Lost Your Driving License in Arraioz? Download Your Duplicate Request Template Here
If you have lost your Spanish driving license or it has been stolen, you are legally required to obtain a duplicate before you can continue driving. This process is managed by the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico). This article provides a clear, practical guide and a ready-to-use template to help you navigate this administrative requirement if you reside in the Arraioz area.
How and Where to Submit Your Request in Arraioz
Since Arraioz is a small town in the Baztan valley (Navarra), you do not have a local DGT office within the village. You have three primary ways to submit your request:
- Online via the DGT Sede Electrónica: This is the fastest method. You will need a digital certificate, Cl@ve, or your DNIe.
- By Phone: You can call 060 to request a duplicate, pay the fee, and have the document mailed to your home address.
- In-Person (Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico): If you prefer to handle this in person, you must travel to the Provincial Traffic Headquarters in Pamplona (Calle Vuelta del Castillo, 11). You must book an appointment (Cita Previa) online or by calling 060 before arriving.

Additional Documentation Required
To ensure your request is processed without delays, make sure you have the following ready:
- Proof of Identity: Your original DNI or NIE card (and a photocopy).
- Payment of Fees: You must pay "Tasa 4.4" (currently 20.81€) via the DGT website or at the office using a credit card (cash is generally not accepted at DGT offices).
- Photograph: If you are applying in person, bring a recent passport-sized photograph (32x26 mm).
- Declaration of Loss: While not always strictly mandatory if you use the official DGT form, having a signed declaration (as provided in our template) is highly recommended for your personal records.
Expert Tip: Always check the status of your license online through the DGT "MiDGT" app. Once you process your request, you will be issued a temporary authorization that allows you to drive legally within Spain while your physical duplicate is being printed and mailed to your registered address in Arraioz. Do not attempt to drive without this temporary proof if you have already reported the original as lost.
