If you are an applicant for the selective process for State Fleet driver, there is one piece of information you must correct immediately in your schedule: the venue for the first exercise. The Resolution of September 3, 2026 contained a material error in the exam address, and the Resolution of September 15, 2026 corrects it with immediate effect from its publication in the BOE on September 17, 2026.

Appearing at the wrong building is equivalent to not appearing. There is no second opportunity in the same call for this reason.

What does this regulation establish?

The Resolution of September 15, 2026 from the Under-Secretariat corrects a material error in the call published on September 3, 2026, which in turn developed the selective process originally called on July 8, 2026.

The error affected exclusively the venue for the first exercise of the opposition phase. The correction resolution establishes the following:

DataIncorrectly publishedCorrect data
Venue for first exerciseFaculty of Geography and History (UCM)Faculty of Law, Complutense University of Madrid — Pl. Menéndez Pelayo, 4

The remaining conditions of the call —date, time, evaluation panel, list of admitted and excluded applicants— remain unchanged as published in the Resolution of September 3, 2026.

The selective process is governed by the IV Single Collective Agreement for civil service personnel and covers positions in professional group E2, specialty "Operation of road transport vehicles", in the State Fleet, Autonomous Body.

Economic and operational impact

This correction does not generate direct economic costs for applicants, but it has a critical operational impact: going to the wrong venue means exclusion from the selective process without possibility of correction in that exercise.

For applicants who have planned their travel, accommodation or logistics based on the incorrect venue (Faculty of Geography and History), it will be necessary to review and update those plans. Both faculties belong to the campus of the Complutense University of Madrid, but they are located in different places within it.

From the perspective of the calling organization, the correction is published with barely two weeks in advance of the exam date (the exact date of the exercise is not modified), which requires a quick reaction from all admitted applicants.

Who does it affect?

  • Applicants by open access to professional group E2, specialty operation of road transport vehicles, in the State Fleet.
  • Applicants by internal promotion to the same professional group and specialty.
  • Opposition exam preparers and academies that manage candidates for this selective process.
  • HR managers of public bodies that have communicated the call to employees in internal promotion processes.

Practical example

An applicant admitted to the selective process received the communication with the Resolution of September 3, 2026, where the Faculty of Geography and History appeared as the venue for the first exercise. He has booked a hotel near that location and has planned his route by public transport there.

With the correction published on September 17, 2026, the actual venue is the Faculty of Law of the UCM, Pl. Menéndez Pelayo, 4. If this applicant does not review the BOE correction and goes to Geography and History, he will arrive at a building where no exam is being held. The evaluation panel will not be there, there will be no call list and he will not be able to be evaluated. He will lose the position in that call.

The solution is simple: update the address in your schedule, review the route to the Faculty of Law and, if necessary, modify your accommodation reservation.

What should applicants do now?

  1. Update the exam address in all your documents and schedule: the correct venue is the Faculty of Law of the Complutense University of Madrid, Pl. Menéndez Pelayo, 4. Remove any reference to the Faculty of Geography and History.
  2. Review your logistics planning: if you had calculated travel times, public transport routes or accommodation based on the incorrect venue, recalculate everything based on the new address.
  3. Consult the official resolution in the BOE (BOE-A-2026-19349, published on September 17, 2026) to confirm that there are no other changes associated with this correction.
  4. Communicate the change to your exam prep instructor, academy or HR manager if applicable, especially if you are managing the participation of several candidates by internal promotion.
  5. Arrive with sufficient margin on exam day: last-minute venue changes can cause confusion at access points and identification checks. Allow at least 30 minutes additional margin.

Frequently asked questions

Where is the State Fleet driver exam in 2026?

The first exercise of the opposition phase takes place at the Faculty of Law of the Complutense University of Madrid, located at Pl. Menéndez Pelayo, 4. The Faculty of Geography and History that appeared in the original call was a material error, corrected by Resolution of September 15, 2026 (BOE of September 17, 2026).

What happens if I go to the incorrect venue on exam day?

If you go to the Faculty of Geography and History instead of the Faculty of Law (Pl. Menéndez Pelayo, 4), you will not be able to be evaluated. The evaluation panel will be only at the correct venue. Absence from the designated location is equivalent to not appearing for the exercise, with the consequent exclusion from the selective process.

Does this venue change affect applicants by internal promotion?

Yes. The correction affects both applicants by open access and by internal promotion to professional group E2, specialty "Operation of road transport vehicles", in the State Fleet. Both access routes share the same corrected venue: Faculty of Law of the UCM, Pl. Menéndez Pelayo, 4.

Has the exam date or time been modified along with the venue change?

No. The Resolution of September 15, 2026 only corrects the venue for the first exercise. The date, time, evaluation panel and list of admitted and excluded applicants remain as published in the Resolution of September 3, 2026.

Where can I consult the official correction of the exam venue?

The correction is published in the Official State Gazette with reference BOE-A-2026-19349, with publication and entry into force date of September 17, 2026. You can consult it directly at boe.es.
