Can I apply for a driver's license extension online?

Driver's license extension can be processed online, mainly through the 12123 platform. However, it should be noted that the maximum extension period does not exceed three years. The following is relevant information about driver's license extension: Application conditions: The motor vehicle driver cannot go through the formalities for renewing the motor vehicle driver's license upon the expiration of the validity period due to reasons such as military service or going abroad (border); The motor vehicle driver is not in a situation where the motor vehicle driver's license is revoked, withdrawn or canceled according to law; The cumulative score of the motor vehicle driver has not reached the full score. Notes: The motor vehicle driver or agent shall submit an extension application to the vehicle management office of the motor vehicle driver's license issuing place within the specified time limit. The extension period shall be calculated from the expiration date of the driver's license validity period, and the maximum shall not exceed three years.

Now you can indeed renew your driver's license online. I've gone through the entire process using the Traffic Management 12123 App. The prerequisite is that your license must not have been expired for more than one year, and you need to complete and upload the medical examination report. After logging in, select 'Driver's License Replacement/Renewal' and follow the system prompts to proceed. After filling in the information, choose either mail delivery or self-pickup for the new license. However, note that there are several situations where you must visit the service window in person: if your license has demerit points or unresolved violations, or if you need to submit special medical condition certificates, online renewal won't be possible. Last year, my colleague renewed his license online super fast—he received the new license in just three days, saving him the hassle of queuing at the vehicle management office. It's recommended to start the process three months in advance.

Driver's license extension can be processed online. I just helped an elderly family member complete the procedure last month. Download the Traffic Management 12123 App, register and log in, then locate the driver's license services module. The system will first verify identity information, request uploading a medical examination report within the last six months, and allow you to select a mailing address and make the payment. Key points include ensuring the driver's license status is normal without any full-point violation records, and the photo must meet requirements. The entire process takes less than ten minutes, much more convenient than visiting the vehicle management office, especially suitable for elderly individuals with mobility difficulties. However, offline processing is better suited for those who need on-site consultation, such as individuals with unresolved historical traffic violations who still need to visit the service window.

Driver's license extension can be processed online, but there are some restrictions to note. First, you must meet the conditions: the license has not been expired for more than one year, the demerit points are less than 12, and you have passed the medical examination. Second, prepare photos of your ID card and medical examination form. Third, log in to the Traffic Management 12123 platform, select 'license renewal upon expiration,' and follow the instructions. You can choose to have it mailed to you with payment on delivery or pick it up yourself. I just completed the process last week, and it only took four working days from application to receiving the new license. However, these situations require an in-person visit: transferring a foreign driver's license, replacing a lost or damaged license, or needing a re-examination due to special physical conditions.
