How to Renew Driver's License on 12123?
2 Answers
After logging into the Traffic Management Bureau's 12123 mobile app, locate the Business Service Center and select 'Renew Expired Driver's License' to enter the license renewal service. Follow the prompts to submit your ID photo and reapply. After reviewing the renewal service instructions, read and agree to proceed to the driver information confirmation page. You can then choose between self-pickup or mail delivery. For mail delivery, the post office will send it to the provided mailing address. For self-pickup, you need to visit a designated service point. Proceed to the license renewal submission page, reconfirm that all information is accurate, obtain SMS verification on your phone, and click submit after successful verification.
I just renewed my driver's license using the 12123 app last month, and the whole process was quite convenient, saving me the hassle of visiting the DMV. First, download and install the Traffic Management 12123 app, register with your phone number, and log in. Completing the real-name verification is crucial—don't skip that step. Then, on the homepage, tap 'Driver's License Services' and select 'License Renewal Upon Expiry' or the corresponding option. Follow the prompts to upload a photo of your ID card and a recent white-background ID photo—don’t be lazy and just snap a selfie, as the system checks the format. Next, fill in the mailing address and pay the 20 yuan fee for the new license, plus about 10 yuan for shipping (remember to choose WeChat Pay). The whole process takes about 5 minutes, and your new license will arrive in a couple of days. By the way, if you're renewing because your license is expiring, make sure to get a medical checkup beforehand and upload the report—otherwise, your application will be rejected.
