Medical certificates

Official, doctor-signed medical certificates for a driving licence, work permit, dive course or visa — usually issued while you wait. Walk in, or we'll come to you.

Sorted in one short visit

Most people need a medical certificate the day they realise they need one — renewing a driving licence, starting a job, signing up for a dive course. A doctor does a quick assessment and issues the signed, stamped certificate on the spot, in English or Thai.

The three we're asked for most

Driving licence

Whether it's your first Thai licence, a renewal, or the medical for an international driving permit, we do the required check — colour vision, basic mobility and a doctor's assessment — and issue the certificate the same visit.

Work permit

Thai work permits need a medical certificate confirming you're free of the conditions listed in the regulations. We complete the standard form and sign it on the spot.

PADI diving medical

Dive schools ask for a fitness-to-dive certificate when your medical questionnaire flags anything. A doctor reviews the PADI / RSTC diving medical form, examines you and signs you off to dive — before your course starts.

One thing to know

Retirement (O-Visa) medical certificates must legally be issued by a hospital, not a clinic — so that one is outside what we can provide. For everything else on the list above, we've got you.

What to bring

  • Your passport (or Thai ID card)
  • For a diving medical: the PADI / RSTC form if your dive school gave you one
  • Any relevant medical history or current medications
  • Nothing else — we keep it simple

What it costs

Certificate fees are modest and depend on the type. Message us on WhatsApp with the certificate you need and we'll confirm the price and what to bring before you come in.
