Do I need to go in person for a driver's license renewal?

No, you don't need to go in person to renew your driver's license when it expires. You can authorize an agent to handle the renewal on your behalf. According to regulations, the agent must bring the applicant's ID card, driver's license, medical certificate for motor vehicle drivers, the driver's photo, as well as the agent's own ID card to the vehicle management office to complete the renewal procedures. The required documents and precautions for driver's license renewal are as follows: Documents required for driver's license renewal: "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form"; the identity proof of the motor vehicle driver; the motor vehicle driver's license; a medical certificate issued by a county-level or above medical institution or a military medical institution at the regimental level or above. For those applying for a small automatic transmission passenger vehicle for the disabled, a medical certificate issued by a specialized medical institution designated by the provincial health department must be submitted. Precautions for driver's license renewal: Generally, drivers should complete the renewal procedures within three months before the driver's license expires. Since the renewal process takes some time, if the new license has not been received by the time the old one expires, the old license will become invalid. In the event of a traffic accident during this period, the insurance company will not provide compensation.
