REPLACING (Not Renewing)
Hi,
I have lost my European (Spanish) Driving Licence and want a new one. The DGT Website says I can get a COPY from the Provincial Traffic Department.
You need to make an appointment but when stating the "business" you want the licence for it states Renovar, Renewal. Renewal however means taking the Medical again and I did the medical earlier this year and which does me for 5 more years.
Does anyone know the actual procedures for getting a (COPY) of my licence. (I have a photo copy of it)
As always I am Very Grateful for any help given.

Insert your nearest centre , Fuengirola probably Malaga then insert "Tramites de Oficina" and click on "Continuar " . The same again on the next page - fill out the form to get your appointment.
Remember you will need to pay a fee, either do it before at a bank and take proof of payment or use a credit card at Trafico. Don't think you need a photo for the standard plastic driving licence, they should have it on record.

Re: REPLACING (Not Renewing)
Yes a photo is needed as per their info sheet
5th.PHOTOGRAPH (only for driving permits): an original 32 x 26 mm photograph in colour and taken against a plain background, facing forward without anything covering the head, without sunglasses or tinted glasses or any other item which may prevent or make the identification of the person problematic. Veils may be acceptable in photographs of applicants who, for religious purposes, wear a head covering that obscures their hair, with the only limitation that their full face must be visible from the hairline to the bottom of the chin so as not to prevent or make the identification of the person problematic.
