Required Documents and Procedures

According to the Road Traffic Law, it is forbidden to drive without a license. For this reason, no matter which vehicle you are driving, you must have your driver's license with you. Failure to comply with this rule will result in an administrative fine.

As soon as you realize that your driver's license is lost, if you are going to continue driving, you need to fulfill the procedures you need to do without delay. First of all, you should know that there is no obligation to advertise your lost or stolen driver's license in the official newspaper.

Let us now list the steps for you:

  1. Appointment
    First of all, you should apply by making an appointment at the Civil Registry Offices. You can use the internet or the ALO199 line for this.
  1. Health Report
    The question everyone wonders in case your driver's license is lost: Do I have to get a medical certificate again? Yes, you do. You can get a medical report from a public hospital or your family doctor.
  1. New Driver's License Fee Payment
    Before you go to the appointment you have made, you must deposit money for the new driver's license you will get.

The fee to be paid by those who will replace their old type driver's license with a new type driver's license: 15 TL. The fee to be paid by those who want to renew, lose or have their new type of driver's license stolen: 340 TL.
