Download the nationally unified "Traffic Management 12123" app. Register a personal account. On the homepage, select "Driver's License," then choose "Electronic Version of Driver's License." Submit information such as ID photos. Confirm and submit the electronic driver's license application information on Traffic Police 12123. The public security traffic management department will review it within one working day. The result will be notified to the driver via SMS and "Traffic Management 12123." Upon receiving the notification, the driver should log in to "Traffic Management 12123." Open the "Electronic Driver's License" function, and the system will automatically download the electronic version of the driver's license. Once the download is complete, it can be presented.
As a working professional in Xi'an, I recently had a smooth experience applying for an electronic driver's license. The entire process was completed on my phone. First, I downloaded the Traffic Management 12123 app and verified my account with a mobile phone number during registration. After logging in, I found the electronic driver's license application entry in the services section, uploaded photos of both sides of my ID card and my driver's license photo, and the system automatically recognized the information. The approval usually takes about an hour, after which I could view my electronic driver's license in the app. When driving, if stopped by traffic police for inspection, simply showing the screen of my phone is sufficient, as Xi'an traffic police fully recognize it. The benefits are numerous—no need to carry a physical license, avoiding loss or forgetting it. The app also allows checking for violations, paying fines, and scheduling exams, all in one place. Electronic driver's licenses are also eco-friendly, reducing paper waste. I recommend all friends in Xi'an give it a try for a more hassle-free daily commute.
