If the license is expired, the fine will be 200 euros and if the person who drives it is not authorized to drive the vehicle due to the withdrawal of the license, it will amount to 500 euros and the retraction of 4 points.

You also have to always carry the circulation permit. The fine for not doing so will be 10 euros and if the vehicle does not have this authorization it will amount to 500 euros.
