If you need to reissue your driver’s license due to loss of your driver’s license or damage to your driver’s license, you can apply for it online, visit the Korea Expressway Traffic Safety Corporation, and visit the driver’s license test center.I’ll tell you in detail about the preparations, application methods, and reissuance costs required for the reissuance of the driver’s license.
How to Reissue a Driver’s License
How to Reissue a Driver’s License
As mentioned earlier, there are two ways to reissue a driver’s license.This is the first offline method, and you can visit the nearest police station or driver’s license test center in person.Before you visit, you can be familiar with the preparations in advance and get them issued immediately after receiving an application for reissuance.Then, I will explain in detail how to reissue a driver’s license.
How to reissue a driver’s license (in person)
1. Visit a nearby police station or driver’s license test site to reissue your driver’s license.
2. ID card (resident registration card, passport, student certificate, national technical certificate), ID photo 3.5cm*4.5cm
3. Upon receipt or application of an agent, the applicant and his/her ID card and power of attorney shall be accompanied.
4. Report of loss and re-issuance of application
5. Submission of ID card, reissuance application form and photo
6. Payment of 8,000 KRW for reissuance of driver’s license
7.Reissue a driver’s license immediately after receipt
Regardless of the address of the applicant, you can go to the nearest police station or driver’s license test center.Operating hours are from 9:00 to 18:00 on weekdays.It can be issued on the same day.It is convenient to reissue it on the Internet considering the time and distance of travel by visiting the police station or driver’s license test site in person.Even if I apply for a reissue on the Internet, I have to receive it through a driver’s license test site or a police station anyway, so I visited and reissued it in person.
A nearby police station or driver’s license examination center is possible regardless of the applicant’s address.
Reissue time: Weekdays from 9am to 20pm
It can be issued on the same day and takes 2 weeks to apply to the police station.
In light of my experience, it is best to go directly to the driver’s license test center and get it reissued on the same day.If you go to the police station and apply, you have to go to the police station again two weeks after applying, so it takes twice the time.
preparations for reissuing a driver’s license
You need to prepare some supplies to reissue your driver’s license.An ID card, that is, a resident registration card, a passport, a certificate of enrollment, and a national technical certificate are essential.I also need a photo of my ID photo.The size is 3.5cm wide and 4.5cm long.If you need to apply for an agent, you must have the applicant’s ID card and power of attorney.The power of attorney can be downloaded through the Internet Safe Driving Integrated Civil Service website.

One ID photo is 3.5cm wide and 4.5cm long
Application for Agent (Agent ID card, power of attorney)
The issuance fee is 8,000 won in Korean and 10,000 won in English.
Online Application for Renewal of Driver’s License (Online)
You can apply for a driver’s license re-issuance through an integrated safe driving complaint.However, the issued driver’s license must be obtained directly from the police station or the driver’s license test center.So I didn’t know much about the advantages of online application methods.

report of loss of driver’s license
I have never thought about reporting a loss of my driver’s license.Recently, I lost my money clip while having a company dinner with the staff.When I woke up and looked for the money clip in the morning, there was no money clip, and when I contacted the company dinner place at lunch, I found that there was no missing item.I tried to report the loss of my driver’s license, which is my ID card, after contacting the credit card company on my cell phone and suspending my card, but I couldn’t think of any.

Even in college, I lost my driver’s license and went to the nearest driver’s license test site to report loss and reissue it a day, but recently, I tried to reissue it on the Internet, so I did it myself.
How to report a loss of a driver’s license
1.Report offline
2. Visiting a nearby police station or a driver’s license test site to report the loss.
3. Report the loss with a separate ID card (create an application form for reissuance)
4. It can be issued immediately through the reissuance of loss (loss report = reissuance)
If you reissue the lost driver’s license along with the report of the loss, you can get it issued as soon as you receive it.For the report of loss, after filling out the reissuance application form, submit an identification card (passport, resident registration card) that can prove yourself.The reissue fee is 7,500 won.If you report a loss of your driver’s license, your existing driver’s license will automatically take effect when you receive a reissue, so you don’t have to report a loss.
