likes.

In the video, @dadunayu.thai spoke in the Kelantan-Pattani Malay language, locally known as ‘Phasa Yawi.’ This language is primarily spoken by Thai Malays in the southern provinces of Narathiwat, Pattani, and Yala in the country. It is the Bahasa Melayu dialect used by locals in Kelantan and Terengganu in Malaysia.

Addressing Malaysians traveling to Thailand and planning to drive vehicles there, the police officer elaborated that he had received many queries from Malaysians on the driving license requirements for Malaysians to drive vehicles in the country.

@dadunayu.thai asserted that Malaysia has implemented digital driving licenses nowadays. Accordingly, he advised travelers from our country to have either a digital or a physical license with them at all times when driving in Thailand.

However, as a precaution, he advised Malaysians to bring a physical license and not rely solely on the digital version, as some Thai police officers may not accept them.

He added that if you don’t have a physical driving license, it’s best to go to the Malaysian Road Transport Department (JPJ) to print a physical copy before coming to Thailand.

For reference, all citizens of ASEAN nations don’t need to have an international driving license to drive in each others’ countries, as your country’s driving licenses are accepted in all ASEAN countries.
