It is necessary to transfer the file for taking the fourth subject exam in another location. If you encounter any issues, you can file a complaint with the transportation management bureau, the governing body of the original driving school. The fourth subject exam, also known as the theoretical exam for drivers, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The test consists of 50 questions, primarily in the form of case studies, images, animations, etc., with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90. You need to bring your ID card to the vehicle management office in the city you are transferring to. Make sure it is an office that handles inter-city transfers, as some cities have multiple branch offices, and not all of them accept inter-city transfer applications. It is advisable to call ahead and confirm whether the office can process inter-city transfers. To apply for taking the fourth subject exam in another location, simply bring your ID card to the vehicle management office in your current residence to complete the exam location change procedure. There is no need to return to the original exam location, nor is it necessary to submit additional documents such as a residence permit or temporary residence permit. Additionally, you only have one chance to change the exam location. After the change, all remaining subject exams and the license collection must be completed in the new city.
During my driving school training, I learned that if you have passed subjects one, two, and three and now want to take subject four in another location, you usually need to transfer your records. This is because the records contain your previous exam results, and if they aren't transferred, the local vehicle management office won’t be able to verify your scores, making it impossible to continue the exams. I recommend first contacting your original driving school instructor or the local vehicle management office to inquire about the specific process, such as filling out an application form and bringing documents like your ID card. The process might take a few days to complete. Don’t worry too much about the paperwork—it may seem tedious, but it’s necessary to avoid wasted trips. Preparing in advance is always a good idea, as it saves time and prevents last-minute issues on exam day. Additionally, policies vary slightly by province, so it’s best to check local regulations online or call customer service for reliable information.
