How to Obtain Temporary Green License Plates (Placas Verdes) in Moraleja: Downloadable Template

If you have recently purchased a vehicle abroad or need to move a car that lacks permanent Spanish registration, you will need to obtain "Placas Verdes" (Green Plates). These are temporary license plates issued by the Spanish Traffic Department (DGT) that allow you to circulate legally while you complete the final registration process. This guide provides the necessary information and the official template you need to start your application in Moraleja.

Instructions on how and where to submit it in Moraleja

To process your request, you must interact with the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico). While Moraleja does not have a large provincial headquarters, you have two primary options:

Online via the DGT Electronic Office: This is the fastest method. You will need a digital certificate or Cl@ve PIN to access the DGT website.
In-Person Appointment: You must schedule an appointment ("Cita Previa") at the nearest Jefatura Provincial de Tráfico (usually Cáceres or Badajoz). Ensure you have all documentation printed and ready.

Once you submit your application and pay the corresponding fees, the DGT will authorize the issuance of the plates. You can then take this authorization to an approved license plate manufacturer to have your physical green plates created.

To ensure your application is not rejected, you must attach the following documents to your request:

Proof of Identity: A copy of your DNI, NIE, or Passport.
Proof of Ownership: The original purchase invoice or the foreign registration document (Permiso de Circulación).
Technical Data Sheet: The "Ficha Técnica" of the vehicle, if available, or the foreign equivalent.

Insurance Proof: Evidence that you have taken out temporary insurance coverage for the vehicle.

Expert Tip: Always double-check that your vehicle's VIN number matches exactly between the purchase contract and the technical documents. Even a single digit error can cause significant delays in the DGT system. If you are handling this process for the first time, consider hiring a "Gestoría" in Moraleja; they can handle the administrative burden for a small fee, ensuring your paperwork is perfect before it reaches the authorities.
