Instructions on how and where to submit it in Alagon

Additional documentation required
Submitting the application letter is only the first step. To successfully obtain your Spanish license plates, you must attach the following to your file:
- Proof of Identity: Original and copy of your DNI, NIE, or Passport.
- Vehicle Documentation: Original "Ficha Técnica" (Spanish ITV inspection card) proving the vehicle has passed the technical inspection in Spain.
- Tax Compliance: Proof of payment or exemption for the "Impuesto de Matriculación" (Model 576) and "Impuesto de Circulación" (IVTM) paid at the Alagón Town Hall.
- Proof of Purchase: Original invoice or bill of sale (if the vehicle was recently purchased).
- DGT Fees: Proof of payment of the official DGT registration fee (Tasa 1.1).
Expert Tip: Always ensure your vehicle has passed the ITV (Inspección Técnica de Vehículos) in Spain before attempting to register it. If your car is older than 4 years, it will definitely require this inspection. Furthermore, check if your vehicle is exempt from the Registration Tax (Model 576) due to "cambio de residencia," as this can save you a significant amount of money if you are moving to Spain permanently.
