The Transport Department announced today that online appointment bookings for “direct issue” of the Hong Kong Full Driving License will be fully implemented from March 16.

The service will be expanded from the Admiralty office to all four licensing offices, with total daily booking slots increased to 550.

New booking slots from March 16 to April 10 will be opened in batches from March 10 to 13.

The department reminded the public that all applicants must reserve an appointment for “direct issue” counter services via the designated online appointment booking system and submit their applications at the assigned licensing office.

Same-day ticketing for these services will be discontinued on March 16. However, any “direct issue” counter services secured through the online system before this date will remain in effect.

Furthermore, the 24-hour telephone booking service at 3763 8080 will stop providing appointments for “direct issue’ counter services once the online system is fully implemented.
