Lost Your Driver’s License in Maçanet de Cabrenys? Download Your Official Replacement Request Template Here

Losing your Spanish driver's license can be a stressful experience, especially when dealing with local bureaucracy. This template is designed to help you formally request a duplicate (duplicado) of your permit from the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico) due to loss, theft, or deterioration. Using this document ensures you have a clear, written record of your request when visiting official offices.

How and Where to Submit Your Request in Maçanet de Cabrenys

In Spain, the DGT handles all driver's license issues. Because Maçanet de Cabrenys is a smaller municipality, you do not have a permanent DGT office in town. You have three primary ways to submit your application:

• Online via the DGT "Sede Electrónica": This is the fastest method. You will need a digital certificate, Cl@ve, or your DNIe.
• In-Person at a Provincial Traffic Headquarters (Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico): The closest office to Maçanet de Cabrenys is located in Girona. You must book an appointment (cita previa) online or by calling 060 before going.
• By Phone: You can call 060 to initiate the process, though you will still need to handle the payment and finalize the documentation through the DGT portal or in person.

Additional Documentation Required

To ensure your request is processed without delays, you must provide the following alongside your application:

• Identity Document: Your original DNI or TIE/Passport (must be valid).
• Proof of Payment: The receipt of payment for the DGT Fee 4.4 (approx. 20.81€, subject to change). You can pay this online through the DGT website or at the office.
• Photograph: If you are applying in person, you will need to provide a current original photograph (32x26 mm) in color.
• Declaration: If your license was stolen, it is highly recommended to file a police report (denuncia) at the nearest Guardia Civil or Mossos d'Esquadra station, though it is not strictly required for a duplicate if the reason is simple loss.

Expert Tip: Always check the DGT website for the most current fee amounts before heading to the Girona office. If you choose to go in person, ensure your "cita previa" is confirmed via email or SMS, as walk-ins are rarely accepted. Once your request is processed, the DGT will provide you with a temporary authorization that allows you to drive legally in Spain while your physical card is printed and mailed to your registered address.
