Can I directly renew my driver's license if it is lost and about to expire?

[Eddie]

If a driver's license is lost and about to expire, the driver can apply for a replacement at the vehicle management office where the license was originally issued or at any other vehicle management office. During the replacement process, the driver can also apply for the renewal of the expiring license. Below are specific details about driver's licenses: 1. Renewal Regulations: If the driver has not accumulated 12 penalty points in any scoring cycle during the six-year validity period of the license, they can renew it for a ten-year validity period. If the driver has not accumulated 12 penalty points in any scoring cycle during the ten-year validity period, they can renew it for a long-term valid license. 2. Content: A driver's license records the holder's ID number, name, gender, date of birth, permanent address, nationality, permitted vehicle types, initial issuance date, validity period, and administrative records. It also includes the issuing authority's seal, file number, and the holder's photo. The design of the driver's license is regulated by the Ministry of Public Security.
