Can electronic driver's licenses be used in cities where they are not yet implemented?
1 Answers
Electronic driver's licenses cannot be used in cities where they are not yet implemented. Issuance method of electronic driver's licenses: Electronic driver's licenses will be issued through the nationwide unified "Traffic Management 12123" app. Drivers in pilot cities can log in to the "Traffic Management 12123" app and follow the prompts to apply for an electronic driver's license. It should be noted that applicants must have a valid driver's license. If the license is suspended, temporarily revoked, overdue for medical examination, overdue for review, or announced as invalid, the applicant will not be able to obtain an electronic driver's license. Introduction to electronic driver's licenses: Electronic driver's licenses, commonly known as "e-licenses," were piloted in three cities—Tianjin, Chengdu, and Suzhou—starting from June 1, 2021, to provide drivers with online "license display" and "code display" services, improving convenience for public affairs and travel. They will be fully promoted nationwide in 2022.
