Carry your driving licence on your mobile in Spain
Step-by-step guide to downloading your licence from the DGT
The General Directorate of Traffic (DGT) has launched a new initiative in Spain whereby it is possible to save your driving licence on your mobile. The free MiDGT app can be downloaded and authorities have confirmed that the document has the same validity as a physical licence within Spain. The new app should remove the headache of always having to carry a driving licence and the fear of losing it.
However, drivers have been advised to continue to keep their physical licence on their person for the time being, as mobile verification is currently only available to agents of the Traffic Division of the Guardia Civil, although plans are in place to extend this to the rest of the traffic bodies in the near future.
Step-by-step instructions to install a driving licence on a mobile
1. Download the 'MiDGT' app to your mobile
- iPhone users can now use this app fully, while it is still in the testing phase on Android.
2. Access the 'MiDGT' app
- Once you have the app on your mobile, you will have to identify yourself by using one of the following:
- DNIe
- An electronic certificate
- Cl@ve PIN
- The electronic identity Cl@ve
3. Using the ‘MiDGT’ licence app
- Once registered on the app, the driver’s name and licence will appear on the home page, as well as additional data such as which vehicles are registered to their name, how many points are left on the licence and current DGT news.
4. On the home screen, drivers can access the following information:
- Official driving licence
- Electronic data sheet of your vehicle, as well as ITV and insurance details
- Penalty points
- Driver’s personal details that are in the DGT records
- Relevant news, alerts and notices about traffic and road safety.
New features
In the coming months, the app will begin to incorporate new functionalities designed to make life easier.
Some of these features include:
- Requesting an appointment at the closest DGT office
- Obtaining the vehicle report
- Notice and payment of penalties
- Identification of the driver in case of complaint
- Verification of official documents
- Communication of the usual driver of the vehicle
- Checking of driving test results
- Vehicle registration
- Transfer of ownership of vehicles
