Does Taishan City still need a residence permit to apply for a network car operation permit?

No need. Taishan City only needs my ID card to apply for the network car business license, but does not need this residence permit, and there is no requirement for this residence permit. To apply for online car rental permit, you need to fill in the Application Form for Online Car Rental Permit, submit the original and photocopy of the vehicle driving license, and provide the original and photocopy of the car purchase invoice and vehicle registration certificate for newly purchased vehicles.
