Go to the service window of the local vehicle management office to obtain and fill out the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form" correctly. Submit the required documents and the completed "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form" at the service window of the local vehicle management office, and obtain the driver's license business acceptance receipt. Use the driver's license business acceptance receipt to pay the handling fee at a POS machine or any branch of China Construction Bank. The processing time is three working days. When picking up the new license, you will need the driver's license business acceptance receipt, the original driver's license, and the identity proof of the person picking it up.
I recently renewed my driver's license, and the process was actually quite simple, mainly involving a few steps. First, go to the local DMV or a designated hospital for a physical exam, which usually includes a vision test, and get a medical certificate. Then, bring your ID card, original driver's license, and a one-inch photo to the DMV counter to fill out an application form. Nowadays, you can also use the Traffic Management 12123 APP to handle it online by uploading the required materials, saving you the hassle of queuing. Remember to start the process one month in advance to avoid expiration, otherwise, you won't be able to drive. The cost is just a few dozen yuan, including the processing fee and medical exam fee. The whole process can be completed in half a day if everything goes smoothly. Driving with a new license feels more reassuring. I’ve also heard that some places have self-service kiosks, making it even more convenient. Don’t forget to check the new license for any errors in the information.
