Can I undergo driver's license review procedures in a different location?

Previously, applying for a driver's license for large buses (A1) or tractor trailers (A2) required a step-by-step application process. After April 1st, there has been some relaxation for students receiving full-time driving vocational education. After obtaining a C1 driver's license, they can directly apply for an A1 or A2 driver's license. Additionally, before April 1st, those who had obtained a city bus driver's license (A3) could not directly upgrade to an A1 license. After April 1st, according to the new regulations, drivers can directly upgrade to an A1 license.
I'm someone who's always on the road for business. Last year, when my driver's license needed renewal while I was working in another city, I went to the local DMV and was surprised to find out I could handle it there. I just brought my ID and original driver's license, filled out a form at the counter, and it was done in less than half an hour. Now with the open policy, you don't have to go back to your hometown for renewal, saving a lot of hassle. You can also do it online through the Traffic Management 12123 APP, making an appointment in advance to avoid queues. I heard some places require a medical certificate, but you can get that from a local hospital too, which is very convenient. I'd advise friends to check the local procedures early when they're away to avoid delays and make travel arrangements smoother.
Having driven for a lifetime, I feel the current services are much more considerate. Even driver's license renewal can be handled in a different city. Last time I went to visit my grandson in my son's city, I took the opportunity to get it done. Just bring your ID card and driver's license to the local vehicle management office—the staff there are friendly and efficient. Although some steps like the medical check-up require a hospital visit, hospitals in other cities accept it just the same. This not only saves time but also money and effort. I recommend middle-aged friends to pay more attention to the APP, which allows you to track the progress anytime, eliminating the need to return to your hometown. With the fast pace of life, we should take advantage of such good policies to make travel planning more flexible.
There's no problem with getting your driver's license reviewed in a different location. I previously handled it directly at the vehicle management office while on a business trip in Shenzhen. Just bring your original ID card and driver's license, the staff will check your information, and you'll need to fill out a form to complete the process. If you need to update your photo or undergo a physical examination, it can be done at the same time. The whole process is simple and quick. Alternatively, you can download the Traffic Management 12123 APP and handle it on your phone, which is also convenient and takes only a few minutes to resolve. No need to go back to your hometown, saving both time and effort.
