According to the Traffic Police Department of Dong Nai Province, PET driving licenses are durable, water-resistant, mold-resistant and more secure than traditional cardboard. The card is integrated with a QR code, helping authorities check and verify information quickly and accurately, while limiting the risk of counterfeiting.

Notably, when switching to PET cards, citizens' driver's license information will be updated in the National Population Database and can be integrated into the VNeID electronic identification application. People will not need to carry many documents when participating in traffic or performing administrative procedures.

In addition, a PET driving license is a necessary condition for obtaining an international driving license, creating convenience for Vietnamese people when studying, working or living abroad.
