Hi everyone, hope you're all doing well.

I'm looking for advice on how to get a Chinese driver's license as a foreigner. From what I understand, the easiest way is to convert a driver's license from my home country, but unfortunately, I don't have the time to go back and get one there right now.

The other path is to sign up with a driving school in China. However, when I visited a local driving school, they told me the regular fee for Chinese citizens is 5,000 RMB, but for foreigners, they quoted me 10,000 RMB. I already have experience driving on the left side of the road, but I need to get used to driving on the right side, pass the test, and obtain my license.

Does anyone know of any reputable and reasonably priced driving schools that work with foreigners and can help me practice right‑hand driving and prepare for the exam? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
