This template provides a formal request letter (Solicitud) to initiate the registration process with the Spanish Traffic Authorities (DGT), ensuring your paperwork is presented in the correct professional format required for administrative processing.

Additional documentation required
Beyond the formal request, you must bring the following documents to your appointment:
- Proof of Identity: Original DNI, NIE, or Passport.
- Technical Documentation: The original vehicle registration document (Permiso de Circulación) from your country of origin and the Spanish ITV card.
- Proof of Ownership: Original invoice or purchase contract if you are the buyer.
- Tax Payments: Proof of payment or exemption for the Registration Tax (Model 576) and the local IVTM (Circulation Tax) paid at the Nuevo Baztan Town Hall.
- DGT Fee: Receipt of payment for the official DGT registration fee (Tasas de Tráfico).
Expert Tip: Always request a "Certificado de Empadronamiento" from the Nuevo Baztan Town Hall before starting the process, as you will need to prove your residency. If you are importing a car from outside the EU, the process is significantly more complex due to customs duties (DUA); in such cases, I highly recommend consulting a local "Gestoría" to avoid common pitfalls with customs clearance.
