What is the difference between replacing a damaged driver's license and reissuing a lost one?
1 Answers
Replacing a damaged license refers to the act of renewing a license that has been damaged or partially destroyed. This is more common with driver's licenses, but vehicle licenses can also face similar issues. It is primarily compared to reissuing a lost license, which involves renewing a license that has already been lost. Therefore, there is a clear distinction between the two. Time regulations: If the license has expired for less than a year, it can be renewed normally; if it has expired for more than one year but less than three years, the license will be revoked, but it can be renewed by passing the first subject exam; if it has expired for more than three years, the license will become invalid and cannot be renewed. Renewal period: Motor vehicle drivers should apply for renewal at the vehicle management office of the original issuing authority within 90 days before the expiration of their driver's license. When applying, they must fill out the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form." Renewal materials: Bring two copies of ID card, two recent 1-inch color photos without hats, original ID card, original driver's license, and a medical examination certificate from a county-level or above hospital (free physical examinations are also available at the vehicle management office).
