I'm quite experienced in handling the Beijing Entry Permit. As a frequent driver, my experience tells me to bring all the basic documents: the original and photocopy of my ID card, the original and photocopy of my driver's license, as well as the original and photocopy of the vehicle registration certificate. The originals are for verification at the counter, while the photocopies are for submission. According to Beijing's new regulations, the environmental inspection certificate is crucial—make sure your vehicle passes the emissions test by bringing either the annual inspection slip or the environmental label. Booking online in advance can save a lot of time; I usually use the official app to get it done. Don’t forget to bring a mobile payment tool, as some locations accept cash, so it’s good to have some change on hand. Incomplete documents might lead to rejection, so I recommend keeping an extra set of photocopies in the car just in case. Safety first—don’t waste a trip by being unprepared. If everything goes smoothly, the whole process takes about 10 minutes. For new drivers, my advice is: don’t stress, just be well-prepared and you’ll be fine.

When I first applied for the Beijing Entry Permit, I was quite confused. It wasn't until I asked a friend that I learned I only needed to bring my ID card, driver's license, and vehicle registration certificate, with one set of originals and copies each. The on-site inspection is thorough, so it's recommended to prepare the copies in advance to save time. I downloaded the material checklist from the app, and don't forget to check the vehicle's violation records, otherwise the application won't go through. Bringing a phone for mobile payment makes fee payment convenient, and it's best to check the latest environmental requirements. Having the insurance policy on hand is also a good idea. The queues can be frustrating when crowded, so choosing to go in the morning when it's less busy is advisable. Overall, having genuine and valid documents is key. It's not as complicated as it seems, and simple preparations ensure a smooth process.

When traveling with family, handling documents is not difficult, just focus on bringing the car owner's documents: original and photocopies of ID card, driver's license, and vehicle registration certificate. Children may get impatient, so prepare photocopies in advance for quick processing. Pay attention to environmental requirements, and bring the inspection certificate if the vehicle's annual inspection is not expired. Don't forget to bring some water and snacks as there might be a crowd on-site. Ensure all documents are complete for a smooth process.
