Modifications are those services that require the legalization of entries on the TITV Cards resulting from a vehicle transformation, whether administrative and/or physical, as well as the generation of a new TITV Card due to a duplicate issuance or for vehicle registration in Spain.

Different types of services:

Tow bar

Tow bars for trailers are towing coupling devices installed on vehicles to tow another trailer-type vehicle. The installation of the device requires its legalization on the TITV Card. When both the device and the location are approved, the documentation to be provided for legalization is less, and it is not necessary to provide a technical project or a certificate of completion.

Change of classification: from mixed-use to passenger car

The change of classification from mixed-use to passenger car consists of changing the use of the vehicle, from use for transporting people and goods to exclusive transport of people, also varying the frequency of periodic inspections. This process depends on the vehicle's own documentation and is related to the registration date.

Change of classification from mixed-use to passenger car as a note: most vehicles registered from 2011 onwards

The change of classification, when the TITV Card indicates category M1 in field J and the vehicle has not undergone any previous reform, will be carried out as an administrative procedure. This means that a conformity report is not required.

Change of classification from mixed-use to passenger car as a reform: vehicles registered before 2011 and after 2011 without category data and/or previous reforms

The change of classification in all other cases (when the vehicle category is not indicated in the documentation or when it is indicated but there is a previous legalized reform on the TITV Card) requires the submission of a conformity report, issued by the vehicle manufacturer or by a technical service for reforms.

Changes of service

Change of service is the change of use for which the vehicle is intended. These include: private use to public use, private use to rental with or without driver, private use to taxi use, etc., as well as reverse changes.

Pre-registration inspections

Pre-registration inspections are inspections carried out on vehicles, in compliance with RD 750/2010 and Section V of the ITV Station Inspection Procedure Manual, for the issuance of a TITV Card to allow registration in Spain.

TITV Card duplicate

This procedure consists of issuing a new TITV Card due to the loss or deterioration of the current TITV Card, or due to a change in provincial registration, etc. In the event that the TITV Card is electronic (printed on ordinary paper including a barcode), the duplicate request must be managed at a Provincial Traffic Headquarters office.

Major modifications

Major modifications are transformations carried out on vehicles after they have been put into circulation that affect the vehicle's regulatory homologation acts. A modification is understood as any change, substitution, action, incorporation, or removal performed on a vehicle that changes the characteristics by which a vehicle can be defined, affecting applicable regulatory acts and the requirements contained in Directives 2002/24/EC, 2003/37/EC, and 2007/46/EC. The processing of modifications is defined by RD 866/2010 and the Modifications Manual published by the Ministry of Industry.

The most common modifications are:

Any other document available for the service, different from the documents described above.

Modification accreditation document, certifying that the vehicle is suitable for the transformation. This document is issued by the vehicle manufacturer or an authorized technical service (laboratory)

The Vehicle Technical Record (TITV Card) is the document that identifies the vehicle and contains the technical data
