The reissuance and renewal of a driver's license can be processed either at the place of issuance or the place of residence. Below are the specific details regarding the reissuance of a driver's license: 1. Reissuance Methods: You can also apply for a replacement license at a vehicle management office other than the place where the license was originally issued. According to the newly revised "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" implemented on April 1, 2016, if a motor vehicle driver's license is lost, the driver should apply for a replacement at the vehicle management office where the license was issued or at any other vehicle management office. 2. Materials required for applying for a replacement license outside the place of issuance: (1) A duly completed "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form". (2) The original and a copy of the identity proof of the motor vehicle driver. If applying through an agent, the original and a copy of the agent's identity proof must also be submitted.
Oh, I was so worried when I lost my driver's license last time! I thought I'd have to go back to the vehicle management office in my hometown to get a replacement, but after calling 12323, I found out it can now be done nationwide. I just took my ID card to the nearby vehicle management office in my neighborhood, filled out a replacement application form, and had my photo taken on the spot. The staff also reminded me to clear any traffic violations before processing it—luckily, I usually drive pretty carefully. The whole process took just half an hour, and the fee was only ten yuan. Government services are really convenient these days. No more traveling long distances to the issuing location—it’s so much easier for us ordinary folks to get things done now.
