Personal Photos Required for Driver's Licenses

Write: Barretta [2011-05-20]

Guangzhou traffic police announced recently that as of April 1, residents applying for a driver's license are required to produce a copy of "the Guangdong Conformation Sheet for Collection of Digital Photographs of Applicants for Driver's License".

Applicants are required to have their personal photographs taken at a photo studio equipped with ID-card photograph transmission system, which will transmit the applicants' digital photos to the information system for driver's licenses. This particular system will make it easier to confirm the applicants' identity when they are applying for a driver's license.

Beginning on April 1, residents applying for a driver's license are required to have their personal photographs taken at a certified photo studio and produce a copy of "the Guangdong Conformation Sheet for Collection of Digital Photographs of Applicants for Driver's License".

For more information, call the traffic administration agency at 020-87220001.
