You can report the loss or theft of your driver's license in two ways:
- Free online reporting to the RDW. For this, you will need DigiD.
- By appointment at the front desk. You will then fill out a missing persons declaration and pay a €24.50 missing persons fee.
Application after stolen/lost driver's license
A replacement driver's license cannot be applied for online.
- Apply for a replacement driver's license: by appointment at the front desk.
Make an appointment
- Block driver's license (prior to your appointment)
Block your missing driver's license online at the RDW (free of charge) or fill out a statement of loss (€24.50) during your appointment.
- Bring with you to the appointment:
- color passport photo: not older than six months + meets the passport photo requirements
- valid identification document
- cash/pin card: you pay at the time of application
- under 18 years of age: a companion pass (to be requested via 2todrive)
- Pick up driver's license:
You do not need to make an appointment to pick up your driver's license.
Do this within 3 months or you will have to reapply.
Excluded special/holidays can do so during our regular business hours:- Monday: 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Rush request
Driver's licenses applied for urgently before 2:30 p.m. can usually be picked up the next business day (officially this allows 48 hours).
This is not possible online but only at the counter. Please make an appointment for this by phone at 0499-491491.
For an urgent application, you pay an additional €39.65.
Health Statement
Have you lost a driver's license that required a Health Certificate when you applied? If so, keep in mind that your replacement license will have the same validity date as your lost license. Therefore, your replacement license will expire on the same date as the license you lost.
Longer validity period
Would you like your replacement driver's license to be valid longer than the one you lost? Then you can apply for a Health Declaration. CBR will then reassess whether and for what period of time you may participate in traffic.
