Can a C1 license be directly upgraded to an A2 license now?
1 Answers
According to the new regulations, an A2 (tractor) driver's license cannot be obtained directly through application; it can only be acquired through license upgrading. A C1 license cannot be directly upgraded to an A1 or A2 vehicle type, but it can be directly upgraded to an A3, B1, or B2 license. Below is the relevant content introduction: 1. A2 license: The A2 license is not something you can simply sign up for and take the test. Because China's driver's license management system is tiered, to upgrade to a higher-level license, you must meet a series of conditions to qualify for the test. You can first obtain a B license, which requires three years of driving experience and no record of accumulating 12 penalty points in the current scoring cycle or the one before application. After obtaining the B license, you must have another three years of driving experience and no record of accumulating 12 penalty points in the three scoring cycles before application to qualify for the A2 license. 2. Upgrading regulations: The 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses' stipulate the conditions for upgrading the permitted vehicle types of a driver's license: Article 14 states that if you already hold a motor vehicle driver's license and apply to add a permitted vehicle type, you must have no record of a full score (12 points) in the current scoring cycle and the most recent scoring cycle before application.
