We are waiting for the new ‘Reglamento de Trafico’ to be approved. Until there are any changes, the limit is 6 months. For non-residents, residents must change to Spanish plates within 30 days, 60 days max if they import the vehicle as part of household goods and get the necessary paperwork from the Agencia Tributaria.
