How to Register a Foreign Vehicle in Vilallonga Del Camp: Downloadable Template
If you have recently moved to Vilallonga Del Camp and brought your vehicle with you, you are legally required to register it in Spain if you become a resident. This process, known as Matriculación de Vehículo, involves re-registering your foreign-plated car to obtain Spanish license plates. This guide provides the necessary legal template to initiate the process with the Spanish authorities.
Instructions on how and where to submit it in Vilallonga Del Camp
To register your vehicle, you must interact with the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico). Since there is no DGT office directly in Vilallonga Del Camp, you have two primary options:
- Online: You can submit the request via the official DGT Electronic Headquarters (Sede Electrónica) if you possess a Digital Certificate or Cl@ve PIN.
- In-person: You must visit the nearest Provincial Traffic Headquarters (Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico) in Tarragona. It is strictly required to book an appointment (cita previa) online before attending.
Before submitting, ensure you have paid the "Impuesto de Matriculación" at the Tax Agency (Agencia Tributaria) and the "Impuesto de Circulación" at the Vilallonga Del Camp Town Hall (Ayuntamiento).

Expert Tip: The bureaucratic process for vehicle registration in Spain can be complex, especially regarding the ITV inspection for non-EU vehicles. If you find the paperwork overwhelming, many residents in the Tarragona area opt to hire a "Gestoría." A gestor is a professional administrative agent who can handle the entire submission process for you, ensuring your documents are perfectly in order to avoid delays at the Jefatura de Tráfico.
