Can the lottery driving license information be changed?
2 Answers
Lottery driving license information can be changed. Vehicle management office processing procedures: Go to the vehicle management office, traffic police branch, or district (city) county traffic police brigade to take a number and then submit the materials at the acceptance window. Required materials: The original motor vehicle driving license of the applicant; the original valid identity proof of the applicant, and the valid residence permit for temporary residents; if the employing unit has changed, a certificate issued by the employing unit is required. Note: Foreign applicants who need to change their motor vehicle driving license information must provide valid foreign identity proof and a foreigner accommodation registration certificate issued by the local public security police station.
Of course, the driver's license information for the lottery can be changed. I have personal experience with this. When I was participating in the Beijing license plate lottery, I lost my driver's license and had to get a replacement, which came with a new number, so I needed to update the system information. I directly logged into the online service platform of the traffic management bureau, found the personal information modification entry, uploaded a photo of my new driver's license and a copy of my ID card, and the review was approved in about a week. The process was quite smooth, but I recommend handling any changes immediately—don't delay—because the lottery eligibility is based on the latest data. If you don’t update it in time, you might not be able to get the license plate even if you win the lottery, which would be a real shame. Also, keep an eye on policy changes, as some cities now support app operations, saving you a trip. Overall, timeliness is key—don’t lose out on big opportunities because of small delays, as it could affect your place in the queue.
