Lost Your Driving License in Mendavia? Download Your Official Replacement Request Template Here
If you have lost your Spanish driving license or if it has been stolen, you are legally required to obtain a duplicate before you can drive again. This template is designed to help you prepare the formal request (Solicitud de Duplicado) that you must present to the traffic authorities in Spain. While the process can often be started online via the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico) website, having a formal document ready is essential if you need to resolve the issue in person at a local office.
Instructions on how and where to submit it in Mendavia
Mendavia does not have a permanent DGT head office. For residents of Mendavia, the closest provincial headquarters (Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico) is located in Logroño (La Rioja) or Pamplona (Navarra), depending on your specific administrative registration. Before going, follow these steps:
- Request an Appointment: You must book a "Cita Previa" through the official DGT website or by calling 060.
- Prepare the Template: Complete the template below with your personal details.
- Payment: You must pay the official fee (tasa) for a duplicate license (Tasa 4.4) before your appointment. This can be done online through the DGT website.
- Visit the Office: Bring your completed document, your DNI or NIE (original), and proof of payment to your scheduled appointment.

Additional documentation required
To ensure your request is processed without delays, you must bring the following items to your appointment:
- Valid Identification: Your original DNI (National Identity Document) or your TIE (Foreigner Identity Card). If you are an EU citizen, bring your original Passport along with your NIE certificate.
- The "Tasa" Receipt: Proof of payment of fee 4.4, which covers the administrative costs of the duplicate.
- Photograph: A recent color photograph (32x26 mm), though in many modern DGT offices, they will take your photo digitally on-site. It is always safer to have one on hand just in case.
- Police Report (Denuncia): If your license was stolen, it is highly recommended to bring a copy of the police report filed at the Guardia Civil or Policia Nacional.
Expert Tip: Since Mendavia is located in a border area between regions, always check if your administrative traffic file is handled by the Pamplona office or the Logroño office. If you choose to use the DGT online portal (Sede Electrónica), you will need a digital certificate (Certificado Digital) or Cl@ve PIN. This is the fastest way to resolve the issue without needing to travel to a provincial capital, as they will mail the new license directly to your home address in Mendavia.
