It usually takes one to two hours after passing the test for the driver's license information to be displayed. Below is relevant information about the driver's license examination: 1. Meaning of the driver's license examination: The driver's test (motor vehicle driver's examination) is a qualification examination organized by the Vehicle Management Office of the Public Security Bureau. Only by passing the driver's test can one obtain a driver's license and legally drive motor vehicles. 2. Regulations for failing the make-up test: Each subject is tested once, and those who fail can retake the test once. Applicants who do not participate in the make-up test or still fail the make-up test will have their current examination terminated and must reschedule the test.

When I first got my driver's license, I was so eager to check the electronic version on the 12123 app that I refreshed it several times that night but saw no updates. Actually, there's no need to be too anxious—the system backend needs some time to sync the information, usually within one to three business days after passing the exam. The driving school has to upload the test results first, and the DMV still needs to review and confirm them. Only after these processes are completed can the data go online for you to check. If it still hasn't updated after three or four days, I suggest clicking the 'Electronic License Update' button under the 'Driver's License Services' section in the app to manually sync. If that doesn’t work, call the driving school to see if the materials are stuck. In the meantime, avoid constantly refreshing the app—just be patient. After all, you’ll still have to wait for the physical card to arrive by mail after receiving the paper version on the spot, and the timing for the electronic license to appear is roughly the same.

I've been through the process of waiting for the 12123 app to display the driver's license. After passing the subject 4 test and signing, the examiner reminded me that the electronic driver's license would take a few days to generate. The exact time varies—for example, if you take the test on a Friday, weekends don't count as working days, so it might not appear until the following Wednesday or Thursday. The key is that the backend data needs to be transferred from the test center to the DMV system and then integrated into the national platform. In fast-moving cities, it might show up the next day, while in remote areas, it could take up to a week. In my case, I logged into the app the next afternoon and found the electronic license already available. Just remember to complete the real-name authentication for your account first to see the full details. Another tip is to check the license status in the app—if it says 'In Production,' wait for the notification; if it shows 'Not Found,' it means the materials haven't been fully uploaded yet, and you might need to nudge the driving school counter.

The 12123 traffic management app shows no fixed update time for driver's license renewal. In principle, your exam pass information is first recorded in the local system before synchronizing with the Ministry of Public Security database. This data transfer process typically takes 2-3 days on average - while it could take over a week in earlier years, the system has since been accelerated. When I took my test during a system upgrade period, my license information automatically appeared when I logged into the app the next day. Make sure the phone number linked to your account remains active, and try pulling down to refresh the page several times after logging in. If there's still no update after five days, check your local vehicle management office's official website for any delay announcements.
