If you don’t have the sheet, here’s what to do
If you have lost the technical inspection certificate (ITV) of your car in Spain, you will need to obtain a duplicate copy. You can do this by following these steps:
- Contact the testing station where your car was last inspected. You can find the contact information on the sticker on your car’s windshield or by searching online.
- Provide the testing station with your car’s registration number and other identifying information. They will be able to retrieve your inspection record and issue a duplicate certificate.
- Pay the fee for the duplicate certificate. The cost of a duplicate certificate varies depending on the testing station, but it typically ranges from 15 to 25 euros.
- Once you have obtained the duplicate certificate, make sure to keep it in a safe place and carry it with you when you are driving your car in Spain.
If you have lost any other required documents for your car, such as the vehicle registration certificate or insurance certificate, you will need to contact the appropriate government agency or insurance company to obtain a duplicate copy. The process for obtaining duplicate copies of these documents may vary depending on your location and circumstances.
