Lost Your Driver's License in Epila? Download the Official Replacement Request Template
Losing your Spanish driver's license can be a stressful experience, especially when you need to navigate the local bureaucracy in a town like Epila. This template is designed to help you formally request a duplicate of your driving permit from the Directorate-General for Traffic (DGT) due to loss, theft, or deterioration. Using this document ensures your request is clear and professionally formatted for the Spanish administrative authorities.
Instructions on how and where to submit it in Epila
Since Epila is located in the province of Zaragoza, you do not need to go to the provincial capital for every procedure, but you must be aware of the official channels:
- Digital Submission (Recommended): The fastest way to submit this request is through the DGT "Sede Electrónica" using a digital certificate or Cl@ve. You can upload the completed form and pay the required fee (Tasa 4.4) online.
- In-Person Submission: If you prefer to go in person, you must request an appointment ("Cita Previa") at the Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico de Zaragoza. You can book this via the DGT website or by calling 060.
- Documentation: Ensure you have your NIE or DNI ready. Even if you submit the template, the official clerk will verify your identity against the national database.

Additional documentation required
To successfully process your duplicate request in Zaragoza, you must prepare the following items:
- Proof of Identity: Your original, valid DNI or NIE. If you are a non-EU citizen, you must also provide your valid Passport and your TIE (Tarjera de Identidad de Extranjero).
- Payment of Fee: The "Tasa 4.4" must be paid. You can pay this online through the DGT website before your appointment or via credit card at the Traffic Headquarters office.
- Photograph: A current photograph (32x26 mm) in color, taken against a plain background, looking straight ahead.
- Declaration of Loss: While the DGT system is mostly digital, carrying this signed template acts as a formal declaration of the loss, which is helpful if you are asked to provide a written statement.
Expert Tip: Always keep a photocopy of your submitted application stamped by the office. Until your new physical card arrives, the DGT will provide you with a temporary permit (valid for 90 days), which allows you to drive legally within Spanish territory. If you plan to drive abroad, wait until your permanent card arrives, as the temporary paper permit is not always recognized by authorities in other countries.
