Losing your Spanish driving license can be a stressful experience, especially when you need to navigate the local bureaucracy.

This template is designed to help you formally request a replacement, ensuring you have the correct legal wording to process your application efficiently.
How and where to submit your request in Villalba del Rey
As Villalba del Rey is located in the province of Cuenca, you do not need to submit this in person at the town hall. Instead, you have two primary options:
- Online via the DGT Electronic Office: This is the fastest method. You will need a Cl@ve PIN or digital certificate.
- In-person at the Provincial Traffic Headquarters (Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico): Since there is no DGT office in Villalba del Rey, you must travel to the nearest office, which is located in Cuenca capital. You must book an appointment ("Cita Previa") via the DGT website before arriving.

Additional documentation required
To ensure your request is accepted without delays, you must accompany the document above with the following:
- Proof of Identity: Your original DNI or NIE (and a photocopy).
- Payment of Fees: You must pay the official DGT fee (Tasa 4.4) for duplicate licenses. You can pay this online through the DGT website or via credit card at the Traffic Headquarters.
- Photograph: If you are applying in person, bring a recent original color photograph (32x26 mm).
- Declaration of loss: The template provided acts as your formal declaration of the loss of the document.
Expert Tip: Before making the trip to Cuenca, check if your license is still valid. If your license was close to expiration, the DGT may suggest that you renew it entirely rather than just requesting a duplicate, as the renewal process updates your photo and medical certificate. Always keep a copy of your submitted request as a temporary proof of your application until your new card arrives by mail.
