How to Get a Duplicate Driving Licence in Vilamarxant Due to Loss (Download Word/PDF Template)

Losing your Spanish driving licence (carnet de conducir) can be a stressful experience, especially if you need to drive daily around Vilamarxant and the wider Valencian Community. Fortunately, obtaining a duplicate due to loss, theft, or deterioration is a straightforward administrative process if you know the exact steps. To help you expedite this bureaucratic hurdle, we have prepared an official template that you can easily adapt and present to the relevant authorities.

Instructions on how and where to submit it in Vilamarxant

In Spain, driving licences are managed exclusively by the Dirección General de Tráfico (DGT). Residents of Vilamarxant do not need to travel all the way to Madrid or even downtown Valencia for every procedure, as you have several convenient options to submit your request for a duplicate licence:

• Online via the DGT e-Office (Sede Electrónica): This is the fastest method. You will need a digital certificate (Certificado Digital), Cl@ve, or your DNIe. You can pay the corresponding fee online and download a temporary provisional licence immediately.
• In-Person at the Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico in Valencia: If you prefer or need to do it in person, you must request an appointment (cita previa) beforehand by calling 060 or visiting the DGT website. The Valencia office is the closest physical headquarters for residents of Vilamarxants.
• Through Authorized Collaborators (Gestorías): If you want to avoid administrative headaches entirely, you can hire a local *gestoría* in Vilamarxant to handle the submission on your behalf for a small service fee.

Additional documentation required

To ensure your application for a duplicate driving licence is approved without delay, you must gather and present the following documents alongside your written request:

• Official DGT Application Form: Specifically the "Solicitud de Conductores" form (though this is automatically generated if you apply online or at the Jefatura).
• Proof of Identity: Original and valid DNI or NIE (Passport is also accepted for foreign nationals).
• Passport-sized Photograph: A recent, original photograph measuring 32x26 mm, in color and with a plain background (not required if you apply online using certain digital identification methods or at the physical DGT office where they capture your photo digitally).
• Payment Receipt of the DGT Fee: Rate 4.4 (Tasa 4.4). You can pay this online via the DGT website before your appointment or at the Jefatura using a credit/debit card (cash is generally not accepted at DGT offices).

Expert Tip: Always request the permiso provisional (temporary authorization to drive) the moment your request is processed. In Spain, driving without a physical licence can result in a fine, even if your records are clean in the DGT database. The provisional permit is completely free and immediately valid for up to 90 days, allowing you to drive safely around Vilamarxant while your official card arrives by mail.
