How to Temporarily De-register Your Vehicle in Perafort: Official Template (Word/PDF)
If you own a vehicle in Perafort that you are not currently using—perhaps due to a long-term repair, a seasonal stay, or economic reasons—you can temporarily de-register it with the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico). This legal process allows you to stop paying circulation taxes (IVTM) and exempts you from the obligation of having an active ITV (technical inspection) or insurance, provided the vehicle remains off public roads. This guide provides you with the necessary template to initiate this procedure officially.
Instructions on how and where to submit it in Perafort
Since the DGT has digitized most of its processes, you have two primary ways to submit your request:
- Online: This is the fastest method. You can use your digital certificate, Cl@ve PIN, or DNIe via the official DGT website ("Sede Electrónica").
- In-Person: If you prefer to visit a physical office, you must schedule an appointment ("Cita Previa") at the DGT Provincial Headquarters in Tarragona, which serves the Perafort area.
- Important Note: Ensure you have the original documentation of the vehicle. If you are submitting a physical form, it must be filled out in Spanish as required by Spanish administrative law.

Additional documentation required
To successfully process your temporary de-registration, you must accompany the template with the following documents:
- Proof of Identity: Your valid DNI, NIE, or Passport.
- Vehicle Documentation: The original Vehicle Registration Certificate ("Permiso de Circulación").
- Proof of Payment: You must pay the official DGT fee (Tasa 4.1) for temporary de-registration. This can be paid online via the DGT website before completing the request.
- Authorization (if applicable): If you are acting on behalf of someone else, you must provide a signed authorization document and a copy of the owner's identification.
As an expert consultant, my final piece of advice is to verify your status with the Perafort Town Hall ("Ayuntamiento") once the DGT confirms the de-registration. While the DGT notifies the municipality automatically, checking that the "Impuesto sobre Vehículos de Tracción Mecánica" (IVTM) has been suspended will save you from potential tax collection errors. Always keep a stamped copy of your request for your personal records until the status change is reflected in your "Informe de Vehículo" from the DGT.
