Can I apply for a motorcycle driver's license directly at the vehicle management office?

You can apply for a motorcycle driver's license directly at the vehicle management office, and the office will arrange the test after successful registration. Materials required for the motorcycle driver's license test: Local applicants need to provide their ID card and 8 passport-size photos with a white background. Non-local applicants also need to provide a temporary residence permit. For those applying for a motorcycle license upgrade, the original driver's license is also required. Age requirements for the motorcycle driver's license test: Applicants for a light motorcycle license must be between 18 and 70 years old. Applicants for a regular three-wheeled motorcycle or regular two-wheeled motorcycle license must be between 18 and 60 years old.
I remember when I got my motorcycle license last year, I went directly to the DMV to register. The whole process was quite smooth, but I had to prepare my ID card, copies, recent white-background photos, and a specific medical examination certificate from the hospital in advance. I spent some time getting my vision and hearing checked at a designated hospital, which didn’t cost much. At the DMV, the staff guided me through filling out the application form, and after paying a small registration fee, I was scheduled for the written test (Subject One). After passing the written test, I booked the practical driving test, which included maneuvers like slalom and stopping at intersections. I’d say the whole process took about a month, depending on the person. The key is to go on weekdays when it’s less crowded to avoid delays. I saved on driving school fees but had to spend time practicing on my own. Overall, I recommend checking the local DMV website before registering for the first time to avoid mistakes and unnecessary trips.
