Steps to import a car in Murcia

1. 1

   Find a well-preserved vehicle

   The region's dry climate favors the condition of imported cars, an advantage compared with wetter areas further north.

2. 2

   Bring it in via the Port of Cartagena

   Cartagena lets you receive vehicles by sea without relying on overland transport from the rest of Europe.

3. 3

   Pass the import ITV inspection

   With only one provincial office, it's worth coordinating the ITV appointment with the DGT one to avoid duplicate trips.

4. 4

   Work out the national CO₂ bracket

   The registration tax applies the same as the rest of Spain before settling the regional ITP.

5. 5

   Pay the ITP (4%)

   A competitive rate, in line with Madrid and Andalusia, among the regions with the lightest tax load on second-hand vehicles.

6. 6

   Register at the DGT on Avda. Infante Juan Manuel

   With only one office for the whole region, book well in advance to avoid long waits.
