How to Notify the Zurbano Town Hall of a Vehicle Sale: Downloadable Template
If you have recently sold your vehicle, you are likely aware of the need to notify the DGT (Directorate-General for Traffic). However, many sellers forget a crucial step: notifying the local Town Hall (Ayuntamiento) of Zurbano. This notification is essential to stop the accrual of the "Impuesto sobre Vehículos de Tracción Mecánica" (IVTM), commonly known as the "road tax," ensuring that you are not held liable for future tax bills once the car is no longer in your possession.
Instructions on how and where to submit your notification in Zurbano
To ensure your notification is processed correctly by the Zurbano municipal administration, follow these steps:
- Prepare the document: Complete the template provided below with your personal details and the vehicle's information.
- In-person submission: You can take the signed document to the Zurbano Town Hall (Ayuntamiento) registry office. Ensure you bring your DNI or NIE.
- Electronic submission: If you have a Digital Certificate or Cl@ve PIN, check the official Zurbano municipal website for their electronic registry (Sede Electrónica) to submit the document online, which is the fastest method.
- Request a receipt: Always ask for a "sello de entrada" (entry stamp) or a digital confirmation number. This serves as your legal proof that you have fulfilled your obligation.

Additional documentation required
When submitting your notification, you must attach copies of the following documents to support your claim:
- DNI or NIE: A photocopy of your national identity card or foreign identity number.
- Transfer document: A copy of the "Permiso de Circulación" showing the new owner's details, or the official "Informe de Vehículos" issued by the DGT confirming the change of ownership.
- Proof of sale: A copy of the private sales contract (Contrato de Compraventa) if available, showing the date of the transaction.
Expert Tip: Do not rely solely on the buyer to process the transfer of ownership at the DGT. Always perform a "Notificación de Venta" through the DGT portal immediately after the sale. Combining this with the notification to the Zurbano Town Hall provides you with full legal protection against traffic fines and tax liabilities that may occur after the vehicle has left your hands. Keep all stamped copies of your paperwork in a dedicated folder for at least four years.
