Anotación de cambio en características que no aparecen reflejadas en el permiso de circulación

If there has been a change in a vehicle's characteristics, but these characteristics are not reflected in any section of the vehicle registration document—for example, a change in the vehicle type (multi-purpose, adaptable, etc.)—you must request that the change be recorded at the DGT (Spanish Directorate General of Traffic). Since this information is not included in the vehicle registration document, it will not be renewed.

Before completing the process, you must go to an ITV station to have the change checked and authorized, and to have the new information recorded on the vehicle's ITV form.

If the vehicle characteristics that have been modified are reflected in the registration certificate, or if it is a change of vehicle service or in the owner's data (name, surname, company name) you must carry out the procedure of  Renewal of the Registration Certificate due to important modification, change of service or data .

The registration of changes in characteristics that are not reflected in the vehicle registration certificate must be done by  the owner of the vehicle  or any person authorized on their behalf.

To carry out the authorization, You can appoint a representative through our  Power of Attorney Registry , selecting the procedure "Duplicate due to change of data, service, important reforms or change from historical to ordinary", which is within the "Vehicles" category .

If your representative is going to carry out the procedure in person, as an alternative to using the register of powers of attorney, they may appear with a  DGT authorization form “Granting of representation”  signed by the interested party, where they authorize them to make the request, and it is stated that it is free of charge.

Remember that, when requesting the appointment, you must indicate both the ID of the interested party and that of the authorized person who will carry out the procedure on your behalf.

Please note that in-person service is reserved exclusively for individuals. Businesses and legal entities will not be served in our offices, as they must complete their procedures electronically.
