The age requirement for applying for an A1 driver's license is between 26 and 50 years old. Other conditions are as follows: Height must be at least 155 cm; visual acuity must be at least 5.0 on the logarithmic visual acuity chart (either naked or corrected vision); no red-green color blindness; ability to distinguish the direction of sound sources with each ear at 50 cm from a tuning fork; both thumbs must be intact, and each hand must have at least three other intact fingers with normal limb and finger movement functions; both lower limbs must be intact with normal movement functions, with no more than 5 cm difference in length, and no movement dysfunction. A1 licenses can only be obtained through license upgrades and cannot be applied for initially like C1 or B2 licenses. Starting from the most common C1 license, you must first upgrade to A3, B1, or B2 before upgrading to A1. You must have held an A3, B1, or B2 license for at least five years and have no record of accumulating 12 penalty points in the current scoring cycle or the last five consecutive scoring cycles to upgrade to A1. If upgrading from A3, B1, or B2 to A2 and then to A1, the requirements are: holding an A2 license for at least two years and having no record of accumulating 12 penalty points in the previous scoring cycle. According to Article 12 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," applicants must meet the following requirements: For small cars, small automatic transmission cars, small automatic transmission passenger cars for the disabled, or light motorcycles, the age requirement is between 18 and 70 years old. For low-speed trucks, three-wheeled cars, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, or wheeled self-propelled machinery, the age requirement is between 18 and 60 years old. For city buses, large trucks, trolleybuses, or trams, the age requirement is between 20 and 50 years old. For medium-sized buses, the age requirement is between 21 and 50 years old. For tractors, the age requirement is between 24 and 50 years old. For students undergoing full-time driving vocational education applying for large buses or tractors, the age requirement is between 20 and 50 years old. A1 license permits driving the following vehicle types: large buses with more than 20 passengers, as well as passenger vehicles with a body length exceeding 6 meters. Other permitted vehicle types include: A3 (city buses), B1 (medium-sized buses), B2 (large trucks), C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled cars), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery).
