Are Driving Licenses Universally Valid?
1 Answers
Driving licenses are valid nationwide, but the license review must be conducted at the place where the license was originally issued. For convenience, vehicle owners may also choose to replace their license. According to national regulations, if the household registration of a motor vehicle driver is relocated outside the jurisdiction of the original vehicle management office, the driver should apply for a license replacement at the vehicle management office of the new location. If a motor vehicle driver resides outside the jurisdiction of the vehicle management office where the license was issued, they may also apply for a license replacement at the vehicle management office of their current residence. License transfer can be categorized into two types: license transfer-out and transfer-in. This refers to the procedure where vehicle owners, due to reasons such as job transfers or moving, relocate from their original place and transfer their driving license to their new residence to avoid the hassle of annual license reviews. Whether transferring out or in, the vehicle management office of the final residence jurisdiction serves as the licensing authority. License transfers can be summarized as local residents transferring in with an out-of-town license and non-local residents transferring in with an out-of-town license.
