How to Notify the Sale of Your Vehicle to the Baltar Town Hall: Downloadable Template

If you have recently sold your vehicle in Spain, it is a common mistake to think that notifying the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico) is enough. To avoid being charged the annual circulation tax (IVTM - Impuesto sobre Vehículos de Tracción Mecánica) in the municipality of Baltar, you must formally notify the local Town Hall that you are no longer the owner. This template will help you communicate this change effectively to ensure you are not held liable for future taxes.

Instructions on how and where to submit it in Baltar

Once you have filled out the template below, you must submit it to the Baltar Town Hall (Concello de Baltar). You have two primary ways to do this:

• In-Person: Visit the Town Hall registry office (Registro General) with your ID (DNI/NIE) and a copy of the sales contract. Ensure you get a stamped copy of your submission as proof.
• Online: If you possess a digital certificate (Certificado Digital) or Cl@ve, you can submit the document via the official electronic office (Sede Electrónica) of the Concello de Baltar if available, or via the "Registro Electrónico Común" (REC) provided by the Spanish government.

Additional documentation required

To ensure your request is processed without delays, you must attach the following documents to the template:

• Copy of the DNI/NIE: A clear photocopy of the seller's identification document.
• Proof of Sale: A copy of the signed "Contrato de Compraventa" (Sales Contract).
• DGT Transfer Proof: The "Permiso de Circulación" showing the new owner's details, or the official "Informe de Vehículo" from the DGT confirming the change of ownership.

Expert Tip: Always keep a scanned copy of the stamped document you receive from the Town Hall registry. If you receive a tax bill for the following year due to an administrative delay, this stamped document will be your legal evidence to cancel the debt immediately. Never skip this step, as the DGT and Town Halls do not always synchronize their databases automatically in real-time.
