How long before the driver's license expires should it be renewed?

Generally, the renewal procedure should be completed within 3 months before the driver's license expires. The following is relevant information: 1. Exceeding the deadline: If the license is overdue for less than one year, it can still be renewed normally. If the license is overdue for more than one year but less than three years without renewal, the driver must take the subject one exam at the vehicle management office. Passing the exam allows for normal renewal. If the license renewal period exceeds three years, the vehicle management office will cancel the driver's license. 2. Preparation for renewal: All violations must be handled and fines paid before renewal. If there are changes in identity information during the renewal process, the small box for identity information changes must be checked, the changes written in the following boxes, and the changed content filled in the last box. If you wish to lower the permitted driving vehicle type during renewal, you must check the box for voluntarily lowering the permitted driving vehicle type.
I remember when my driver's license was about to expire, I had to renew it in advance, otherwise I couldn't drive. Generally, you need to complete the renewal procedures within 90 days before the expiration date. I've been driving for many years, and once I was so busy with work that I waited until the last few days to go to the DMV. As a result, I had to wait in a long queue and almost missed the deadline. Later, I was even fined by the traffic police during a check—it was no joke. Since then, I've learned my lesson and check my license expiration date every year. Now, I prepare two or three months in advance, just bringing my ID card, photos, and medical report for a quick visit. One more thing: if your license expires and you don't renew it, driving is considered unlicensed, and the fines are hefty. Safety first—don't take that risk.
