Your Step-by-Step Guide
Driving in Spain offers incredible freedom, but keeping your paperwork up to date is essential to avoid heavy fines and insurance issues. If your Spanish driving licence is approaching its expiry date, you may be wondering about the “psychotechnical” tests and the dreaded DGT bureaucracy.
At Spanish Solutions, we’ve designed a streamlined booking service to take the stress out of the renewal process, ensuring you stay legal on the road without the headache.
Understanding the Renewal Process
Unlike some countries where renewal is a simple mail-in process, Spain requires drivers to undergo a basic medical and aptitude assessment. This is to ensure every driver meets the physical and mental standards required for road safety.
The renewal involves:
- A Medical Assessment: A brief check of your general health and eyesight.
- A Psychotechnical Test: Often called the “coordination videogame” by our clients, this is a simple test used to measure your reactions and hand-eye coordination.
- DGT Submission: Once the medical centre clears you, the application, along with new photos must be submitted to the Dirección General de Tráfico (DGT).
How Spanish Solutions Makes it Easy
We know that navigating Spanish medical centres and traffic department systems can be daunting, especially if there is a language barrier. That’s why we offer a comprehensive support service.
Our service includes:
- Paperwork Collation: We ensure all your documents are correct and meet current DGT standards.
- Appointment Booking: We secure your slot at our partner medical centre, saving you the time and frustration of booking it yourself.
- Direct Submission: Your results and application are sent directly to the DGT who will create and issue your new licence. Your new photos will be taken on the day of your medical appointment.
- Delivery Options: You can choose to have your new licence delivered directly to your Spanish home address or collect it from the medical centre once it arrives.
Ready to Renew? Here’s How to Start
We’ve made the “onboarding” process as simple as possible. To get things moving, we only need a few things from you:
- Photos: Clear photos of the front and back of your TIE card and your current Driving Licence.
- Availability: Your preferred day of the week and whether you prefer an AM or PM appointment.
Once you send these details to our team, we will provide a secure payment link for our booking fee and begin preparing your application immediately.
