5 common mistakes with Driver's License — and how to avoid them
These are common problems with Driver's License submissions. Checking them before lodgement reduces the risk of a request for further information.
1. Submitting expired evidence (police clearance and medical certificates expire after 12 months)
2. Incomplete scans of the source document (missing back pages, stamps, or signatures), forcing a redo of the work
3. Failing to translate stamps and signatures — DHA returns the file as 'incomplete translation'
4. Using a self-translation or non-NAATI translator — DHA and AHPRA reject these immediately and request a re-submission
5. Mistranslating Thai government terminology (e.g., translating 'Amphoe' as 'District', confusing it with Bangkok districts)
Acceptance is decided by the receiving authority; a correct translation does not guarantee an outcome.

Documents typically translated together (story bundle)
Driver's License is rarely translated on its own — most clients order it as part of a bundle for a visa, skills assessment or course application. NAATI Thailand offers 10-15% bundle pricing when documents are ordered together.
Skilled / PR bundle (subclass 189/190): Driver's License + Police Clearance (PCC) + Bank Statement + Employment Letter + Degree + Transcript. We archive the full bundle so you can re-download for up to 5 years.
Partner Visa bundle (subclass 820/801, 309/100): Driver's License + Marriage Certificate + Statutory Declaration + ID Card + House Registration. We can liaise directly with your migration agent or solicitor.
Citizenship by Descent bundle: Driver's License + child's birth certificate + parents' passports + parents' marriage certificate. Bundling typically saves สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่ versus ordering separately.
