What is the latest number of days for driver's license annual review?

Driver's license annual review must be completed within the specified time and cannot be postponed. The relevant content about driver's license is introduced as follows: Procedure for delayed renewal: The delayed renewal period for motor vehicle driver's license is three years. When applying, you need to apply to the vehicle management office at the place where the driver's license was issued. During the application, you need to fill out an application form and provide the motor vehicle driver's ID card, driver's license, and proof of delay. Notes for renewal: If the renewal is overdue, corresponding penalties will be imposed based on the length of the overdue period; if the overdue period is within one year, the driver's license will be in an invalid state and cannot be used for driving, but you can still renew it normally at the vehicle management office; if the overdue period is between 1 to 3 years, the driver's license will be in a revoked state, and you need to retake the subject one exam to renew it normally; if the overdue period exceeds three years, the driver's license will be forcibly invalidated.
I've been driving for almost twenty years, so I'm quite familiar with the driver's license renewal process. According to regulations, you must apply for a renewal at least 90 days before your license expires. If you delay too long, it gets complicated: if it's over one year but less than three years, you'll have to retake the written test (Subject 1) to renew; if it exceeds three years, your license will be directly invalidated and revoked. I once saw my neighbor Lao Wang almost miss the deadline—he was too busy with work to check the date and ended up spending extra money and time retaking the test. So, I suggest everyone plan ahead—don't wait until the last few days. Give yourself some leeway and visit the DMV on a weekday to avoid penalties if caught driving with an expired license.
