1 Answers
An expired ID card can be replaced with a temporary ID card for taking the Subject 3 driving test. A temporary ID card has the same legal validity as a regular ID card and can be used as a formal ID within its 3-month validity period. Materials required for ID card replacement: The original Household Register of the applicant. Filled-out Application Form for Resident ID Card. Applicant's Proof of Replacement. ID photo receipt or on-site photo collection. Application process: Visit the local police station and request the household registration officer to issue a replacement proof for the lost ID card. Bring your Household Register, replacement proof, photo information (ID photo receipt), and the filled-out Application Form for Resident ID Card to the temporary ID card processing window at the police station. The window officer will review the application materials. If approved: Pay the applicable fee and receive a Certificate Collection Notice. If rejected: The officer will explain the reason. Collect the new ID card at the designated location by presenting the Certificate Collection Notice at the specified time. Note: Anyone acting as a proxy to apply for or collect an ID card must present their own ID card.
