These are the DGT procedures you can carry out online

The pandemic we have suffered seems to have boosted and encouraged the use of online procedures. Whether out of the need for lockdown and self-protection, or for the convenience of accessing a repository of tasks to be done, the range of tasks virtually available to internet users has opened up, among which it is worth noting that DGT procedures online are not new but are very wide-ranging and varied.

That is why it is worth knowing what traffic procedures can be carried out through an internet-connected device without needing to go to, for example, the corresponding Provincial Traffic Office, simply by accessing the services portal that can be used from the DGT Electronic Headquarters.

Driving licence

Through the services portal it is possible to make enquiries about the driving licence, whether you already hold one, if it has been withdrawn, or if you are in the process of obtaining one, such as:

• Points enquiry
• Request for points certificate
• Points recovery courses
• Duplicate driving licence
• Application for international permit
• Application for exchange
• Status of my driving licence application
• Change of address for notifications
• Application for exam aptitude test
• Exam tests
• Application for transfer of exam file
• Application for cancellation of exam appointment
• Exam results enquiry

Vehicles:

If the driving licence is necessary to drive, the vehicles used for transport, of whatever kind, also have their own section and procedures that the DGT allows online, such as:

• Application for vehicle transfers
• Application for registration, temporary deregistration and permanent deregistration
• Application for ordinary registration and green plates
• Duplicate of your vehicle documentation
• Vehicle report
• Application for change of a vehicle’s tax domicile
• Notification of the habitual driver
• Check your vehicle’s environmental badge

Fines

And if the DGT allows online procedures regarding drivers and vehicles, naturally also regarding the penalties imposed on them.

• Payment of fines
• Application for refund of fine payments
• Submission of claims or appeals
• Identification of the driver who was driving a fined vehicle
• Enquiry about a fine whose offender could not be located

Other procedures

In the catch-all section of DGT procedures that can be carried out online, the following are available:

• Payment of fees
• Application for refund of fee payments
• Request for an appointment
• Electronic Road Address – DEV – Electronic notification
• Submission of documents and communications
• Authorisations: representation for procedures through the Register of Authorised Representatives
