Overview
- The city confirmed the application window now runs through all of 2026, with the fee maintained at 1,500 pesos.
- A digital permanent license is available indefinitely, holds the same validity as the physical card, and can be stored in App CDMX/Llave CDMX.
- Online issuance requires a recent CDMX-issued license on file and up-to-date biometrics; applicants without those records must book an in‑person appointment.
- The theoretical exam of 20 questions (16 correct to pass) applies only to first‑time permanent applicants, while previous Type A holders are exempt.
- Despite extended hours to 9:00 p.m. and added capacity at 35+ modules and a macromodule in Magdalena Mixhuca, long lines persist as many still believe the original 2025 cutoff remains in effect.
