Here are the materials required for renewing a driver's license: 1. Application form: Fill out the 'Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form' as required. 2. Relevant certificates: Original 'Motor Vehicle Driver's Physical Condition Certificate' issued by a medical institution at or above the county level designated by the Beijing Municipal Health Bureau, or by a medical institution at or above the regimental level designated by the military or armed police forces; for holders of a driver's license for small automatic transmission passenger vehicles for the disabled, the original 'Motor Vehicle Driver's Physical Condition Certificate' issued by a specialized medical institution designated by the Beijing Municipal Health Bureau must be submitted. 3. ID card: Original and photocopy of the applicant's identity document; if handled by an agent, the original and photocopy of the agent's identity document must also be submitted. 4. Driver's license: Original motor vehicle driver's license. 5. Photos: Three photos of the motor vehicle driver (photo requirements: front-facing, full-color, bareheaded, straight-edged, half-length ID photo of the applicant taken within 6 months prior to applying for the motor vehicle driver's license. The background color should be white; no uniforms should be worn; the portrait should be clear, with rich layers, natural expression, and no obvious distortion. The photo size should be 32mm × 22mm, equivalent to 1 inch, with a head width of 14mm–16mm and a head length of 19mm–22mm).
When I renewed my driver's license myself, I was most afraid of going back and forth due to incomplete materials. You must bring the original ID card and a copy, as well as the original old driver's license that is about to expire. First, go to a designated hospital for a physical examination, mainly testing vision and color discrimination, and you can get the form on the same day. Also, prepare three one-inch white background photos, wearing dark-colored clothes to stand out. At the vehicle management office, you need to fill out an application form. If you have a non-local household registration, don't forget to bring your residence permit. I spent ten yuan for the processing fee and got it done. It's recommended to make an appointment in advance on the 12123 APP, directly uploading the physical examination information and electronic photos, which can save half a day. In some cities, you can also handle it at the post office with the same materials.
Buddy, I had to make three trips to renew my driver's license recently – a painful lesson! Must-bring items: Bring at least two photocopies of your ID card, and you'll need to surrender your old license. The key document is the medical examination form from the hospital, mainly checking if your vision meets standards – failing the color blindness test would be troublesome. Bring three white-background photos, and avoid wearing light-colored clothes. For those applying in a different location, remember to bring the original residence permit. The DMV office has sample forms to reference when filling out the application. The processing fee is about ten yuan in cash. Strongly recommend calling to confirm local requirements beforehand – some smaller locations might even change their designated medical checkup hospitals. Photo requirements are strict – my friend's retouched selfie got rejected and had to be retaken.
