When providing a discretionary public passenger transport service at the wheel of a bus, is any specific administrative authorization required in addition to the vehicle registration certificate?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

To carry out public passenger transport, and therefore discretionary transport by bus, a public transport authorization that entitles you to do so is required (Land Transport Organization Act (LOTT), Article 42(1)), in addition to the vehicle's documents: the vehicle registration certificate, a valid roadworthiness test (ITV) and compulsory insurance. The transport card is no longer required: Royal Decree 70/2019 abolished it as a supporting document. The complementary intermodal transport authorization is not the one the law requires for this service, and the vehicle registration certificate and the ITV are not enough.
