Q:Can an electronic driving license be presented by showing its screenshot?

Q:Can the photo be changed?
A:Yes, you can change it, but there must be a 6-month interval between each change. To ensure the timeliness of the photo on the electronic driving license, when submitting an application for an electronic driving license by selecting a photo from the gallery, the photo in the gallery should have been taken within the past 6 months. Photos taken more than 6 months ago are not allowed to be submitted.

A:

Drivers need to reapply for an electronic driving license in the following 

situations:

① The class of vehicle the driver's license is qualified to drive changes (such as adding or downgrading qualifications).

② The validity period of the driver's license changes (such as renewal upon expiration).

③ The issuing authority of the driver's license changes (such as transfer and renewal).  

Note: Please remember to reapply for the electronic driving license after obtaining a replacement or renewed license.

Q:In what situations can an electronic driving license be used?
A:

When a driver presents an electronic driving license, the public security traffic management department will no longer check the paper driving license but will verify the driving license information online through law enforcement terminals.


  • When handling traffic management business

Drivers can present their electronic driving licenses to handle vehicle and driver management matters, such as traffic violation processing and traffic accident handling, without needing to submit a paper driving license. However, if there is a need to detain the driving license, the paper version must still be presented.


  • During insurance claims, vehicle rentals, and job recruitment

Drivers can present their electronic driving licenses, and relevant units can verify driving qualifications online.


Q:What should I do if the photo for the Wuhan electronic driving license fails the review?
