Download Free Word/PDF Template to Register a Foreign Vehicle in Campo
If you have moved to Spain or purchased a vehicle abroad, registering it in Spain is a mandatory legal step if you intend to drive it regularly. For residents and property owners in the picturesque municipality of Campo (Huesca), navigating this complex bureaucratic process can seem daunting. To make your life easier, we provide a complete, legally compliant application template designed to help you streamline the registration of a foreign vehicle.
Instructions on how and where to submit it in Campo
To successfully register your foreign vehicle while based in Campo, you will need to deal primarily with the Provincial Traffic Headquarters (Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico), though local steps such as paying municipal vehicle taxes are handled closer to home. Here is how to proceed:
- Local Town Hall (Ayuntamiento de Campo): Before heading to traffic authorities, you must settle the Impuesto sobre Vehículos de Tracción Mecánica (IVTM) – the local road tax – at the Ayuntamiento de Campo.
- DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico): The official application must be submitted to the nearest Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico (usually Huesca or Zaragoza). You can submit it in person by booking an appointment (cita previa) on the official DGT website.
- Online Submission: If you possess a digital certificate (Certificado Digital) or Cl@ve, you can submit the entire application online through the DGT Electronic Office (Sede Electrónica), saving you a trip outside of Campo.
- The Registry (Registro General): Alternatively, you can present your paperwork at any official public registry office in Spain that relays documents to the General State Administration.

Additional documentation required
Simply filling out the template is not enough; the Spanish authorities require a robust dossier of supporting documents to ensure the vehicle meets EU standards. When preparing your submission from Campo, make sure you have the following ready:
- Proof of Identity: Valid DNI, NIE, or passport of the applicant. If registering under a company, the NIF of the company and deeds of incorporation are required.
- Vehicle Technical Sheet: Spanish ITV (Inspección Técnica de Vehículos) card. You must take the foreign car to an ITV station to obtain a Spanish technical sheet (ficha técnica).
- Proof of Ownership: Original purchase invoice or bill of sale (duly translated if not in Spanish/English), or the foreign registration certificate (both parts if applicable).
- Proof of Tax Payment: Receipt showing payment of the local IVTM at the Ayuntamiento de Campo, and proof of settlement or exemption for the Registration Tax (Impuesto de Matriculación - Modelo 565/576 via Agencia Tributaria) and VAT (Modelo 309/300 if applicable).
Expert Tip: Keep in mind strict deadlines apply once a foreign vehicle enters Spain. Generally, you have 30 days to register the vehicle after establishing residency or bringing the vehicle into the country to avoid penalties. Always ensure your foreign insurance policy covers you during the transition, or arrange temporary Spanish plates (placas verdes) if the original registration has already expired.
