C1 Driver's License Review Period?
1 Answers
C1 driver's licenses do not require annual review, but they must be renewed within 90 days before the expiration date. The initial C1 driver's license is valid for 6 years, with no need for annual review during this period. The second renewal results in a validity period of "10 years", and the third renewal results in a "permanent" validity period. Below is more information about driver's licenses: 1. Handling of driver's licenses expired for less than one year: Driving with a driver's license that has exceeded its validity period for less than one year will result in a fine of 1,000 yuan for the driver according to the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" if discovered. However, within one year of expiration, the driver can still renew the license at the traffic management department, but a fine of 200 to 500 yuan will be imposed for "failing to participate in the review on time". 2. Handling of driver's licenses expired for one to three years: If the license is not renewed within one to three years after expiration, the license will be in a "revocable but recoverable" status. The driver must pass a legal exam at the vehicle management office to renew the license. Driving during this period will be considered unlicensed driving, and insurance companies will not cover any accidents. 3. Handling of driver's licenses expired for more than three years: If the license is not renewed for more than three years after expiration, it will be revoked, and the driver will need to retake the driver's license exam.
