F308 — Pedido de Reembolso (ANSR form: getting a refund on a fine you paid)
A form for getting money back. The money is refunded if you are acquitted, and also when no penalty followed, the money was paid as a deposit within 48 hours of the notice being served, and a defence was filed on time. This form can also be used to request a refund in two more cases: an overpayment, a mistaken or double payment (articles 131 and 169 of the Código da Estrada), and limitation — more than two years having passed since the notice (article 188).
Where you come across it. You paid a deposit so as not to have your documents taken at the roadside, and won the case; you paid twice.
The application must include a bank document showing your IBAN — without it there is nowhere to send the money — and, if you have them, the payment receipts. You submit it by email signed with your citizen card, by registered letter to ANSR, or in person at the PSP or GNR.
