FAQ — EU citizens
Answers to the questions we hear most from EU citizens settling in Alicante.
You do. The moment you take a job, open an account, buy a home or settle long-term on the the Costa Blanca, a NIE is required. As an EU citizen you receive a green registration certificate that carries the number.
The number itself is usually handed over on the day of the appointment. The real delay is finding that appointment, and that is the part we shorten dramatically for you. If you cannot travel to the coast at all, a remote filer such as Gestoraz can put the request in from a distance instead.
It does not matter at all. We handle every conversation with the administration and explain each step to you in plain English.
Absolutely — securing that appointment in Alicante is the very heart of what we do for our clients.
Generally your passport or ID, the EX-15 form, proof of why you need the number and the paid Modelo 790-012. We confirm the precise list for your situation before the day.
