How Many Days Does It Take to Renew a Driver's License Online?

Generally, the online application for license renewal takes 2 to 3 days to complete the acceptance of the renewal service. The full name of the driver's license is the motor vehicle driver's license, also known as the "driver's license," which is the certificate required by law for motor vehicle drivers. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Calculation Cycle: The calculation starts from the day the driver's license is first issued, with every 12 months constituting a cycle. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," Article 65, the cumulative scoring cycle for road traffic safety violations (i.e., the scoring cycle) is 12 months, with a full score of 12 points, calculated from the date the motor vehicle driver's license is first issued. 2. Scoring: Based on the severity of road traffic safety violations, the points deducted for a single violation are categorized into five types: 12 points, 6 points, 3 points, 2 points, and 1 point.

Last year, it took me three days to renew my driver's license through the Traffic Management 12123 app. The mobile application process was indeed convenient. First, you need to visit a hospital for a physical exam and obtain the report. After uploading your photo and the physical exam results, the system will review them—this part's timing is uncertain, but mine was approved the next day. The time it takes to produce the new license depends on the efficiency of your local vehicle management office; in cities like Beijing and Shanghai, it's usually mailed out the same day. The entire process can take as little as two to three days, or up to about five days at most. A crucial point is to ensure all fines and traffic violations are settled beforehand, or the system may delay the review. It's advisable not to drive until you receive your new license, as the mailed paper document holds legal validity.

Several friends around me have tried renewing their licenses online, and it generally takes three to four days to receive the new one. You need to allocate enough time for taking and uploading photos – the photo must be a white-background ID photo taken within the last six months. After submitting the materials, keep refreshing the system to check the progress; sometimes it can be frustrating when stuck at 'pending review.' If you encounter system maintenance or material issues, call 12123 to follow up – usually, after resubmitting the documents, it will proceed the next day. At the latest, the courier should deliver it by the seventh day. Just this month, I helped my father with the process – you can apply up to 90 days before the old license expires, and avoiding the end-of-month rush makes the process faster.

The most time-consuming part of renewing a driver's license online is actually the review process. It usually takes 1 business day from application submission to approval, followed by 1 day for the DMV to produce the new license, and then 2 days for intra-province delivery or 3+ days for inter-province delivery via express mail. A complete cycle of 3-7 days is normal. Last time I submitted my application early Wednesday and received it via postal express by Friday afternoon. However, processing gets delayed during holidays - my Mid-Autumn Festival renewal got stuck for five days. Remember to check logistics status anytime via mobile throughout the process, as the 12123 app updates each step's status.
