Bringing your car or motorcycle to Spain can be a great option, especially if you are relocating or spending more time at your Costa del Sol property. However, registering a foreign vehicle in Spain and obtaining Spanish number plates can involve several administrative steps.

If you are importing a vehicle from another EU country, the process normally includes proving ownership, obtaining the appropriate Spanish ITV documentation, dealing with the relevant taxes and completing the final registration with the Dirección General de Tráfico (DGT).

Let Enova Estates Handle the DGT Registration

At Enova Estates, our service continues long after you have purchased your property. Vehicle registration and DGT assistance is one of the after-sales services we provide to our clients.

We can assist with registering your foreign car or motorcycle in Spain, coordinating the necessary paperwork and registration process so that your vehicle can receive its Spanish registration and number plates.

This service is particularly useful for international property owners and residents in Manilva, La Duquesa, Sabinillas, Casares, Estepona and Sotogrande, on the western Costa del Sol.

Once the registration is completed, your vehicle will have its Spanish registration number and Permiso de Circulación. Spanish-registered vehicles must also have the appropriate ITV documentation and valid compulsory insurance before being driven legally.

Avoid unnecessary paperwork, appointments and language difficulties. Contact Enova Estates and let us help you get your car or motorcycle registered with the DGT and onto Spanish plates.
