Instructions on how and where to submit it in Altea
Because this is a private contract between two individuals, you do not need to submit it to the Altea Town Hall (Ayuntamiento de Altea) for the contract to be valid. However, you should follow these steps:
- Preparation: Fill out the template below with the personal details (DNI/NIE) of both parties.
- Signature: Both the landlord and the tenant must sign every page of the document.
- Registration: While optional, if you wish to give the document a "certified date" (fecha cierta), you can take it to a local Notary in Altea to have the signatures legitimized.
- Taxes: If you are the landlord, remember that income from parking rentals is subject to Personal Income Tax (IRPF) and must be declared in your annual tax return.

Additional documentation required
To ensure the process is transparent and legally sound, I recommend attaching the following documents to your signed contract:
- Photocopy of DNI/NIE: Both parties should exchange copies of their identification documents.
- Proof of Ownership (Nota Simple): As a tenant, ask the landlord for a recent "Nota Simple" from the Land Registry to confirm they are indeed the legal owner of the parking space.
- Community Rules: If the garage is part of a residential building, ask the landlord for a copy of the building's internal regulations regarding garage usage (e.g., prohibition of storing items, rules on electric vehicle charging).
- Payment Receipts: Always keep a digital or physical record of the bank transfers made for the monthly rent.
Expert Tip: If you are renting a space in high-demand areas of Altea, such as near the Old Town (Casco Antiguo) or the beach, ensure the contract specifies whether the rent includes "Gastos de Comunidad" (Community fees) or if those are to be paid separately. Always pay via bank transfer rather than cash to maintain a clear audit trail for tax purposes.
