Regarding the specific requirements for private cars to operate on Didi, the details are as follows: 1. Requirements for private car owners driving for Didi. If the vehicle is privately owned, the owner must obtain the 'Online Car-hailing Driver's License' and clearly specify engagement in online car-hailing services. The vehicle cannot be subleased or subcontracted to others for online car-hailing operations. Additionally, the 'Online Car-hailing Driver's License' issued by the road transport management authority is valid for 6 years. 2. Conditions for driving for Didi. The owner must possess a C1 or higher driver's license with at least 3 years of driving experience. Male owners must be between 22 and 55 years old, while female owners must be between 22 and 50 years old. Furthermore, the registered vehicle must be less than 8 years old.
I also considered driving for Didi to earn some extra money before, but found there are quite a few rules. First, you need to obtain a ride-hailing driver's license, which requires passing an exam at the local transportation department on policies, regulations, service standards, etc. Only after passing can you get the license. Then, the vehicle also needs a ride-hailing transport permit. The car must be no older than 8 years, meet emission standards, and you have to apply at the licensing authority to get a small plate. Before applying, make sure the vehicle's insurance is complete, otherwise the platform won't allow registration. It's recommended to go through official channels and avoid cheap black-market agents. Cost-wise, the exam might be a few hundred yuan, and the license fees around one or two hundred. It takes some time but is worth it. If you're short on time, you might want to contact Didi customer service first to check the specific local requirements, as they can vary by region.
