Frequently Asked Inquiry Questions
Can you guarantee permit issuance?
Permit issuance is strictly governed by local Public Security Bureau Vehicle Administration Offices (车管所). We provide official application guidelines, document translation standards, and verified counter locations, but statutory discretion remains with PRC authorities.
Do you book rental cars directly?
We are an independent self-drive intelligence and itinerary planning platform. We provide verified depot comparisons and policies for major national fleets (Zuche, eHi), while rental contracts are executed directly between you and the car rental agency.
How far in advance should I plan?
For major mountain corridors such as Xinjiang’s Duku Highway or the Sichuan–Tibet G318, we strongly advise starting preparations at least 4 to 6 weeks before travel to coordinate permit translations, season windows, and high-altitude health clearances.
