NIE number online
 
Has anyone used one of the online firms to obtain a NIE number and if so, can you recommend one?

You can NOT get an NIE (just the number) online!

What they offer is to get you an appointment but you must attend in person.

Alternatively, you give them power-of-attorney but this involves you visiting a notary and can be expensive

Thanks for the reply, We'll have to do it in person then. Has anyone done this in Costa Teguise,Lanzarote?

Why do you need an NIE number?

We want to buy a property in Lanzarote and live there for a good part of the year after we retire, about three years. I have an Irish passport, my wife is trying for an Italian one

If you buy a property the Estate Agent will probably sort out getting you the NIE number. They did for us all be it a while ago now.

Ah okay, that would be helpful, thanks

Alternatively your lawyer at the time will do it.

Thanks again

You do need a Spanish address for the application but they will accept any valid address. Most people in your position use the lawyers address.

Good to know, thank you

You might also be able to get it done at the local Spanish embassy if you aren't presently here. Just recently a friend got his through the embassy in Malta, that is they send off the paperwork to Madrid and then you just wait... and wait... and wait. In his case it was 3 weeks.

The interesting thing is that the reason they gave is to open a bank account. The lady at the embassy put that down on paper with them even though I suggested earlier that they mention wanting to buy a car. But it still worked.

What's even stranger is that they received the NIE... via email. Not sure if the white paper doc will follow or whether they will only have an email to show? :) Strange indeed...

For just an NIE, any address anywhere in the world will suffice.

You now need a TIE number. Here in Costa there's a waiting list. I can give you the name of a good lad to help you.

Re: NIE number online
 
You only need a TIE if you are resident. The number is the same with either.

So to buy a property a NIE number is enough?

Fred James Jan 15th 2022 10:31 am

Re: NIE number online
 
Yes, TIEs are only given to long term residents who have satisfied the quite lengthy list of requirements and you must live in Spain for at least 6 month in a year.

Me and my partner just got our NIE,S this week, we were only charged 60 euros for the notary for the 2 of us, we had to personally go to la linea on Tuesday 25th for the application and again on Thursday 27th Jan to collect our certificates, really smooth process to be fair.

astera Jan 31st 2022 8:38 am

Re: NIE number online
 
Why was there a need for a notary if you went and applied for (and later picked up) the certificates yourselves?

Especially since the only thing you need to do is fill out the 790 (then pay the fee at the bank) and the EX-15, plus some supporting photocopies.
