How to Apply for a Temporary Driving License?
2 Answers
Fill out the "Temporary Motor Vehicle Driving Permit Application Form" in Chinese as required. Entry and exit identification documents. A foreign motor vehicle driver's license, if it is not in Chinese, must be accompanied by a Chinese translation. Proof documents showing that the applicant's age and physical condition meet the requirements for a Chinese driving permit. Two one-inch color photos (recent front-facing, bareheaded, half-length photos with a white background).
Last time when I took the driver's license test, I applied for a temporary driving permit and the whole process went quite smoothly. First, I found a reliable driving school online to register, requiring my ID card and a few recent photos. Then I went to a designated hospital for a physical examination to check if my vision met the standard and my health was fine. The medical examination fee was about fifty yuan, quite cheap. Next, under the guidance of the driving school instructor, I reviewed the theory and did some mock tests, and finally passed the theoretical test (Subject 1) at the exam center. After passing, I waited a few days, and the driving school issued me a paper-based learner's driving permit to prove my identity during driving practice. The entire application took about two weeks and cost approximately over a thousand yuan, including registration, training, and certification fees. I think the key is not to delay; preparing the materials early can save time. Showing this permit during driving practice allows you to start the practical training.
