Is a Residence Permit Required for Taking the Driver's License Test in Yuncheng?
2 Answers
No residence permit is required for taking the driver's license test in Yuncheng. Below are the specific regulations for obtaining a driver's license: One-Certificate Nationwide Test: With a personal resident ID card, individuals can directly apply for a small car driver's license (Class C) in any city nationwide without submitting a residence permit or residence registration certificate, further facilitating the public to take the test and obtain the license conveniently and independently. Residents from Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan who work or live in mainland China can use their residence permits for Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan residents without submitting accommodation registration certificates or other proofs. Cross-Region Subject Tests: Mainland residents with resident ID cards and residents from Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan with their respective residence permits can directly apply to the local vehicle management office for a change of test location. After changing the test location, they can directly schedule the remaining subject tests at their current place of residence, with previously passed subject test scores remaining valid. Upon passing all subject tests, the driver's license can be directly obtained at the current test location.
I remember the driver's license test process very clearly. Last year, I inquired at the Yuncheng Vehicle Management Office. Local residents can register with just their ID card, but if the ID doesn't start with Yuncheng, you must present the original residence permit. I was in a hurry when I applied, so I went directly to the police station to get a temporary residence registration certificate as a stopgap—a printed document valid for six months also works. Coach Wang from the driving school privately told me that many out-of-town students recently got stuck at this stage, and those lacking materials had to return to their hometown to take the test. Don’t be afraid of the hassle—just visit the government service hall in advance to get it sorted.
