Additional documentation required

When you submit your appeal, ensure you attach the following documents to support your case:

• A copy of your DNI/NIE or Passport.
• The original "Informe de Inspección" provided by the ITV station.
• Any evidence that supports your claim: repair invoices from a mechanic in Balaguer, photographs of the vehicle components, or technical reports from a qualified engineer.
• The official notification document (if you are appealing a fine).

Expert Tip: Always keep a stamped copy of your submission (or the electronic receipt if submitted online). If your vehicle was marked "Rechazada," please be aware that the vehicle is prohibited from driving on public roads except to travel directly to a repair shop or back to the ITV station. Do not risk driving an uncertified vehicle, as the fines in Spain are significant and could lead to the immobilization of your car.
