What is the online process for driver's license renewal?
2 Answers
Online services are only for appointment scheduling; actual processing still requires visiting the vehicle management office. You can apply for license renewal within 90 days before its expiration. Replacement of lost driver's license or renewal of expired driver's license. The online vehicle management office services mentioned above are only applicable to applicants who hold second-generation resident ID cards and have passed electronic identity authentication.
I recently renewed my driver's license on my phone, and the process was quite simple. First, download the 12123 APP and register/login, remembering to use your own phone number for real-name verification. On the homepage, click 'Driver's License Replacement/Renewal,' and it will automatically detect and remind you if your license is about to expire. For a renewal due to expiration, you'll need to upload a new photo—preferably a recent white-background ID photo, as incorrect dimensions will result in rejection. Then, follow the prompts to fill in your personal information and delivery address, and choose between an online medical check or a hospital check-up. It's advisable to book a medical check-up in advance to save time. After completing all the documents, pay the processing and courier fees online, and just wait for the new license to be delivered to your home. Now, everything is confirmed with an electronic signature, eliminating the need to queue at the DMV, which is indeed convenient.
