Frequently asked questions

Can I renew my DNI without an appointment?
No. Since 2020, appointments are mandatory in all offices across Spain.
How much does it cost to renew the DNI in 2026?
The current fee is €12.00 (fee 790-012). The first issue for minors under 14 years old and renewal due to theft or loss are exempt.
What happens if my DNI has been expired for a long time?
There is no penalty for having an expired DNI in the civil context. The procedure and cost are the same, but it is not valid for international travel.
How long does it take to receive the new DNI?
The DNI 4.0 is delivered on the spot at the end of your appointment in 15-20 minutes. No need to return another day. If there are technical issues, they will inform you and give you a new appointment.
Can a minor renew their DNI?
Yes, but must be accompanied by the parent, guardian or legal custodian who should present their own DNI.
How do I request an appointment to renew my DNI?
Log in to citapreviadnie.es, select 'DNI/Passport Issuance', choose province and station, then pick date and time. If no slots are available, try logging in at 08:00 AM when new appointments become available.
Is the DNI delivered immediately?
Yes. The new DNI 4.0 is issued on the spot during your appointment, usually within 15-20 minutes. There is no need to return another day for collection.
When does a DNI expire?
The validity depends on age at renewal: under 5 years → 2 years; 5 to 29 years → 5 years; 30 to 69 years → 10 years; 70 years and older → permanent (indefinite).
Can I renew my DNI before it expires?
Yes. You can apply when there is less than one year left until expiration, although many stations process applications even earlier. There is no penalty for renewing in advance.
What should I do if I have lost or stolen my DNI?
You must file a report of loss or theft (in any police station or through the National Police E-Site). With the case number, request an appointment on citapreviadnie.es. In this case, fee 790-012 is waived.
