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

When you sell a vehicle in Spain, it is not enough to simply sign the contract with the buyer. To avoid being held liable for future municipal vehicle taxes (the Impuesto sobre Vehículos de Tracción Mecánica or IVTM) and potential parking fines, you must formally notify the local authorities. If you reside in Bellpuig, you need to inform the Town Hall that you are no longer the owner to ensure the tax liability is transferred or cancelled correctly.

Instructions on how and where to submit your notification in Bellpuig

The notification process in Bellpuig is straightforward but requires formal documentation. You can submit your notification through the following channels:

• In-person: Visit the Bellpuig Town Hall (Ajuntament de Bellpuig) at the OAC (Oficina d'Atenció Ciutadana). It is highly recommended to book an appointment (cita previa) beforehand.
• Online: If you possess a digital certificate or Cl@ve PIN, you can submit the document via the official Bellpuig Electronic Office (Seu Electrònica).
• By Mail: You may send the document via certified mail (correo administrativo) to the Town Hall address.

Additional documentation required

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

• A photocopy of your DNI, NIE, or Passport.
• A copy of the "Permiso de Circulación" (Vehicle Registration) showing the transfer or, at the very least, a copy of the signed "Contrato de Compraventa" (Sales Contract) clearly showing the date of the transaction.
• Proof of the notification sent to the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico), as this is the primary entity that updates the official vehicle registry.

Expert Tip: While the Town Hall manages the tax, the change of ownership must first be registered with the DGT. Always keep a stamped copy of your submission as proof that you notified the municipality. This document is your best defense if you receive a tax bill or a traffic fine for a vehicle that is no longer in your possession. If you are selling the car to a dealership, they usually handle this paperwork for you, but always request a copy of the transfer receipt for your records.
