As FENADISMER, the national association of ITV stations, has been reporting, there have been many complaints that transporters and private drivers have been raising these days due to the lack of information regarding the obligation to pass the ITV of their vehicles, since while some stations remained open, others were closed, as is the case of the ITV Andalucía, Extremadura, Navarra and Asturias, due to their different legal management regime.
To avoid such lack of coordination and chaos for users, the national association that groups ITV stations agreed to contact the Ministry of Industry to clarify the situation after the approval of the Decree declaring the state of alarm.
