The physical card for a still-valid Spanish driving licence has been lost. Which procedure provides a replacement card?

Correct answer

Apply for a duplicate due to loss.

Apply for a duplicate due to loss. This does not renew its validity or add vehicle categories. The DGT provides application channels, including those accepted by its electronic office; visiting the traffic office in your city is not always required. A licence available in miDGT is equally valid for driving within Spain, but an ordinary photocopy does not replace the card merely because it is in good condition. Renewal is a different procedure for an expired licence; this question excludes that case.
