What documents are needed for driving school registration?
2 Answers
Documents required for driving school registration: 1. Original ID card and photocopy: The photocopy generally requires both sides to be copied on one sheet of paper. It is best to prepare this in advance. 2. Photocopy of household registration (hukou) book: For non-local residents, a residence permit (temporary residence permit) is also required. 3. Photos: Typically, 8 recent 1-inch full-color passport photos with a white background, showing a front-facing, bareheaded half-length portrait. These must meet specified requirements or they will not be accepted. 4. Medical examination form: A medical examination form is also required before registration. You can bring the form yourself for the examination. The form must be issued by a county-level or higher medical institution or a military medical institution at or above the regiment level (or you may undergo a unified medical examination arranged by the driving school). 6. Application form: Original copy of the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form." Generally, the driving school will fill it out on your behalf or require you to complete it on-site during registration.
Having worked at a driving school for many years, I can tell you that the common enrollment materials include the original ID card and several one-inch or two-inch color photos, preferably with a solid-colored background. The medical check-up is usually done at the hospital partnered with the driving school. Prepare a few dozen yuan for the examination fee, and the vision and hearing tests are quick to complete. You can pay the enrollment fee in cash or via QR code. Bringing a black pen to fill out forms saves time. Don’t forget to make a copy of your ID card as a backup, as some places require it. It’s a good idea to call ahead to confirm the driving school’s address and reception hours to avoid a wasted trip. This way, the whole process goes smoothly, and safe driving starts with preparation. Remember to wear comfortable shoes so your feet won’t get tired from waiting.
