70 this year.

Hi Iam 70 this year already have a spanish driving licence but im told i have to re apply once 70 anyone point me in the correct direction what i need to do.

Good question I am 69 next week past my medical a few weeks ago and informed it could take 10 months with the back log to receive my license do we need another medical at 70 tia.

Your Spanish licence should have an expiry date on it. Like UK driving licences, they expire when you are 70.
You need a medical at aged 70 and apply for a renewal which will be 5 years if you pass all the medical tests.

If you go to clinica La Siesta, they will make an appointment for you, carry out the medical, give you a temporary licence until your new one arrives, take the photo, complete all the paperwork and process it for you.

The cost is €40 for the medical. If you are over 70 then the renewal cost is free but, even just 1 day under 70, they will charge €20.
I got mine done a week before I was 70 and had to pay €60, my wife's was done on her 70th birthday and cost €40.

Hers was renewed two years ago and mine at the beginning of last year and both took 3 weeks to arrive.
The temporary licence is valid for 3 months and they will update if for free if your new one hasn't arrived.

There are other places.

Thank you Marcliff.

Hi. I got my Spanish driving licence in May 2019 and the expiry date is Feb 2024. However I am 70 in August this year. Has there been a change because mine doesn’t expire at 70?

Yes thank you all.I Was hoping to maybe go to the Psicotecico in Rojajes is that still possible.

Spanish driving licences have to be renewed every 10 years or every 5 years after you are 65. If the licence is issued after you are 65 then it will be for 5 years so there is no need to renew it when you reach 70.
Those that were issued before you were 65 will only be valid until you reach 70.

I changed my d/l to Spanish at 65 and 3 months had to renew at at 70 and 3 months
