Lost Your Driver’s License in Toro? Download Your Replacement Request Template Here

If you have lost your driver's license or it has been stolen while living in or visiting Toro (Zamora), you are legally required to obtain a duplicate before you can continue driving. This process is straightforward, but it requires specific documentation to be presented to the Spanish Traffic Authority (DGT). Below, you will find a ready-to-use template to help you formalize your request for a duplicate license.

How and Where to Submit Your Request in Toro

In Spain, driver’s license procedures are handled by the Dirección General de Tráfico (DGT). Since Toro does not have a local DGT branch, you have two primary options:

• Online: The most efficient method is via the DGT Electronic Office (Sede Electrónica). You will need a digital certificate, Cl@ve, or your DNIe.
• In-Person: You must visit the nearest Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico. For residents of Toro, the nearest office is located in the provincial capital: Zamora (usually located at Calle de la Amargura, 1). It is mandatory to schedule an appointment (cita previa) by calling 060 or visiting the DGT website before arriving.

Additional Documentation Required

When you go to the DGT office or apply online, ensure you have the following items ready:

• Application Form: The official DGT form (or the template provided above).
• Proof of Identity: Your original, valid DNI, NIE, or Passport.
• Payment of Fees: You must pay "Tasa 4.4" (the fee for a duplicate license). You can pay this online through the DGT website before your appointment or via credit card at the office (cash is generally not accepted).
• Photo: If you are applying in person, you usually need to bring a current 32x26mm photograph in color, though many offices now take the photo digitally on-site.

Expert Tip: If your license was stolen, it is highly recommended to file a police report (denuncia) at the local Guardia Civil station in Toro before requesting your duplicate. While not strictly required for a simple loss, it protects you against potential identity theft or misuse of your license. Furthermore, ensure your address in the DGT system is up to date; if you have moved recently, you must update your address (empadronamiento) before requesting the duplicate to ensure the physical card arrives at your current home in Toro.
