Can I cancel my appointment for Subject 3 after booking?
3 Answers
You can cancel your appointment for Subject 3 after successfully booking it. For those who need to cancel after confirming the exam appointment, they must visit the exam service window of the local Vehicle Management Office with their original ID card (residence permit required for non-local residents) or a staff member from the driving school to cancel at least three working days before the scheduled exam date. Methods to cancel a self-booked Subject 3 appointment after successful booking: 1. The Driving Test Center information platform allows cancellation of the Subject 3 exam appointment, with the latest cancellation time being before 12:00 noon the day before the scheduled exam date. 2. To cancel the Subject 3 exam, the examinee must personally bring their ID card and a copy of it to the Vehicle Management Office. On the blank space of the ID copy, they must write: 'I voluntarily cancel my Subject 3 exam scheduled on xx/xx/xxxx at xx Driving School,' along with their signature, contact information, and the date. 3. If the examinee is unable to come to the Driving Test Center in person, a proxy must bring both their own ID card and a copy, as well as the examinee's ID card and copy. In addition to writing the above content, the proxy must also sign their name.
I remember when I was taking my driver's license test last year, I suddenly got a fever after scheduling the Subject 3 exam and had to cancel quickly. It was simple—just log into the 12123 APP, find the scheduled record, and click the cancel button. However, you must cancel at least two days in advance to avoid fees; otherwise, there might be a small handling charge. If you cancel on the exam day itself, it will count as a no-show and affect your next scheduling opportunity. I recommend handling any changes promptly—after canceling, you can choose a new time slot and reschedule to avoid wasting slots and money. There are often unexpected changes during driving lessons, so staying flexible is key. In short, canceling isn’t hard, but you must follow the rules and act early—don’t wait until the last minute.
I understand many people worry about not being able to cancel after booking, but actually the driving test system is quite user-friendly. You can simply log in to the official platform or APP and enter the booking interface to cancel, usually requiring at least 48 hours in advance. If you cancel late due to sudden circumstances, there might be a small fee but you won't be permanently blacklisted. I find it very convenient to cancel and rebook, though doing it too frequently may lower your credit score. It's best to plan your schedule before booking, but if necessary, cancellation is no big deal. With today's convenient online services, there's really no need to worry about this.
