Family member of an EU citizen card in Alicante

Love and family do not always carry the same passport. If you come from outside the EU but are a close relative of an EU citizen living in Alicante, you can apply for the Tarjeta de familiar de ciudadano de la Unión — a five-year residence card that keeps the household together on the the Costa Blanca.

Who can apply

  • The spouse or registered partner of an EU citizen
  • Children under 21, or older children who remain dependent
  • Dependent parents or parents-in-law

What the file contains

You will need proof of the family tie, the EU citizen's own registration, evidence of a shared address in Alicante and suitable health cover. We pull the documents together and lodge the application, sparing you the back-and-forth.

In Alicante

From Torrevieja to Elche, newcomers rely on us for the eu family member card in Alicante. We prepare every document to the Oficina de Extranjería de Alicante standard so nothing gets sent back.

Frequently asked questions

Spanish nationals are EU citizens, so a non-EU spouse can apply on the same family-member basis; we will confirm the exact paperwork for your circumstances.
