Each driver in Russia should have a document that allows him to verify his identity and indicate the skills of driving a car. These are rights. Driving license is an extremely important paper. Without it, the driver will have serious problems. Today we will be interested in replacing an expired driver’s license. How to reissue a document? Is there any need to do this? What problems will a person face if he does not change his rights in time? Having learned the answers to all these questions, the driver will be able to thoroughly prepare for the mentioned operation. With the right approach to solving the problem, it will be possible to solve the problem as soon as possible.
Validity of the document
The procedure for replacing an expired driver’s license raises many questions among modern drivers. For example, some people wonder how often it is necessary to exchange rights "on time".
The answer directly depends on what kind of driving license a person has. Now they issue national and international laws.
In the first case, the document is issued for 10 years, in the second - for 3 years. After these intervals, a person will have to apply for new rights.
In addition, there are many reasons for the early exchange of high-tech. We will not consider them.
Delay Penalty
Suppose a citizen has delayed the replacement of a driver’s license for 1 year. What threatens for this act?
There is no direct penalty for late delays in the exchange of a driver’s license in Russia. A person can change them at any time after the expiration date. The main thing is that for the entire period of delay the driver becomes a pedestrian.
If a careless driver sits behind the wheel without a license or with an expired document, he faces a certain penalty. It is expressed as a penalty. The penalty for replacing an expired driver’s license, or rather, for driving a car without a w / c, is from 5 to 15 thousand rubles.
Replacement cost
But that's not all. The penalty for replacing an expired driver’s license in Russia is not issued in all cases. As we have said, it can be avoided if you do not drive a car with invalid papers.
Mandatory expenses for the exchange of v / v are still there. We are talking about paying the state duty for the operation. Relevant payments change from time to time.
In 2018, two thousand must be paid for a national type driver’s license, and 1600 rubles for an international model. No more mandatory payments.
Where to change
If more than 12 months have passed after the expiration of the license, the expiration of the driver’s license is carried out in the same way as if the driver’s documentation is invalid for one day. The duration of the delay in this case does not matter. But the faster a person seeks help from government agencies, the less likely it is to get a fine for driving a car without documents.
Replacing an expired driver’s license is carried out in the same bodies as with the early re-issuance of rights. You can apply for the application in the established form at:
- MFC;
- traffic police departments;
- Traffic police;
- Single Window Services
- MREO.
In all cases, the re-release process will be the same. The difference lies only in the fact that when contacting the state traffic inspectorate directly, the duration of a person’s service will be accelerated.
Electronic statement - a fairy tale or a reality?
Is it possible to delay the replacement of a driver’s license? Yes, the main thing is not to get behind the wheel of a car. Otherwise, the driver will be fined in the amounts indicated above.
Are there any ways to file electronic reissuance applications? Yes, but there is only one solution - this is an appeal to the help of the State Services website. Nowhere else are applications for re-issuing remotely accepted remotely.
This option is not available to all drivers. We will have to prepare for its implementation, but more on that later.
Terms of service
Is the license renewal expired? Fear of fines and other sanctions is possible only for those who continue to operate the machine without documents. If the driver has become a pedestrian, he can at any time contact the listed government agencies for help.
How fast is a w / o exchange? On average, citizens receive new rights 5-10 days after the submission of the relevant application. Sometimes the service period for people can be extended to one month. In exceptional cases, up to 60 days.
Fortunately, most often the re-issue of a "driver card" is carried out in two weeks. Nevertheless, it is recommended to focus on the monthly expectation of new documentation.
The role of registration
What to do if a driver’s license has expired for more than 12 months? The replacement of rights in this case is no different from the procedure for exchanging a document whose validity period expired a couple of days ago. Can citizens apply to any of the listed bodies for the implementation of the task? Or will they have to send applications at the place of registration?
The legislation of the Russian Federation allows drivers to reissue a booth without taking into account a residence permit. But STS and PTS need to be changed taking into account the place of residence of the owner of the movable property.
Important: when applying to the registration authorities without registration, the applicant will be served for 2 months. This is quite normal.
Do I need a commission
What to do if I have delayed the replacement of a driver’s license? The driver is advised to abandon the management of the car before reissuing the mentioned documentation. In addition, do not hesitate in the process of replacing rights. It is necessary as soon as possible to contact the registration authorities with a petition and a pre-formed package of certificates.
Earlier in Russia, drivers for any reasons for re-issuing rights had to undergo a medical examination. Only after that, the drivers could get updated documentation for driving a car.
Recently, everything has changed. In the traffic police, the replacement of an expired driver’s license is carried out after passing the medical board. The driver’s health certificate is also provided when:
- "driver card" is changed in connection with a change in health status;
- the citizen receives another category of driving.
In all other cases, early replacement of rights frees drivers from having to undergo a medical examination. These changes greatly simplify the life of the population.
Where to get the commission
A few words about getting a medical certificate for the traffic police. Without this, further preparation for the procedure makes no sense.
The driver's commission can be passed:
- In government clinics and hospitals. The term for the provision of the corresponding service is often delayed by several weeks. But the driver will be able to save on expenses for a medical examination.
- In private multidisciplinary centers. This technique is becoming more common. It helps to save a lot of time and effort. You can go through the commission in a few days, but you will have to spend money.
In addition, in the first case, you must first contact a neuropsychiatric and narcological dispensary. A driver’s commission will be held only if there are certificates from a narcologist and psychiatrist. If you have delayed the replacement of a driver’s license, you will have to undergo a medical examination. Without it, the service will be denied.
Specialists for the Commission
Is it possible to delay the replacement of a driver’s license? Yes, but at the same time, the driver will need to give up driving until the replacement of rights.
What kind of specialists should I visit during the driver’s commission? To successfully obtain a certificate of the established form, a citizen will need to look at:
- a psychiatrist;
- narcologist;
- neurologist;
- to the surgeon;
- ENT;
- optometrist;
- to the therapist.
Elderly drivers are additionally assigned a visit to a cardiologist. If during a medical examination the driver has not revealed any contraindications for driving the car, he will be given a certificate V / U-003. She is needed to reissue rights!
About analyzes
To successfully replace an expired driver’s license, a citizen must pass a series of tests. Without them, the medical board will be considered incomplete.
Among the main studies for the preparation of the certificate V / U-003 there are:
A narcologist can prescribe a body check for the content of psychotropic substances. In addition, any other specialist is able to send the driver to additional research. Usually they are prescribed if the driver has suspicions of certain diseases.
Commission cost
How long can I replace my driver’s license? For any period, if the driver refuses to control the car. Before you drive again, the documentation will have to be updated. Otherwise, fines cannot be avoided.
How much is a driver's commission? The answer depends on where exactly the citizen addresses.
If the commission is held in state polyclinics or hospitals, payment may not be available at all. Or it is symbolic - up to 2,000 rubles. Inquiries from narcologists and psychiatrists are issued free of charge.
Did the driver decide to seek help from a frequent multi-disciplinary center? Then, as already mentioned, you need to spend money. The driver will have to pay about 5-6 thousand rubles for the commission.
It is recommended to specify more accurate information about the cost of the driver's commission in the selected clinic. They will definitely inform you how much you need to pay for the provision of appropriate services.
