Because the domestic driver's license examination is becoming more and more difficult, and it takes a long time and the application fee is high, many people choose to apply for a driver's license abroad. Let's take a look at the latest situation of Korean driving test.
China's driving test is too strict and takes too long. Many people find another way to get a driver's license abroad or in Hong Kong and Macao, and then turn back to the mainland to drive. Although it was not reliable to go to Korea to test the driver's license before, there are actually various agents to go to Korea to test the driver's license now. When searching Taobao, all kinds of quotation trips are very rich. Is it really convenient? What are the risks? With the rise of going abroad to go on road trip, applying for an international driver's license has become a topic of concern to motorists.
The "curve" exam was successful.
Mr. Wu, a 29-year-old from Wuhan, simply chose to go to Korea for textual research after failing in the second domestic subject examination. In May this year, he spent 4,500 yuan on a business trip to Incheon, South Korea, and got a Korean driver's license in just five days. On June 17, Mr. Wu successfully passed the confirmation of Wuhan traffic control department and transferred his driver's license back to Wuhan, becoming the first person to go to Korea to get his driver's license. Teacher Wu's case has made many examiners who are deeply mired in China's "exam difficulties" seem to see the "gospel".
Prior to this, tens of thousands of people were bombed two years ago because they were "easy to verify". They used the opportunity of business trip or work to fly to South Korea to get a "returnee driver's license", and then changed to a domestic driver's license and a "curve" driver's license. Although the South Korean side has previously clarified that it is difficult for foreigners to register without a "landing permit", it is not only Mr. Wu's successful case, including the "Korean driver's license business" launched online, but also many people in China continue to do so. The reporter found that in addition to South Korea, there are many intermediaries in Guangdong Province that provide driving test services in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.
South Korea: quietly popular.
After logging in to some well-known e-commerce websites for search, you can still find many words such as "Seoul driving test" and "Jeju Island driving test for 5 days". The quotation is not cheap, it is more than 10 thousand yuan, but it is only a "package" including itinerary and exam photos. Of course, because South Korea has relaxed visa conditions for China, it is easy to go to South Korea, especially Jeju Island, so it is very attractive to go to South Korea to get a driver's license.
As an applicant, the reporter tried to call a businessman who arranged to go to Jeju Island to get a driver's license. The agent swears: basically, several domestic test groups go to South Korea every month, and the latest one just left on June 15. China people not only don't need a visa, but also can fly directly to Jeju Island, which is very convenient. According to what they call "driving license sightseeing" tour, as long as the tour fee is paid, then "accommodation+meal fee+shuttle bus+exam+all-inclusive tuition fee", the reporter found that the tour fee for the exam sightseeing tour ranges from 6000- 12000, and the specific fee refers to different itinerary and accommodation conditions. Note that some quotations are only from 500 yuan or 1000 yuan, and they are only deposits. After the registration is confirmed, the merchant will give another payment account or pay the balance after going to Korea. They can arrange "group friends" to successfully apply for an international driver's license after obtaining a Korean driver's license. The agent interviewed told the reporter with great confidence: "If the propaganda is inconsistent with the reality, you can investigate the responsibility. This store has been in Taobao for several years and has a good reputation! "
It is reported that two ordinary Korean driver's licenses are equivalent to China's C 1. Take this as an example. After students arrive in Korea, they can have five hours of theoretical lessons and two hours of on-site skills learning on the first day or the second day, take theoretical and on-site skills tests on the second day, continue to study road driving for four hours on the third day, take the actual road driving test and issue driver's licenses on the fourth day, and complete the whole driving test process within three days, totaling 13 hours of study. In terms of fees, registration, physical examination, written examination, on-site skill examination and actual road test are 6000 won, 15000 won, 3000 won and 15000 won respectively. Moreover, the theory of Korean test only needs 60 points, and the third subject only needs 70 points to pass.
Xiao Li, who works in Korea and passed the local driver's license test, told reporters that although the process of the Korean driver's license test is simple and fast, the verification process is actually very strict, with special emphasis on the study of traffic laws. Xiao Li said: the Korean exam is actually not as simple as the intermediary said. When she took the exam last year, there were six or seven China students in the same group, three of whom failed in the actual road test. The main reason is that the technology is not skilled and the language is not good (the intermediary said that Chinese or English translators can be brought now, and there are Chinese papers in the theoretical exam). Therefore, although it takes a short time to take a driver's license test in Korea, it is also common to take a make-up test.
