The paperwork

This is what you need to bring here

For the translations it may be helpful to bring a friend. Some of the police speak very good English but some not so much.

The photocopies you may need you can get at the post office very close to the 'Motor Vehicle Service Station'. The staff here is very helpful and friendly.

Return

First Aid Station

Health check

The First Aid station is one floor up, on the second floor towards the left side of the terminal.

You will be handed out a form (click to download .pdf) on which the results of the health check will be documented. The check consists mainly of an eye test. The cost is RMB 10.

Return

The license

When all paperwork is finished and after paying another RMB 10 you will be the proud owner of a temporary Chinese drivers license. It is valid for the duration of your visa, 30 days for me.

It is advisable to keep the copies if you intend to do this again another time, it saves a lot of work.

Drive carefully! Let me know if this was helpful to you
