How to Notify the Azuaga City Council of a Vehicle Sale: Downloadable Template
When you sell a vehicle in Spain, it is not enough to just sign a sales contract. To avoid future tax liabilities—specifically the IVTM (Impuesto sobre Vehículos de Tracción Mecánica), also known as the "road tax"—you must notify the local City Council. This document informs the Ayuntamiento de Azuaga that you are no longer the owner, preventing you from being billed for the next fiscal year. This guide provides a ready-to-use template to ensure your records are updated correctly.
Instructions on how and where to submit it in Azuaga
Once you have filled out the template below, you have two primary ways to submit it to the Azuaga City Council (Ayuntamiento de Azuaga):
- In-Person (Presencial): Visit the "Registro General" at the Town Hall (Plaza de la Merced). Ensure you bring your original ID (DNI/NIE) and the signed copy of the notification.
- Electronic Office (Sede Electrónica): If you possess a Digital Certificate or Cl@ve PIN, you can upload the signed document through the official Azuaga Sede Electrónica. This is the fastest and most recommended method.

Additional documentation required
To ensure your request is processed without delays, you must attach the following documents to your notification:
- Proof of Transfer: A copy of the "Permiso de Circulación" showing the new owner's details, or the "Informe de Vehículo" issued by the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico) confirming the change of ownership.
- Sales Contract: A copy of the "Contrato de Compraventa" signed by both parties.
- ID Copy: A clear photocopy of your DNI, NIE, or Passport.
Expert Tip: Always request a "sello de entrada" (entry stamp) if you submit the document in person. This is your legal proof that you fulfilled your duty to notify the authorities. If you are selling the car, do not hand over the keys until the transfer is officially reflected in the DGT records, as this is the safest way to protect yourself from potential fines or legal issues involving the vehicle after the sale.
