How to Renew a Driver's License After Six Years?
2 Answers
You need to go to a designated medical examination hospital for a physical examination and obtain the "Motor Vehicle Driver's Physical Condition Certificate". After obtaining the certificate, log in to the "Traffic Safety Comprehensive Service Platform Official Website or 12123", click on the driver's license business, and then proceed with the license renewal service function.
I just renewed my driver's license last week, and the whole process was quite simple. First, I went to a nearby hospital for a medical check-up, mainly to check if my vision was above 1.0 and to measure my blood pressure. It took less than half an hour, and after the doctor stamped it, I got the certificate. Then I went to the vehicle management office, bringing my ID card, old driver's license, and two one-inch photos. Since I didn’t make an appointment, I went early to queue. After filling out an application form, the staff took my photo and recorded my information. The review was done on the spot, and I got a new license in just a few minutes. The cost was only about twenty yuan. I think the key is to avoid peak times, like weekends when it’s crowded; it’s better to check the address of the vehicle management office in advance and make an online appointment if possible; the medical report must be valid within three months to avoid a wasted trip. The driver's license must be renewed every six years, so it’s better to get it done early to avoid the risk of driving with an expired license.
