Frequently asked questions

Can I renew the DNI without an appointment?
No. Since 2020, an appointment is mandatory at all offices in Spain.
How much does it cost to renew the DNI in 2026?
The current fee is €12 (Fee 790-012). It's free for first-time applicants under 14 years old and those who report loss or theft.
What happens if my DNI has been expired for many years?
There is no penalty for having an expired DNI in a civilian context. The procedure and cost are the same, but it's not valid for travel abroad.
How long does it take to receive the new DNI?
The new DNI 4.0 is issued immediately at the end of the appointment, in 15-20 minutes. You don't need to return another day. If there's a technical issue, they will inform you and give you another appointment.
Can a minor renew their DNI?
Yes, but must be accompanied by the father, mother, or legal guardian who should present their own DNI.
How do I book an appointment to renew my DNI?
Log in to citapreviadnie.es, select 'DNI/Pasaporte Issuance', choose province and police station, and pick a date and time. If no appointments are available, try logging in at 08:00 when new slots open up.
Is the DNI delivered immediately?
Yes. The new DNI 4.0 is issued on the same day of the appointment, usually within 15-20 minutes. No need to return another day for collection.
When does the DNI expire?
The validity depends on age: under 5 years → 2 years; 5 to 29 years → 5 years; 30 to 69 years → 10 years; 70 or older → permanent (indefinite).
Can I renew the DNI before it expires?
Yes. You can request renewal when there is less than a year left until expiration, though many police stations process it even earlier. There's no penalty for renewing in advance.
What do I do if I lose my DNI or it was stolen?
You must report the loss or theft (in any police station or via the National Police Electronic Office). With the case number, request an appointment at citapreviadnie.es. In this case, the fee 790-012 is waived.
