The document signed by Deputy Director of the Vietnam Road Administration Phan Thi Thu Hien said that, implementing the direction of the leaders of the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Transport at the meeting on February 11, the preparation for the handover of the State management task of testing and granting driving licenses from the Ministry of Transport to the Ministry of Public Security is expected before February 19.

In order to make the handover quick and neat, without affecting the issuance and renewal of driving licenses for people, the Vietnam Road Administration requires the Departments of Transport to coordinate with local police to fully prepare the contents related to the task of testing and issuing driving licenses so that they can be handed over immediately when requested.

The Departments of Transport have appropriate testing plans, receive applications for issuing and exchanging driving licenses, and complete the issuance of driving licenses for those who have submitted applications to the Department before the above time.

In order to avoid interrupting the work of issuing driving licenses to people during the time of task transfer, and at the same time avoid waste when the Ministry of Transport stops testing and issuing driving licenses, the Vietnam Road Administration requests that the Departments of Transport review and forecast the number of driving license stamps needed to serve the needs of issuing and exchanging driving licenses until February 2025.

In which, there is a plan to use until February 19 and a plan to use until February 28, report to the Department for synthesis and production order.

At the same time, localities need to proactively plan to effectively use the driver's license stamp blanks that have been ordered for production, avoiding excess and increasing the volume of driver's license stamp blanks.
