Prepare your ID card for receipt. Below are specific details about the driver's license: 1. Classification: The Ministry of Public Security officially issued the "Regulations on the Business of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," introducing a grading system for motor vehicle driver's licenses, which divides them into 15 levels: A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, C1, C2, C3, C4, D, E, F, M, N, P. 2. Renewal regulations: If a motor vehicle driver has not accumulated 12 points in any scoring period during the six-year validity period of the driver's license, they will be issued a driver's license with a ten-year validity period. If they have not accumulated 12 points in any scoring period during the ten-year validity period, they will be issued a long-term valid driver's license. 3. Content: The motor vehicle driver's license records the holder's ID number, name, gender, date of birth, permanent address, nationality, permitted (learned) vehicle type code, initial issuance date, validity period, and management records, along with the issuing authority's seal, file number, and the holder's photo. The design of the motor vehicle driver's license is specified by the Ministry of Public Security.
When I received my new driver's license, I first checked if the information on it was correct, such as my name, address, and the validity period, to ensure there were no printing errors. Then, I prepared the original and a copy of my ID card, as staff at the vehicle management office or insurance companies would verify my identity when registering a vehicle or purchasing insurance later. I also made copies of the driver's license itself—one to keep in the car and another at home—in case of loss or emergencies. Additionally, I brought a pen and a few one-inch photos, although they might not always be needed, as updating information sometimes requires additional photos. The whole process was quite straightforward, but it's important not to be careless. A driver's license is an important document, so store it properly as soon as you receive it and avoid leaving it in the car, where it could be stolen and misused. It's also a good idea to familiarize yourself with any recent changes in local traffic regulations, such as newly implemented driving rules, to ensure safer driving on the road.
