How to Authorize Someone Else to Pass Your ITV Inspection in Alburquerque: Free Template Download

If you own a vehicle in Spain, you know the ITV (Inspección Técnica de Vehículos) is mandatory. However, you don't always have to be the one to drive the car to the inspection station. If you are busy or unable to attend, you can authorize a friend, family member, or mechanic to take your vehicle for you. This document acts as a formal permit to ensure the ITV station accepts the representative on your behalf.

Instructions on how and where to submit it in Alburquerque

In the area of Alburquerque (Badajoz), you will likely be visiting the nearest ITV station (often operated by VEICASA or similar regional contractors). To use this authorization, follow these steps:

• Download and print the template provided below.
• Fill in the details for both the vehicle owner (the authorizing party) and the person taking the car (the authorized party).

• Ensure the person going to the station also has the vehicle's "Permiso de Circulación" and the "Ficha Técnica" (the original documents, not copies).

Additional documentation required

When your representative arrives at the ITV station in or near Alburquerque, they must present the following documents to the inspector:

• The original "Permiso de Circulación" (Vehicle Registration Certificate).
• The "Tarjeta de Inspección Técnica" (the green card containing all technical specifications).
• The signed authorization document provided above.
• The representative’s valid DNI, NIE, or Passport to verify their identity.
• Proof of current vehicle insurance (though this is often checked electronically via the DGT database, it is safer to have a copy of the receipt).

Expert Tip: Always double-check that your vehicle insurance is active before heading to the ITV. If the vehicle's insurance status does not appear in the official DGT database, the ITV station may refuse to perform the inspection, regardless of who is driving the car. Additionally, verify if your specific ITV station requires a prior appointment (cita previa), which is standard practice in Extremadura.
