Download Free Bilingual Purchase Contract Template for Importing a Car from Germany to Castejón de Sos (Word/PDF)

Importing a vehicle from Germany to Spain is a popular way to acquire a high-quality car at a competitive price, but the administrative and legal transition requires absolute precision. Whether you are bringing your German vehicle to the breathtaking Pyrenean municipality of Castejón de Sos for personal use or resale, you need a bulletproof, legally binding agreement. This guide provides a specialized bilingual purchase contract (Spanish/English) designed to protect both the buyer and the seller, ensuring compliance with European Union cross-border vehicle transactions.

Instructions on how and where to submit it in Castejón de Sos

While a private vehicle purchase contract does not get submitted directly to a town hall, it serves as the foundational legal document required by multiple Spanish authorities to register your imported German vehicle. Once you have signed the template below and brought the car to Castejón de Sos, you must complete the following bureaucratic steps:

• ITV (Inspección Técnica de Vehículos): Take the car and the original German registration documents (Zulassungsbescheinigung Teil I and II) to the nearest ITV station to obtain a Spanish technical inspection sheet (Ficha Técnica).
• Ayuntamiento de Castejón de Sos: Pay the local Road Tax (Impuesto sobre Vehículos de Tracción Mecánica - IVTM) at the municipal offices of Castejón de Sos. You will need your DNI/NIE, the technical sheet, and proof of residence.
• Hacienda (Agencia Tributaria): Settle the Registration Tax (Impuesto de Matriculación - Modelo 565/576) if applicable, and declare the acquisition (Modelo 309 or general VAT rules).
• DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico): Finally, present the contract, foreign papers, tax receipts, and ITV card at the Provincial Traffic Headquarters to obtain your definitive Spanish license plates.

Additional documentation required

To successfully register and legally drive your German import in Castejón de Sos, having the signed bilingual contract is only the first step. You must also gather and present the following paperwork:

• Zulassungsbescheinigung Teil I and Teil II: The original German vehicle registration documents (equivalent to the Spanish Permiso de Circulación and Ficha Técnica). Ensure the Teil II shows the transfer of ownership or includes a bill of sale trail.
• Certificate of Conformity (COC): Essential for European vehicles, detailing technical specs and homologation standards. If the car lacks a COC, you will need an authorized technical laboratory in Spain to issue a homologation sheet.
• Proof of Identity: Valid Spanish DNI/NIE or passport of the buyer residing in Castejón de Sos, plus empadronamiento certificate if requested.
• Purchase Invoice or Bill of Sale: The bilingual template provided above, or a commercial invoice if purchased from a German dealership (which may include VAT specifications).

Navigating cross-border vehicle bureaucracy can be complex, but using a properly drafted bilingual contract bridges the linguistic gap between German sellers and Spanish authorities. Always ensure that the VIN number on the physical chassis matches the German registration papers before finalizing any money transfer. Keep digital and physical copies of all receipts, as local authorities in Huesca and the DGT strictly enforce strict documentation standards for imported foreign assets.
