What to Do When the Driver's License Exceeds the Renewal Deadline?
1 Answers
Driver's license can be normally renewed within one year after its expiration. If it exceeds one year but less than two years, the license will be locked, and the holder needs to retake one subject to restore it. The renewal application should be submitted within 90 days before the expiration date. Documents required for renewal: ID card, driver's license, a driver's medical examination form from a county or district-level hospital, two one-inch white background photos, and one copy of the ID card. Driving with an expired license is considered as driving without a license or treated as such, and the driver may be fined between 200 and 2,000 yuan and may also face detention for up to 15 days. In case of serious traffic accidents causing casualties, criminal liability will be pursued according to the law.
