What to Do If Driver's License Verification Expires?
1 Answers
If your driver's license verification has expired, you should promptly go to renew it. Required documents for renewal: 1. Original ID card and a copy. 2. Original driver's license. 3. Three recent 1-inch color photos with a white background. 4. Application form for motor vehicle driver's license (available at the processing location; if applying through a proxy, the proxy should fill it out). 5. Medical examination certificate (issued by a local county-level or higher medical institution, or a medical examination point at the vehicle management office). 6. For non-local residents, original and copy of local residence permit are also required. Consequences of not renewing an expired driver's license: 1. If the license has been expired for less than one year, as long as the holder renews it in time, there will be no issues. 2. If the license has been expired for more than one year but less than three years, the license is in a 'recoverable cancellation' status, and the holder must apply at the vehicle management office to take the subject one exam. The license can be retrieved only after passing the exam. 3. If the expiration exceeds three years or more, the license will be forcibly canceled, and the holder will have to re-enroll in a driving school and retake all exams to obtain a new license.
