    For DGT (Spain’s traffic authority) submission, prepare the completed official renewal application, accepted original identity and residence documents, a fitness report from an authorised centre issued within the preceding 90 working days, and the applicable fee number or payment evidence. At a medical centre, staff can take the photograph and arrange the application and fee. DGT does not require a new photo where it already holds the necessary image; agricultural LVA and reduced-mobility LCM licences have additional photo requirements. DGT counter fees are paid by card, not cash. A representative needs properly documented authorisation. Electronic filing requires accepted digital identification, clear scans and selection of the receiving DGT office; keep the receipt. Filing is not automatic approval and may require a later office visit. A provisional permit is valid for driving in Spain only; confirm travel arrangements before relying on it.
