Frequently Asked Questions about Immigration Procedures
Can I start the procedures from my country of origin?
Yes. In fact, most initial visas must be applied for at the Spanish Consulate in your country of residence. We guide you throughout the remote process so that by the time you arrive in Spain, much of the work is already done.
How long does an immigration procedure usually take?
Time frames vary greatly depending on the type of permit and the province. However, our knowledge of the process and the submission of complete and correct online applications allow us to speed up timelines as much as possible and avoid unnecessary delays.
Do I need to be physically in Spain to obtain the NIE?
Not necessarily. You can obtain the NIE through the Spanish Consulate in your country or by granting us a power of attorney, which allows you to get a head start on many procedures even before you travel. We will advise you on the most efficient option for you.
