What is the maximum number of days for renewing a driver's license?

Driver's license renewal should normally be completed within 90 days. If the license has expired for less than one year, it can still be renewed normally without being canceled. Documents required for driver's license renewal: Original driver's license of the applicant; ID card and a copy of the applicant; Physical examination certificate issued by a county-level or above medical institution or military medical institution; Three one-inch personal photos of the applicant. Go to the vehicle management office to fill out the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form" and submit it along with the above documents to the relevant window of the vehicle management office for processing. Related services of the vehicle management office: The vehicle management office is mainly responsible for handling motor vehicle registration, modification, transfer, mortgage, and cancellation, as well as applications for driver's licenses, replacements, renewals, verifications, and other services related to motor vehicles and drivers.
You can delay renewing your driver's license for a few days at most. As someone who drives frequently, I've gone through the renewal process several times. Generally, under normal circumstances, it takes one or two days to complete. For example, submitting the required materials at the vehicle management office might get you the new license on the same day if you're lucky. However, if it's crowded or you're missing some documents, it could take an extra day or two, but it should never exceed a week at the very most. To ensure efficiency, bring your ID card, old driver's license, photos, and medical examination report when preparing your materials. I've seen people forget their medical exam and have to rush to the hospital, wasting an extra day. It's best not to wait until your license expires—handle it a month in advance for peace of mind and safety, and to avoid potential fines. Remember, driving with an expired license is illegal. Always drive with a valid license to ensure your safety and that of others.
