Where to Replace a Driving License with Full Stamp Pages?
2 Answers
When the endorsement pages of your driving license are full, you can go to the Vehicle Management Office, Traffic Police Branch, or District (City) County Traffic Police Brigade to take a number and submit the following documents at the acceptance window: 1. Replacement Application Form: Fill out the 'Application for Replacement or Reissuance of Motor Vehicle License Plates and Certificates' (company vehicles require the authorized person's signature, while private vehicles require the owner's signature). 2. Original and Copy of ID Card: The original and a copy of the vehicle owner's identity proof. 3. Driving License: For replacement, you must also provide the original driving license. 4. Vehicle Identification Number and Engine Number: The vehicle identification number (VIN) and engine number rubbing. 5. Agent's Identity Proof and Power of Attorney: For vehicle registration by an agent, you must also provide the agent's identity proof and the original legally binding written power of attorney issued by the vehicle owner.
When my driving license ran out of stamp space, my recent visit to the local DMV for a replacement went incredibly smoothly. As a new car owner who just purchased a vehicle over a year ago, the stamps filled up quickly due to annual inspections. I pre-booked an appointment using the Traffic Management 12123 app, brought my ID card, original vehicle registration certificate, and old driving license to the office. After inspection, the DMV staff issued me a new license on the spot—it only cost a 50-yuan processing fee and took 20 minutes. Many locations now support online processing, eliminating queue hassles. Forgetting documents might require an extra trip, so I recommend using an app to manage vehicle information and regularly checking your driving license’s stamp space to avoid driving disruptions. Overall, the service was fast and convenient, making driving much more worry-free.
