2 Answers
Nantong driver's license renewal is processed at the Nantong Vehicle Management Office, located at No. 169 Qingnian Middle Road, Chongchuan District, Nantong City. The following are important notes regarding license renewal: 1. Required documents: The driver's identity proof and current driver's license; a medical fitness certificate issued by a county-level or military regimental-level medical institution. 2. Driving during renewal period: If you continue to drive on public roads after your license has expired or been revoked without renewal, traffic authorities may impose fines based on the severity of the violation, or even administrative detention for up to 15 days. In cases involving serious accidents with casualties, criminal liability may be pursued according to law.
Last year, I renewed my driver's license in Nantong, and the whole process went quite smoothly. Initially, I went to the Vehicle Management Office of the Nantong Traffic Police Brigade, located on Gongnong North Road in Chongchuan District, which is easy to find with a bus stop nearby. Before going, remember to bring your old driver's license, original and photocopy of your ID card, and a recent medical examination report. Upon arrival, first queue to get a number, then go to the service window to submit your materials. The staff will guide you through the process. It's advisable to prepare color photos in advance to avoid long queues for on-site photography. The entire process took about an hour, and the cost wasn't high. I recommend going early to avoid the crowds during peak hours. After renewing the license, driving feels more assured, but don't forget to check the validity period. In Nantong city, besides the main Vehicle Management Office, some branch offices can also handle the renewal, but the main station offers the most comprehensive services.
