Hi, despite having car registration by traffic dept etc., to my current address in O.Costa, the local suma office do not have my car on their books and so I cannot pay road tax. I am told that my car is listed with the Fuengirola office. They do not have address details.
My tax advisor cannot help as he only deals with property. How can I get my car listed/ transferred to my local O.Costa suma office
There is Gestoria Carrasco in the same building as the Suma Office in Playa Flamenca that can process the change for you. We used them when we bought our car and they were very helpful and professional.

Thanks. I will try them. It was a new car and an administrator had already transferred the car with the traffic office and therefore it should have appeared in the local suma in O.Costa but its registered on the Fuengirola suma so its either a 1000km visit each year.

Thanks for your response. I have had a car in Spain for 8 year and paid as you say. It is when I went to pay my tax for this new car that I found its not on the local suma but for some reason is on the Fuengirola suma where I have never lived. The car has been transferred to my address in in O.Costa officially. The suma office say they just can't enact a payment unless it is on their payment record and cannot do payments for another office. I have to somehow get the record moved between suma offices.
Regards
