NIE and residency help!!
 

Hello everyone!

So, i'm moving to Sevilla on Tuesday! I have a job lined up which starts on the 1st Oct, and I have a pre-contract. I have been having trouble finding an apartment, and so the first week I am staying in an airbnb and viewing apartments.
I have an appointment at the Oficina extranjeros in Plaza de Espana on Wednesday for an NIE and residency. However, I don't have an address, and the forms ask for an address. Do I need a Spanish address? Can I put the address of the airbnb for now and then change it when I find my apartment?

Someone help, it's all so confusing!!

Thanks in advance,

Josie

I think you can use any address. I didn't even have an address when I got my NIE. The EA arranged it for me, but that was many years ago.

Who is your employer, perhaps they can assist? You might need a friend who speaks Spanish.

Hi Josie,

Yes you need an address in Spain but your airbnb address will be ok to use. If you are applying for your residencia you will need to prove that you have full healthcare cover and a regular income.

Healthcare will come as part of a permanent work contract. Yes, any address will do.
