Can I renew my expired driver's license on the 12123 app?
2 Answers
You cannot renew an expired driver's license on the 12123 app. If your driver's license has expired, you must go to the vehicle management office to process the renewal. Time regulations: If the expiration period is less than one year, you can renew it normally; if it has been expired for more than one year but less than three years, the license will be canceled, but you can renew it by passing the subject one exam; if it has been expired for more than three years, the license will be invalid and cannot be renewed. Required materials for renewal: Bring two copies of your ID card, two 1-inch recent color photos without a hat, the original ID card, the original driver's license, and a medical examination certificate from a county-level or above hospital (you can also get a free medical examination at the vehicle management office). Renewal process: The motor vehicle driver should bring the required materials to the vehicle management office where the driver's license was issued to apply for renewal. The vehicle management office will process the renewal within one working day after the review is approved.
I've researched traffic service apps, and 12123 is the official platform where you can handle overdue driver's license renewal. The operation is quite convenient: After downloading the app and logging into your account, enter the driver's license service section, select the renewal application, upload your ID photo and medical report (if required), then the system will process it. Typically, you can handle renewals online if the overdue period is within one year. If it exceeds one year, the app might reject the application, requiring you to personally visit the DMV to retake the written test. It's advisable to regularly check your driver's license's expiration date and address any overdue issues promptly to avoid fines during roadside checks. The app's interface is intuitive, saving you from queuing hassles. Always verify your document status before each trip—safety comes first.