Applicable people: China people who travel to and from Korea frequently, with high cost performance and convenience. At the same time, according to the regulations of the Korean police, foreigners must provide Korean landing cards when registering, and they can only get them after staying in South Korea for 90 days. Although some intermediaries promise to deal with it, they are at their own risk.

Is it easy to transfer domestic driver's license?
For the Korean driver's license to be transferred back to China, the intermediary's answer is even more refreshing: Dear, just take the Korean driver's license issued by Korea, go back to the local notary office for translation and notarization, and take this certificate and the original to the local vehicle management office to apply for a replacement. You need to pass the first theory of Chinese subject to successfully replace it. Moreover, applying for an international driver's license in Korea will not be cancelled, and you will continue to use this international driver's license when you need to travel abroad and drive.
However, the reporter learned from the vehicle management department that the current Korean driver's license is "tight". At present, vehicle management offices all over the country are very strict with this requirement, and some cities do not transfer domestic driver's licenses. For example, Shanghai will not turn for the time being, and neither will Guangzhou. Therefore, the risk is great, and the examiner should think twice before acting.
Hong Kong Examination: Only suitable for "Hong Kong drift". Hong Kong driver's license is not as easy as Korean driver's license, but the main reason for attracting mainlanders is the convenience of renewing international driver's license. To learn driving in the mainland, you must have a household registration book or a temporary residence permit to register, otherwise you will have to go back to your hometown to study. In this way, some people who work outside will find it extremely troublesome, and the total cost of learning to drive once a week is even more amazing. If the pass rate is not high, it will delay the time to get the certificate. To this end, Mr. Liu, who lives in Guangzhou and works in Hong Kong, thought of a "shortcut" to Hong Kong for textual research.
According to the current regulations, if you mainly have a Hong Kong identity card and proof of address, you can sign up for a driving course in the Hong Kong Transport Department, and you can get a temporary driver's license in Hong Kong in 4 to 6 months. The cost ranges from 6000 yuan to 1000 yuan. If there is no violation within one year, you can get a full driver's license. Actually, the driving test in Hongkong is very strict, but the time is shorter than that in China. First, you have to pass the written test and the road test. However, when taking the road test, you can find a private tutor and learn to drive freely. When you register with the transportation department, you will get a booklet with a list of all the owners. You can make your own appointment with the master according to the examination time. Mr. Liu believes that learning to drive in Hong Kong is cheaper than that in the Mainland, the conditions for learning to drive are much better, the relationship between teachers and students is much normal, and the skills for learning to drive are much better. However, we should also pay attention to the high cost of make-up exams in Hong Kong. Looking for a coach again, one hour of "manual labor" costs 200 Hong Kong dollars, and you have to pay the coach a car rental fee. You must practice for at least six hours before you can take the exam again. At present, Mr. Liu registered in mid-March, passed the written test on May 3 and took the road test at the end of July.
The reporter was informed that some intermediaries used the "empty" regulations of the Hong Kong Transport Department to claim that at present, only Hong Kong and Macao passes or passports are needed, and mainland residents can also apply for Hong Kong passports. In fact, this is not reliable, because the Hong Kong Transport Department only accepts applications from Hong Kong residents and foreigners or foreigners who have worked and studied in Hong Kong for a long time.
Applicable people: "Hong Kong vagrants" who work or study in Hong Kong. Because these people have proof of identity in Hong Kong, it is easy for them to apply for a driving test in the Transport Department. Only ordinary transit passengers with mainland household registration can go to Hong Kong to apply for a Hong Kong driver's license after obtaining a mainland driver's license.

How to change the driver's license between the two places?
