What is DGT Modelo 01 — Vehicle procedures?

Modelo 01 (Trámites de vehículos) is the form the Spanish traffic authority, the Dirección General de Tráfico (DGT), uses at its offices for most procedures on a vehicle other than a change of owner. It covers a duplicate of the registration certificate (permiso de circulación) after loss, damage or theft, or because the address, the keeper's name or the technical data changed; a vehicle report (informe) for up to eight plates; temporary or final deregistration (baja); re-registration after a temporary baja; registration (ordinary or historic); a temporary permit; rehabilitation; and naming the vehicle's habitual driver. The current edition is MOD. 01/2025-08-ES.

It asks for the vehicle's plate, first registration date and chassis number, the vehicle's address (the keeper's padrón address), the applicant's details and the procedure. The form notes that the DGT checks your padrón registration and IAE electronically.

FileIt explains every box of Modelo 01 in English, checks NIF, NIE and CIF numbers, and prints your answers neatly onto the DGT's official PDF, including names with letters such as ł, ș or ü. The finished form is saved in your FileIt vault. FileIt does not submit anything to the DGT and does not pay the fee: you print the form and take it to a Jefatura de Tráfico, where you sign it.

  6. Other information, place and date (Otros · En ___, a __ de ___ de ___)Applicant

How to fill out DGT Modelo 01 — Vehicle procedures, step by step

1 Datos del vehículo (vehicle)

The registration number, the date of first registration (dd/mm/yyyy) and the chassis number or NIVE.

2 Domicilio del vehículo (vehicle address)

The address where the keeper is registered on the padrón: street type and name, number, block, entrance, staircase, floor, door, kilometre point, postcode, province, municipality and locality.

3 Datos del interesado (applicant)

Your NIF, NIE or CIF, date of birth, phone, name or company name, surnames and email. A company has no date of birth or surnames.

4 Seleccione el trámite (procedure)

Tick one procedure and its option: the reason for a duplicate; the plates for a report; the kind of baja (temporary: voluntary, theft, end of lease; final: voluntary, export, transfer to another EU country); the reason a temporary baja ends; ordinary or historic registration with the service code; the kind of temporary permit; or rehabilitation.

5 Notificación de conductor habitual (habitual driver)

Optional: the NIF or NIE and full name of the person who usually drives the vehicle. They sign the form too.

6 Otros, lugar y fecha (other, place and date)

Anything else the office should know, such as a police report number after a theft, then the place and date. You sign at the office.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Using Modelo 01 for a change of owner. That is Modelo 02.
  • Putting two procedures on one form. The instructions ask for one application per procedure.
  • Giving an address that isn't the keeper's padrón address.
  • Forgetting the fee, or the habitual driver's signature when you name one.

After you fill it out

Print the PDF from your FileIt vault and take it to a Jefatura de Tráfico with your ID, the fee paid and the documents for your procedure.

Sign it there by hand, with the habitual driver if you named one.

Keep the form, the receipt and the new documents in your FileIt vault next to the vehicle.

What is DGT Modelo 01?

It is the DGT's application form for vehicle procedures other than a change of owner: duplicate registration certificate, vehicle report, temporary or final baja, re-registration, registration, temporary permit, rehabilitation and habitual driver.

Can I fill in Modelo 01 online?

Yes. FileIt lets you fill it in online free and prints your answers into the DGT's official PDF. You still take it to a Jefatura de Tráfico and sign it there. Many vehicle procedures can also be done on the DGT's Sede Electrónica.

Which form do I use to sell a car?

A change of ownership or notice of sale uses Modelo 02, not Modelo 01.

What service code should I choose?

Page 2 of the form lists the codes of Orden PRE/52/2010. Most private cars are B-00 (private, not specified).

Is there an English version?

The form is in Spanish. FileIt shows every question in English with the Spanish term in brackets.
