For foreign hauliers operating in Spain

From 5 October 2026, domestic public road freight in Spain — including cabotage by foreign hauliers — requires a digital control document. Cross-border journeys do not.

Quick check

Does this journey need DeCA?

Answer two questions about the specific journey. The carrier's country is not what decides it: the origin, destination and type of operation do.

This checker provides general guidance and does not verify whether the cabotage operation itself is authorised or whether a sector-specific exemption applies.
