Da Nang: From March 1st, plastic driving licenses will be issued and exchanged.
On the morning of February 18, the Department of Transport of Da Nang announced that, in order to implement the policy of improving the management of driving licenses nationwide, from March 1, 2014, Da Nang will issue new driving licenses to people.
Accordingly, all old driving licenses (paper - PV) will be changed by the Danang Department of Transport to PET plastic driving licenses using modern security technology. Specifically: The issuance of all types of car driving licenses for all subjects in the area will be completed before December 31, 2014; the issuance of A4 driving licenses will be completed before December 31, 2015 and the issuance of unlimited driving licenses for classes A1, A2, A3 will be continuously until the end of 2020.
On the same morning, Mr. Tran Van Thien - Head of Training and Testing Management Department, Da Nang Department of Transport - said: "After a period of training and testing, Da Nang can now completely carry out the work of issuing new driver's licenses to people.
Individuals who need to issue or exchange their cards should go to the One-Stop Department, Danang Department of Transport - No. 140 Hai Phong, Danang City to complete the issuance and exchange procedures according to regulations.
The new driving license is made using the world's new security technology, so it will limit the situation of counterfeiting driving licenses as in the recent past.
Especially in recent times, each locality has managed the issuance of driving licenses differently, so integrating information management into a single system will help better manage vehicle drivers and contribute to limiting traffic accidents like in the past.
"However, due to limited printer capacity and dependence on transmission lines, Da Nang has recently piloted the issuance and renewal of new driver's licenses with a capacity of 200-300 cases per day.
The issuance and exchange will take place normally with a waiting time of 3-5 days as prescribed, ensuring to meet the timely issuance and exchange needs of the people. In addition, with this issuance and exchange, people with driving licenses issued by other localities can also come to the office to apply for an exchange and vice versa," Mr. Thien added.
