I have booked an appointment for my car to go through the Spanish ITV shortly and noticed that they require a driving licence along with other documents, my problem is I have not got around to acquiring a Spanish license yet and only have the old fashioned UK license (the paper type) does anyone know if they will accept it or will they only accept the Spanish one ?
According to this article you can drive on a UK/EU licence for up to 2 years after gaining Residency after which it becomes invalid.

I have 3 vehicles and have undergone about half a dozen ITV's, including initial ones when transferring from UK to Spanish registration, but never once been asked for a driving licence so where have you got this 'information' from?
Regarding paper licences see here

The information came from the cita previa conformation email reply.
I’m hoping that it’s not required but who knows.
