In reply to Nazir. No, unfortunately having a driver's license in China doesn't open up more job opportunities (at least from my experience).

-Not sure if this driver license used as and ID card for identification when it’s necessary to show up ?!
-Any opportunities when having a full license ? Like facilities in job working and so on ,I mean related to chinese rules ?

In reply to mac. I'm not 100% sure. My guess would be that you get your license revoked, since there's not much more they can do.

In reply to Yvonne. You should, but why not just apply for a full driver's license instead?

Hi Josh ! Thanks for the very informative Blog. I live in china since about 20 years, and I last time renewed my full driver’s license (C1) in 2004, valid for 16 years ! So I Now must renew it again. Do you know if there is any age limit ?… 😂

Thanks !

If one has A C1 Driver’s licence, is there an age limit to use it / prevent its renewal ?

Thank You !

In reply to Lavi. Yikes...I'm so sorry! You can go speak with the local police, but more than likely they'll tell you that you need to wait until the end of the year to get your license back.
