Apply for a replacement driver's license
Description
If your driver's license has been lost or destroyed, for example due to theft, illegibility or loss, you will need a new driver's license unless you surrender your driver's license. If you do not immediately report the loss of your driver's license and apply for a replacement document, you are committing a misdemeanor.
If your name has changed, you do not have to get a new driver's license. However, especially when driving abroad, it may be useful to be in possession of an EU card driver's license with current information. If you wish to change your name on your driver's license, a new card driver's license will be issued upon request.
- The fee is based on the Fee Regulations for Road Traffic Measures (GebOSt).
- If the driver's license is sent directly to the home address, an additional shipping fee will be charged.
- The basic fee for the new (replacement) driving license is: 35.60 euros
- If you wish to continue driving until the new license is issued, a provisional driving license is required for 7.70 euros.
- In the event of loss, an affidavit must be submitted, the fee is: 30.70 euros, which is not payable if a theft report is submitted (to the police).
- The driver's license can be sent to your home address (direct mailing) for an additional fee of 5.10 euros.
You can apply for a replacement driving licence to be issued to the driving licence authority responsible for you in your district or independent city.
