What is the difference between replacement due to damage and replacement due to expiration?
1 Answers
Replacement due to damage and replacement due to expiration have the following differences: processing time and requirements. Replacement due to damage refers to applying for a new driver's license when the original one is damaged and unreadable. Replacement due to expiration refers to renewing the driver's license when it reaches its expiration date. Below are the detailed explanations: Differences in processing: Different processing times: For a driver's license that is about to expire, the replacement can be done up to 90 days in advance to avoid expiration. For a damaged driver's license, it must be replaced promptly. Different requirements: Before renewing an expired license, one must check for any traffic violations, which must be resolved first. This requirement does not apply to replacement due to damage. Processing methods: Many services at the vehicle management office can now be handled independently, including the renewal of an expired driver's license. You can go to the self-service area of the vehicle management office and follow the instructions to complete the process. The second method is to log in to the 12123 app, select "Driver's License Replacement and Renewal," and then follow the corresponding options step by step.
