中国驾照少于2年,跟没有驾照的人一样对待。下面是BC省对外来驾照的规定,
New B.C. residents
If you are new to B.C. and drive a vehicle, you need to obtain a B.C. driver's licence within 90 days after moving here.
It is best to apply for your B.C. driver's licence well within 90 days of moving to British Columbia. New residents who hold a Canadian, American, Austrian, German, Swiss, Japanese or South Korean licence can usually complete their licence exchange the same day, provided they bring:
(Acceptable translations of these documents may be required.) New residents who hold any other type of driver's licence will require more time because a road test is required.
Note: If you wish to apply for a full-privilege BC driver's licence (Class 5, 6, 1, 2, 3 or 4), you need to prove you have held a licence for at least 24 months. Otherwise, you will be placed in BC's Graduated Licensing Program. If you hold only an out-of-province learner's licence, you are eligible to apply for a Class 7 or 8 GLP learner's licence. See
Getting licensed for more information about GLP.
The tests you will need to take to get a B.C. licence depend on the type of licence you have now:
Canadian, American, Austrian, German, Swiss, Japanese or South Korean driver's licence?
You will be issued a new equivalent class B.C. driver's licence. In most cases, you will not need to take a road test if you hold:
- a Canadian or American passenger car or motorcycle operator's licence, or
- an Austrian, German or Swiss Category B or German Class 3 driver's licence for passenger cars, or
- a Japanese Ordinary driver's licence or a South Korean Class 2 Ordinary driver's licence for passenger cars, or
- a Canadian licence equivalent to a B.C. Class 1, 2, 3 or 4 (commercial) licence
and your licence is valid or expired less than 3 years ago.
Here's how to get your B.C. licence:
1. Take your licence and one piece of primary and one piece of secondary
identification to any
driver licensing office. You may also be required to provide a translation of your driver's licence and a driver's abstract.
2. Answer some traffic safety awareness questions (you may wish to review
RoadSense for Drivers, available at an ICBC driver licensing office).
3. Undergo a vision screening and answer some questions about your medical and physical fitness. You may also be given a medical form to complete if you have a medical condition
[click for definition] that might affect your ability to drive or if you're applying for a commercial licence. 4. Fill out and sign the application form and other documents.
5. Have your photo taken, and receive your new B.C. driver's licence. Fee: $31.
Your licence is valid for 2 years. Then it can be
renewed for 5 years.
Any other type of driver's licence?
You will need to qualify for a B.C. licence if your driver's licence —
- is from a jurisdiction other than B.C. and does not meet the Canadian, American, Austrian, German, Swiss, Japanese or South Korean licence criteria above, or
- does meet the Canadian, American, Austrian, German, Swiss, Japanese or South Korean licence criteria but you've had your full-privilege licence for less than 24 months (see note, above), or
- has expired more than 3 years ago, or
- has been cancelled or revoked.
To qualify for a B.C. licence, you will need to pass a road signs test, a knowledge test, a vision screening and a road test. You will also need to meet the
medical and application requirements.
Here's the process:
1. Review the appropriate ICBC driving guide:
- RoadSense for Drivers (for Class 5, 7 or 7L -- passenger vehicles)
- Tuning Up (for Class 5 or 7 -- passenger vehicles)
- RoadSense for Riders (for Class 6, 8 or 8L -- motorcycles)
- Tuning Up for Riders (for Class 6 or 8 -- motorcycles)
- Driving Commercial Vehicles (for Class 1, 2, 3 or 4).
These are available at any ICBC driver licensing office. They can also be
downloaded from this Web site. Also consider taking
driver training.
2. Take your licence and one piece of primary and one piece of secondary
identification to any
driver licensing office. You may also be required to provide a translation of your driver's licence.
3. Take the knowledge test and a vision screening at any time. You do not need an appointment. Fee: $15 for the knowledge test. There is no charge for the vision screening.
4. When you are ready, make an appointment for your road test at an ICBC driver licensing office,
over the phone, or online if you live in the Lower Mainland (see Road Test Booking Service on the home page and throughout this section.) There is a
fee for the road test.
See
Preparing for road tests for more information on B.C. road tests.
Once you've passed all requirements, you will be issued a new B.C. driver's licence. There is a
fee for the licence.
Never held a full-privilege driver's licence, or have had one for less than 24 months?
If you have never held a full-privilege driver's licence, you must complete B.C.'s Graduated Licensing Program (GLP) to receive your B.C. licence.
You will also need to enter GLP if you have had your full-privilege licence for less than 24 months (see
note, above).
See
Getting Licensed for more information about GLP.
