LOST DRIVING LICENCE

My daughter lost her Italian driving licence somewhere, does anyone have recent experience regarding the process to follow, probable time scales etc.

I dont know about Rome, but she needs to get down to the motorizzazione and tell them, and it may require a denuncia to the police. Itll cost for a new one, but should only take a week /10 days.

(Possibly the two were the same - i.e. the denuncia of the loss may have worked as a temporary substitute.) Anyway, it wasn't a problem. The important thing was to make the denuncia. I don't remember how long a replacement took to appear, but it wasn't all that long. Maybe a month.

thanks for the input, i found a useful page on the Ministero delle Infrastrutture e dei Trasporti web site, confirms more or less what you have said http://mit.gov.it/come-fare-per/pate...to-distruzione

I would say get down to the Carabinieri first stop. They will issue you a document that allows you 90 days, with a further extension if necessary. This gives you ample time to do the sorting out to get a new licence.
ciao for now,
