Where is the record number?

It isn't always easy to comply with the Spanish Traffic authorities, and their website is far from perfect. Whe trying to pay a Spanish ticket you will be required to provide the 'record number' for the fine. The 'record number' can be found on the top-right corner of the letter when the letter is in Spanish, under the 'N. EXPEDIENTE' label.

The Spanish speeding fine record number is required to complete the payment or to get further information about the ticket.

If the notification is in French, in Dutch, in German, in Italian, in Portuguese, in Polish, in English or in any other EU language, then the 'record number' will be on the top-left, labelled as record number, dossier number, pratica number, etc.

The field for the record number requires 12 digits, so forget the dots and dashes.

    Looking for reference number on speeding notification from Spain. I see the document number, but not a reference number.

    This system is farcical. The number listed under "N.EXPDTE" come back with "Error, the document number entered is not correct". This is really backward stuff to not have the correct number in the fine.

      Can I ask how you got round this as we’ve tried every number on the ticket but none of them state they are the document number and all give us the error message

    Thanks for this, I also could not figure out the document number.
    Paying only worked under Chrome with adblockers turned off.

    The best website to directly pay your traffic fine is the following: https://sede.madrid.es/portal/site/tramites/menuitem.62876cb64654a55e2dbd7003a8a409a0/?vgnextoid=dd7f048aad32e210VgnVCM1000000b205a0aRCRD&vgnextchannel=d4968173cec9c410VgnVCM100000171f5a0aRCRD&vgnextfmt=default

    This is ONLY for Madrid and is where you can input the correct information (Boletin, Control matricula, DC) and it's clear. I have no idea why the link on the DGT website is complicated.
