How to Request a Duplicate Driver's License in Beranga Due to Loss or Theft (Downloadable Template)

If you have lost your Spanish driver's license or it has been stolen, you are legally required to obtain a duplicate before you can continue driving. This template provides a formal request letter to help you navigate the administrative process with the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico). While the DGT often processes these requests online or via appointment, having a formal document is essential if you need to visit an office in person to resolve specific administrative hurdles.

Instructions on how and where to submit it in Beranga

Beranga is a small municipality in Cantabria. Because there is no local DGT office in Beranga itself, you must direct your administrative efforts toward the Provincial Traffic Headquarters (Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico) in Santander.

Step 1: Prepare your documentation, including the filled-out template below and your DNI or NIE.
Step 2: Book an appointment ("Cita Previa") on the official DGT website (sede.dgt.gob.es). Walk-ins are generally not accepted for duplicate requests.
Step 3: Travel to the Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico in Santander (located at C. del Río de la Pila, 11).
Step 4: Present the document and pay the mandatory administrative fee (Tasa 4.4). You can pay this online beforehand or via card at the office.

Additional documentation required

To ensure your request is processed without delays, you must bring the following items to the Santander office:

Your original DNI, NIE, or Passport (it must be valid).
The completed "Solicitud de Duplicado" form (provided by the DGT at the office or the template above).
Proof of payment of the "Tasa 4.4" fee.
In case of theft, it is highly recommended to bring a copy of the police report (denuncia) filed at the Guardia Civil or Policía Nacional, although it is not strictly mandatory for the duplicate itself.
You do not need a new photograph if your current data is already in the DGT system, as they will use the existing one.

Expert Tip: Before making the trip to Santander, check the DGT website to see if you can perform the "Duplicado" process entirely online via the "Cl@ve" system or a digital certificate. This will save you the commute from Beranga. If you must go in person, always check your appointment time twice, as the Santander office is frequently busy and they strictly enforce the schedule.
