help Nie number
| The Comments |
Could someone please let me know how to get an NIE number wirhout having to fly out to Spain . Can it be done through the Spanish consulate. I have got a solicitor in Spain he says he can do this for us but we have to grant him power of attorney (but we have to be there in person to sign the document which defeats the purpose)
I would be thankfull of any advise

Copied this from a post in "NIE certificate" thread (Search for it by putting in "NIE certificate"). Lots of other useful info in there including a translation of the Spanish on the form which I believe you can get off the website. We did ours when we were over there on a visit.

The info below has been copied from the Spanish Consulate General Website. http://www.conspalon.org/legaleng.html#NIE
| NUMERO IDENTIFICACION DE EXTRANJEROS (NIE) |
| INFORMATION FOR AN NIE (NUMERO IDENTIFICACION DE EXTRANJEROS) |
1.- An application for an NIE number should be made in person at the nearest Police Station in Spain where you intend to live or where you have or intend to have property.
2.- The Spanish Consulate General cannot issue NIE numbers.
It only acts as a "POSTAL BOX" between the applicant and the competent authorities in Spain.
3.- If you wish to send your application through this Consulate you will need to do the following:
You must come in person (no appointment needed) between 09:30 - 13:30 Monday to Friday as you will need to sign the form in our presence, with:
|
(a) Your valid passport.
(b) Two passport size photographs.
(c) The application form for NIE DULY COMPLETED BUT NOT SIGNED.
We do not provide the service of completing or translating the application form or any other documents relating to the NIE number.
This form cannot be obtained at this Consulate and must be obtained in the Comisaría de Policía in Spain or by downloading form EX-14 from their website http://www.mir.es. Click on "Información sobre trámites", "Extranjeros", "Modelos de Solicitud".
The form is in Spanish.
The address in point 4 (or if you have the new form, point 5) should be an address in Spain for the authorities to notify you of your NIE number.
(d) An envelope (no stamps needed) per applicant addressed to:
|
Comisaría General de Extranjería y Documentación
Dirección General de Policía
C/ General Pardiñas, 90
28006 Madrid
Tel: +34 91 322 6824 / 26
|
(e) A SAE with your address in the UK (to send you a photocopy of your application form for an NIE number once it has been registered at this Consulate). Your NIE number will go to the address in Spain provided in point 4.
(f) If you are resident in the UK but a NON EUROPEAN COMMUNITY citizen you will also need to send a certified copy of your residence permit in the UK and written proof of why you need the NIE number.
|
4.- Your signature and the photocopy of your passport needs to be legalised by us and there will be a fee payable to "The Spanish Consulate General" of £22 per applicant (cash only).
5.- We would emphasize that this Consulate General cannot issue NIE numbers.
6.- It is not possible to give any further information on the matter once the application has been placed with us and sent to the relevant authorities in Spain.
7.- Thereafter any enquiries should be made directly to the address at 3(d) above and NOT to this Consulate.

Hi Just to say the Spanish Consulate in Manchester will do this for you. It takes 3 weeks, and it works. The good news is it's free.

We gave our solicitor power of atorney. They had to send the form to us and we had to have it signed in front of a public notary. This is then sent to the Foreign & Commonwealth office to get a Hague Apostile which is then returned to the notary. You collect this and then post to your solicitor. It took a week from being notarised to the POA being sent to Spain. It cost about £120.

Hi
We did our NIE numbers at the consulate in Manchester . They charge about 22 pounds each administration fee and we recieved them by post to our UK address within 7 weeks. The staff at the consulate were very helpful they helped with the filling in of the forms but you do need to print your forms off the spanish gov web site
Hope this helps
