San Paulo do it for 600 odd baht, Bangkok Hospital also issue the same thing for 1,300. I know which one I'd choose.

A couple of years ago wee needed a medical certificate so my wife could do an internal flight with Nok Air although we had flown in a week before from the UK.
Off she went and was back in less than one bottle of beer about 15 minuets :D she just paid her money and was asked do you feel well, and they wrote out a cert with no examination.

Similar to the driving licence medical then. The only requirement for that is the ability to reach your wallet, and extract some cash. :wink:

I went to that clinic opposite Soi 80 this morning for my Driving licence renewal. At reception they asked if it was for Work permit or Driving licence so I guess they will do both. Cost 100bht...go figure

They are different medicals. The DL one is a basic one, the WP one is more complex needs six separate tests (officially).
