How to Authorize Someone Else to Pass the ITV in Torredelcampo: Free Word/PDF Template

Heading to the ITV (Inspección Técnica de Vehículos) but unable to drive your car there yourself? In Spain, the vehicle owner does not necessarily have to be the person who drives the vehicle to the inspection station. However, if you send a family member, friend, or a trusted representative, the ITV station will legally require a signed authorization document to prove that the driver has your explicit consent. This practical guide explains how the process works and provides a ready-to-use template tailored for residents in Torredelcampo.

Instructions on how and where to submit it in Torredelcampo

Torredelcampo does not have its own permanent ITV inspection station directly within the municipal boundaries, but local drivers typically use the nearby ITV stations located in Jaén (the provincial capital, just a short drive away via the A-316) or Martos. No matter which station you choose within Andalusia, the procedure is straightforward:

• Fill out the authorization letter with both the vehicle owner's and the authorized driver's personal details.
• Sign the document (both parties should ideally sign, or at least the owner must sign and provide a copy of their ID).
• Hand over the physical authorization letter to the ITV station personnel at the administration counter along with the mandatory vehicle documents.

Additional documentation required

When your authorized representative arrives at the ITV station near Torredelcampo, presenting the authorization letter alone is not enough. They must also carry the following mandatory documents in physical format:

• Permiso de Circulación (Vehicle Registration Certificate).
• Tarjeta de Inspección Técnica de Vehículos (The ITV technical sheet, often called the "green card").
• Proof of valid compulsory vehicle insurance (Recibo del seguro en vigor), which can sometimes be verified digitally by the station, but it is always safer to carry it.
• Valid ID (DNI, NIE, or Passport) of the authorized person to prove their identity matches the authorization letter.
• A photocopy of the vehicle owner's DNI/NIE (some strict stations request this alongside the original signature).

As an expert tip, always ensure that your vehicle's mandatory insurance is fully up to date and that you have paid any pending municipal vehicle taxes (IVTM) in Torredelcampo, as automated checks at the ITV line can occasionally flag administrative blocks that prevent a favorable inspection result.
