Can I Get a Refund After Enrolling in a Driving School?

[VanBriella]

You can get a refund after enrolling in a driving school. Below is the relevant information: If a student enrolls in a driving school but no longer wishes to continue, they can request a refund, but the situation varies. If the student terminates their enrollment due to personal reasons, such as illness or job relocation, and has not started any training, the driving school will generally issue a full refund. However, if the student has already taken the written test (Subject 1) or the practical test (Subject 2), the refund amount will depend on the driving school's refund policy. Since there is no unified refund standard, it is difficult to determine the exact amount. Generally, the enrollment fee includes the driving school's training fee and the examination fee charged by the vehicle management office. The refund standards based on the student's progress are as follows: 1. If the student has enrolled but has not undergone a medical examination or failed the medical exam, a deduction of 100 RMB will apply. 2. If the student has passed the medical exam but has not taken the theoretical test, a deduction of 320 RMB will apply. 3. If the student has taken the theoretical test but has not started practical training, a deduction of 580 RMB will apply. 4. If the student has started field training but has not taken the test, a deduction of 580 RMB plus the actual training hours multiplied by the hourly rate (100 RMB/hour for small vehicles, 150 RMB/hour for large vehicles) will apply. 5. If the student has taken the Subject 2 test, no refund will be issued. Students are reminded to keep the original invoice from the driving school enrollment. Losing it may cause difficulties during the refund process. If a dispute arises with the driving school over the refund and no agreement is reached, students can call the Transportation Management Bureau complaint hotline (12328) for mediation.
