Beyond that of gasoline and diesel, it is necessary to face another periodic expense among those who have a vehicle: the Tax on Mechanical Traction Vehicles (IVTM).
Known in colloquial language as the circulation tax, the IVTM is a mandatory tax for all those vehicles that appear on the circulation permit and that, as such, have permission to circulate on public roads throughout the country.
However, there are some cases that are exempt from paying this tax. These are, specifically, official vehicles, those of diplomatic representatives, those of the health service, those intended for people with reduced mobility (degree equal to or greater than 33%), urban public transport with more than nine seats (including that of the driver ) and machinery with an Agricultural Inspection Card.
This payment must be made by the owner of the vehicle, whether a natural or legal person. Your payment must be made in the municipality where the vehicle has its fiscal address. In addition, the address must coincide with the municipality in which its owner is registered. In case you have any doubts, you can consult the fiscal domicile of the vehicles from the application of the General Directorate of Traffic (DGT), miDGT. Also, in the personal area of the , through the cl@ve certificate or credentials.

In the event that the owner has recently moved house, and in order not to disobey fiscal obligations, Traffic recommends requesting the fiscal change of your vehicles within 15 days so that the updated data is registered in the new municipality of home.
This change can be requested in person at the town hall offices if the consistory has a relationship with the DGT; if not, it is time to carry out the management directly with Traffic, through its Electronic Office, by telephone or by means of a face-to-face appointment.
When and how is it paid?
Unlike the registration tax, which is only paid at the time of purchase, the circulation tax is annual, so it must be paid every year.
Since its competence belongs to the municipalities, they are the ones who set the dates to pay the fee. In general, most stipulate their dates between the months of March, April and May, while others postpone it until the months of September and October.

In any case, municipalities usually send a letter by mail informing drivers of the voluntary dates. If this is not the case, it is recommended to check the date with the corresponding town hall.
In addition, these letters detail where the payment should be made. In general, it must be done in certain bank offices, through the Internet or by phone. In addition, many municipalities allow direct debit so as not to forget your payment.
How much is paid?
The road tax varies depending on each model. Thus, the type of vehicle, the date of registration, the type of fuel or the version influence its price. On the DieselyGasolina.com website you can get an approximate idea of what you can see.
According to article 95 of the , the tax on passenger cars is required according to the following rates:
– Less than 8 fiscal horses: 12.62 euros.
– From 8 to 11.99 fiscal horses: 34.08 euros.
– From 12 to 15.99 fiscal horses: 71.94 euros.
– From 16 to 19.99 fiscal horses: 89.61 euros.
– From 20 fiscal horses onwards: 112 euros.
However, and according to the legislation, “City councils may increase the quotas set by applying a coefficient to them, which may not exceed 2.” This means that variations of up to 100% can occur.
For this reason, and just as it is recommended to check the dates in each municipality, it is advisable to consult the stipulated rates in each town hall.
