Spain's Older Cars Require Biannual ITV Checks

Spain's DGT has classified vehicles over 10 years old as 'N' category, requiring biannual ITV inspections instead of annual checks.

The Dirección General de Tráfico (DGT) has implemented stricter inspection requirements for older vehicles in Spain. Cars over 10 years old, now categorized as 'N', must undergo ITV inspections every six months rather than annually.

The ITV (Inspección Técnica de Vehículos) remains mandatory for all vehicles to ensure road safety, with inspection frequency varying based on vehicle age, usage, and technical classification. forestarrow.help
