In Brief

Spain's DGT has updated regulations for motorhomes and campers, introducing new technical inspection intervals, clarifying parking rules, and adding a sign for waste disposal points.

Spain's General Directorate of Traffic (DGT) has published a new instruction regulating the use of motorhomes and campers. The number of such vehicles on Spanish roads has tripled in ten years, exceeding 130,000 units.

Key changes

  • Technical inspection (ITV): For motorhomes (category M) – first inspection after 4 years, then every 2 years until 10 years old, then annually. For campers (category N) – annually until 10 years, then every 6 months. Fines for non-compliance range from 200 to 500 euros.
  • Parking: Allowed under general conditions; municipalities retain the right to regulate parking. The new rules reference a 2018 Supreme Court ruling.
  • New sign: Sign S-128 is introduced to mark wastewater disposal points.

The new rules took effect on March 11, 2026.
