Who do i speak to about emigrating abroad to spain?

Question

myself and family want to move to spain but dont know who to speak to and what the procedure is

Answer 1

ask at a spanish embassy

Answer 2

There's no need to 'tell' anyone except maybe your council so that your names can be removed from the electoral register. This is to avoid any identity theft. Then, of course, you want to inform any correspondents/officials you have of your new address to send their letters, etc.  Then, it's adios, amigos!

Answer 3

if you have a property out there then just pack up and go and then your on the spot to go to the Mayors office of which Blanca you intend to live to sort all details out

Answer 4

There are many sites on the WWW which will help.Just type in 'moving abroad 'for starters!!!

Answer 5

Spanish Consulate, London (Tel [phone]). It would help your case no end if you asked your questions in Spanish.

Answer 6

If you know nothing about Spain I would suggest going there for a short break and consult an abogado (Lawyer). Any ex-pat website will recommend you a good English speaking lawyer. They will be able to explain everything you need to know and the pitfalls. So many Brits come to Spain looking for property and seem to leave their brains at Gatwick.

Spain is a great place to live but like any foreign country they have their own set of rules. The beaurocracy can sometimes be a headache as it can take for ever to get a decision, but you come here for a slower placed life and you need to accept that.

Answer 7

I PRESUME, that you are somewhere, in the United Kingdom, at the moment!

The first thing that I would advise you, to do, would be for you to telephone the Spanish Embassy, in LONDON. The ADDRESS, for POSTAL enquiries, is 39 CHESHIRE PLACE, LONDON SW1X 8SB.

Or you can start making TELEPHONE calls to them, on 020 7235 5555.

Someone, THERE, - I am CERTAIN, - will be HAPPY, to tell you all, that you need to know!

All I can say now, is "VAYA CON DIOS"
