Registering Your LHD Vehicle in Spain
At MY LHD CAR, we bridge the gap between UK/EU sourcing and Spanish legality. Whether you are relocating permanently or need a car for your holiday home, we manage the entire Matriculación process.
UK Post-Brexit Imports (DUA)
Importing a UK-registered car to Spain now requires specialized customs knowledge:
- Customs (DUA): We handle the import declaration and IVA (VAT) processing.
- Tax Exemptions: If you've owned your UK car for 6+ months and are moving residency, we can often secure 100% tax exemption.
- Technical: We source the necessary Certificate of Conformity or Ficha Técnica for the ITV.
EU Car Registration (FR, DE, BE)
Registering a car from France, Germany, or other EU countries is streamlined through our service:
- Matriculación Tax: Calculated via Modelo 576 based on 2026 CO2 emission brackets.
- Sourcing: We can find your perfect LHD in the EU and deliver it directly to Spain on Spanish plates.
- ITV Management: We book and manage the technical inspection for you.

Required Documents for Spain
To register your vehicle, you will need to provide:
- NIE / TIE: Your Spanish Foreigner ID or Residency Card.
- Empadronamiento: Proof of address from your local Town Hall (issued within last 3 months).
- Ownership: Original V5C (UK) or Titre de Circulation (FR) etc.
- Sales Invoice: Or a Bill of Sale if buying from a private individual.
Why Use a Professional Gestor?
Spanish bureaucracy is famously complex. By using MY LHD, you avoid:
- Incorrect Tax Filings: Avoiding heavy fines from the Agencia Tributaria.
- ITV Rejections: We ensure your vehicle meets Spanish technical standards first.
- Customs Delays: Post-Brexit UK imports are frequently held at ports without the correct DUA paperwork.
