How to Check the Validity Period of the Driving Test?
2 Answers
There are two methods to check the validity period of the driving test: 1. Log in to the Internet Traffic Safety Comprehensive Service Management Platform to inquire: Click on the Learning Driving Certificate, and the page will display the validity start date and end date of the student's learning driving certificate; 2. Log in to the Traffic Management 12123 to inquire: Click on the Test Appointment, and when selecting the test site, the remaining period of the driving test will be displayed. Here is some relevant information about the driving test: 1. Learning Driving Certificate: After passing the Subject 1 test, the Vehicle Management Office will issue a Learning Driving Certificate within one day. The Learning Driving Certificate can be in paper or electronic form, both with equal validity. It can be printed or downloaded from the Internet Traffic Safety Comprehensive Service Management Platform. 2. Validity Period of the Test: The general validity period is within three years from the date of registration. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," the validity period of the driving skill test certificate for first-time applicants or those applying to add permitted driving types is three years. Applicants must complete the Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests within the validity period. If the tests are not completed within the validity period, the passed test subjects will be invalidated.
The most dreaded thing during the driver's license test is missing the validity period. Back when I passed Subject 1, I received the Study Driving Certificate, which serves as your exam pass. It clearly states the expiration date. Typically, it's valid for three years, starting from the day you pass Subject 1. If you didn't receive a paper copy, just open the Traffic Management 12123 APP, log in, and click on the Study Driving Certificate under the driver's license services section—the validity period is prominently displayed in the digital version. Remember to remind yourself to check it regularly. I have a friend who realized it was about to expire and had to practice driving overnight in a panic. You can also check this certificate at the driving school's registration office—coaches have records in their computers. When practicing, it's best to ask the driving school about the expiration month and plan ahead to avoid exceeding the deadline. Otherwise, Subjects 2 and 3, which you've already passed, will be invalidated, and you'll have to retake them.
