We quote you everything you want to know to take advantage of the new data but also to avoid unnecessary problems.

If you are late…
According to the legislation, for renewals of marketing licenses that will take place after Saturday 11/3/2017, the sum of the amount of 10 euros and an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the license will be imposed as a charge on the marketing license corresponding to the amount due for the current year.

Those who do not intend to renew the licenses
It is reminded and emphasized that those who had renewed the registration of their vehicle in 2016 but do not intend to renew it for 2017 should submit to the Road Transport Department an application for immobilization of the vehicle, by completing the form TOM 12.
