How to Appeal a Negative ITV Inspection in La Lastrilla: Downloadable Template
If your vehicle has received a "Desfavorable" (Unfavorable) or "Rechazada" (Rejected) result during its Technical Inspection (ITV) in Spain, you are facing a serious administrative situation. A "Desfavorable" result means your vehicle has defects that prevent it from circulating except to travel to a repair shop, while a "Rechazada" result means the vehicle is considered a danger and must be towed. If you believe the inspection results were incorrect or you need to formalize your disagreement with the station's report, this template will help you file an official appeal (alegaciones) to the DGT and the local industrial authority.
How and where to submit your appeal in La Lastrilla
Since La Lastrilla is located in the province of Segovia, your administrative process will involve the regional authorities for Industry (who oversee ITV stations) and the DGT if you have been fined for circulating with an expired or failed inspection. Follow these steps:
- Step 1: Complete the template below with your personal and vehicle details.
- Step 2: Visit the official "Sede Electrónica" of the Junta de Castilla y León to submit your claim regarding the technical inspection failure.
- Step 3: If you are appealing a fine issued by the DGT for driving with an unfavorable ITV, you must submit the document via the DGT website (using your Cl@ve or Digital Certificate) or in person at the Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico in Segovia.
- Step 4: Ensure you keep a "Registro de Entrada" (receipt of submission) for your records.

Additional documentation required
To ensure your appeal is processed correctly, you must attach the following documents to your submission:
- A copy of your DNI, NIE, or Passport.
- The original "Informe de Inspección" (the document provided by the ITV station showing the defects).
- Repair invoices or technical reports from your mechanic (if you are disputing the existence of the defects).
- Photographs of the vehicle components if the dispute involves visible parts.
- Proof of payment of the inspection fee (if applicable).
Expert Tip: Always remember that an "Unfavorable" ITV result grants you a maximum of two months to repair the vehicle and return to the same station for a re-inspection. Do not drive the vehicle for any purpose other than going to the repair shop and the ITV station, as the DGT has automated cameras that can issue fines even if your car is parked on a public street. If you feel the station is acting unfairly, requesting a second opinion at a different ITV station is often faster than a formal legal appeal.
