INFORMATION NEEDED

We carry out vehicle ownership changes electronically with DGT without the need to make an appointment.
In order to make the name change we require the following documentation:
In case that the buyer or seller is a company:
Common doubts:
  • When the buyer's address does not coincide with the NIF or NIE one, the registration certificate, with an issue date of less than one year, must be provided.
  • It is necessary that the Tax on Mechanical Traction Vehicles (Municipal Tax on Vehicles) of the previous year is paid.
  • We take care of paying the Patrimonial Transfer Tax (ITP) on your behalf. If the vehicle is less than 10 years old and / or the buyer is not registered in Catalonia, they will have to pay the Property Transfer Tax which will depend on the technical data of the vehicle itself and of the Autonomous Community where the vehicle is registered.
  • In order to transfer a vehicle that has a reservation of title, the original cancellation letter from the finance company is necessary to certify that the loan is canceled.
  • In case of transfer due to death, the original inheritance acceptance and adjudication deed is required, stating the vehicle and the settlement of the inheritance tax, being exempt from paying ITP.
  • Si el vendedor es una empresa el contrato de compraventa se sustituye por una factura sujeta a IVA en la que se indica la matrícula del vehículo. Cuando el transmitente sea una persona física profesional y aporte factura, habrá que aportar el certificado de IAE del año actual. Dicho certificado se obtiene a través del siguiente enlace (con certificado digital). www.agenciatributaria.es. No pagará ITP, puesto que está sujeto a IVA.
  • In adjudications for separation or divorce we must provide a divorce decree. In this case, you will be exempt from paying ITP.
