Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Periodic roadworthiness tests (ITV) of trucks are governed by time, not by kilometers or by the driver. Royal Decree 920/2017 (Article 6(1)) sets the frequency according to the category of the vehicle and its age, counted from first registration: for example, trucks of more than 3.5 tonnes pass it every year until they are 10 years old and every six months from then on. Accumulated kilometers play no part in those periods, nor does the age of the regular driver.
