Regarding this content, the Traffic Police Department instructs that people who need to issue or renew their driver's license online should access the National Public Service Portal. Here, people can log in via their VNEID account.

Then select the service “Change driving license”. People choose the receiving agency, the reason for changing the driving license and then look up the information of the issued driving license using the driving license number.

Next, people check their personal information and driver's license, then look up their health information using the health certificate code or citizen identification number, then view their health details. Then, see the instructions and upload a portrait photo.

The next step is to attach the application components according to the instructions, check the contact information again. Then commit the information and click continue. People need to choose the form of receiving results, check the recipient information and enter the address to receive the results.