Hong Kong driver's license is more convenient for Guangdong residents, because according to the new regulations reached by Guangdong and Hong Kong transportation departments in the 1 9th round of Guangdong-Hong Kong cross-border vehicle technical talks, Guangdong residents can apply for a new Hong Kong driver's license with the mainland motor vehicle driver's license from 65438+ 10/2004. Residents of Guangdong Province who hold a Class C small car driver's license or above can directly apply for a Hong Kong driver's license without examination. The information is only to provide passport, valid mainland driver's license and ID card, and go to the registration office to fill out the application form. If the information is complete, it can be completed in less than an hour. Then you can get an international driver's license. The price is less than 1000 Hong Kong dollars. To apply for an international driver's license, you only need to use a copy of your official Hong Kong driver's license and passport. However, if you are a "trainee" outside Guangdong Province, it will be more troublesome to transfer your Hong Kong driver's license to a mainland driver's license, and it will cost thousands of RMB through an agent.
The reporter noted that at present, not only the driver's license business in South Korea and Hong Kong is booming, but also some intermediaries have expanded their business to Southeast Asia. A broker who opened up the business of China people going to the Philippines to take a driver's license test claimed: "The wind is tight in South Korea, and the Philippines is the most convenient and worry-free." Moreover, the intermediary helps to make an appointment for the Philippine driver's license exam, and accompanies him to take the local exam in the Philippines to ensure that he passes. All expenses include: visa, round-trip air ticket and accommodation. It is reported that it only takes four or five days to get a driver's license in the Philippines, and you can take photos after the exam on the same day. The agent said that the driver's license was obtained directly from LTO (Manila Transportation Bureau, Philippines), which can guarantee the authenticity, and the authenticity can also be verified by the telephone of the local transportation bureau. After returning home, you can apply for a replacement at the local vehicle management office. You need to bring your ID card, passport, driver's license and driver's license translation. The vehicle management office will arrange the exam of subject one and change your China driver's license.
The traffic police department is cautious about this "secret but hot" overseas exam fever: learning driving skills is related to personal driving safety and others. It is not recommended to study blindly for quick success and instant benefit, or you will eventually harm others and yourself. At the same time, the reporter learned from the local vehicle management office that the vehicle management department has a strict review mechanism for applicants who transfer their foreign driver's licenses to domestic driver's licenses, especially those who go abroad to take the driver's license test as tourists, and the driver's license test period should be compared with the entry and exit period. Once you find fraud, you can't get through.

The latest situation of Korean driver's license test, warm reminder:
Be careful when applying for an international driver's license
With the popularity of outbound and self-help tours, many "car owners" want to have an internationally accepted driver's license. Tip: If someone claims that they can give you an international driver's license to use with your domestic driver's license, it must be false. Because China has not acceded to the United Nations Convention on Road Traffic, there is no official agency in Chinese mainland to issue international driver's licenses, which is also the root cause of the current international driver's license dispute in China. Except Hong Kong and Macao Special Administrative Regions, the United Nations Convention on Road Traffic still applies. Therefore, for example, using an "international driver's license" plus a "Hong Kong driver's license" can be used in countries (regions) of the United Nations Convention on Road Traffic.

Guangzhou driving school
Pass rate increased
Problems such as the backlog of driver's license examinations and the passing rate of subjects 3, which are of great concern to the public, have been obviously alleviated recently. Guangzhou Traffic Police Detachment Vehicle Management Office said: Recently, the backlog of students in driving schools has dropped from 87,000 at the beginning of last year to about 20,000 at present. After a period of adaptation, the passing rate of driving test subjects in these two days rose to 45%.
The traffic police department of Guangzhou said that at present, human factors have been excluded from the driving test in Guangzhou, and the driving test work in the city is unified and standardized, and the whole process of driving test is electronic, making the driving test more objective and fair; In addition, the traffic police department also eased the backlog of driving tests by improving the test ability and the quality of driving training. At the same time, with the improvement of students' familiarity with electronic examiners, the passing rate of subject three driving test has also gradually increased. On the first day of April 15, the electronic examiners were full, and the pass rate of subject 3 was only 12.76%. Half a month later, on April 29th, the passing rate of driving test in Subject III has risen to 30%, while last week-June 15 and June 16, the passing rate of driving test in Subject III has exceeded 45%, which is equivalent to the passing rate of previous manual tests.
In addition, with the traffic police department in Guangzhou vigorously promoting the online appointment test, the city has conducted about 1.99 million person-times, and more than 98% of the students have made an appointment for the test through the online vehicle management office, making the driving test more convenient and fair.
