Instructions on how and where to submit it in Viñuelas
As Viñuelas is a smaller locality, you do not have a permanent DGT office within the town limits. You have two primary ways to submit your request:
- Online via the DGT "Sede Electrónica": This is the fastest method. You will need a digital certificate, Cl@ve, or your DNIe. You can upload the completed request and pay the corresponding fee (Tasa 4.4) directly through the portal.
- In-Person at the Provincial Traffic Office (Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico): For residents of the Guadalajara province, the nearest office is located in Guadalajara city. You must book an appointment (cita previa) by calling 060 or visiting the DGT website before attending.

Additional documentation required
To ensure your request is processed without delays, you must accompany the template with the following items:
- Proof of Identity: Your original DNI, NIE, or Passport (which must be valid).
- Payment of Fees: The receipt of payment for the "Tasa 4.4," which covers the administrative cost of the duplicate. You can pay this online or at the bank.
- Photograph: If you are applying in person, you usually need to provide a current passport-sized photograph (32x26 mm). If applying online, the DGT will typically pull the photo from their existing database.
- Declaration of theft (optional): If your license was stolen, it is highly recommended to file a police report (denuncia) at the nearest Guardia Civil station, although it is not strictly required to request the duplicate.
Expert Tip: Always check the status of your license online before heading to the office. If your license is nearing its expiration date, it is often more cost-effective to request a full renewal (renovación) rather than a duplicate, as the process is similar but provides you with a longer validity period. Always keep a digital copy of your submitted paperwork until the physical card arrives at your registered address in Viñuelas.
