Additional documentation required
When you submit your request, whether in person or via a representative, you must carry the following documents:
- Official Application Form: The "Impreso de solicitud de trámites de conductor," which is the official DGT form.
- Identification: Your original DNI or NIE (if you are a foreign national, your residence permit).
- Photo: A current original photograph (32x26 mm) in color, plain background, facing forward, without dark glasses or any garment that prevents identification.
- Payment: You must pay the corresponding fee (Tasa 4.4). You can pay this online through the DGT website before your appointment or via credit card at the Traffic office.
Expert Tip: Always double-check if your license was stolen rather than simply lost. If it was stolen, you should file a police report ("denuncia") at the nearest Guardia Civil post in Rocafort or the National Police station. While a police report is not strictly mandatory for a simple replacement, it protects you against potential identity theft or misuse of your license by third parties. Remember that driving without your physical license—even if you have an appointment—is a punishable offense, so keep a digital copy or your temporary authorization handy once the process has started.
