How to Request a Duplicate Driver's License in Ubrique: Downloadable Template
If you have lost your Spanish driver's license or it has been stolen, you must obtain a duplicate to continue driving legally. This process is essential to ensure you are not fined during routine traffic stops. Below, you will find a ready-to-use template designed to help you formally request a replacement from the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico).
Instructions on how and where to submit your request in Ubrique
In Spain, the DGT handles all licensing matters. Since there is no permanent DGT office in Ubrique, you have two primary options:
- Online via the DGT "Sede Electrónica": This is the fastest method. You will need a digital certificate, Cl@ve, or an electronic DNI.
- In-person at the Provincial Traffic Headquarters (Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico): The closest office to Ubrique is in Cádiz (located at Calle Acacias, 5). You must book an appointment ("Cita Previa") by calling 060 or visiting the DGT website before arriving.
- Important Note: While you can use the template below to formalize your request or provide it as a written record, the DGT often requires the process to be initiated through their specific digital portal or official appointment system.

Additional documentation required
To successfully process your duplicate, ensure you have the following items ready:
- Your valid DNI or NIE (original).
- Proof of payment of the official DGT fee (Tasa 4.4), which can be paid online via the DGT website.
- A current passport-sized photograph (32x26 mm) if you are submitting the request in person.
- The completed official DGT application form (available at the office).
Expert Tip: If your license was stolen, it is highly recommended to file a police report ("denuncia") at the local Guardia Civil or Policía Local station in Ubrique before requesting the duplicate. This protects you in case your license is used fraudulently. Furthermore, always check the DGT website for the most current fee amounts, as they are subject to annual adjustments. If you are in a rush, the digital process is almost always faster than visiting the Cádiz office in person.
