Get Your Empadronamiento in Spain – Fast & Hassle-Free
Need to register your address in Spain? Whether you’re applying for your TIE, accessing public healthcare, enrolling in university or school, opening a Spanish bank account, or simply settling in, the Empadronamiento is an essential — and legally required — step if you’re staying in Spain for an extended period.
At MTS Relocation Spain, we simplify the process from start to finish. We handle all the paperwork, schedule your appointment, and guide you through every step so you can get your Empadronamiento quickly and stress-free.
What Is the Empadronamiento?
The Empadronamiento (also known as the Padrón Municipal) is Spain’s official municipal registry. It certifies your place of residence and helps local authorities provide services, plan resources, and track population numbers.
You’ll need your Empadronamiento certificate to:
- Apply for or renew your TIE or NIE
- Access Spain’s public healthcare system
- Open a bank account or set up utilities
- Enroll children in school
- Get married in Spain
- Register for social services
What Documents Do You Need for the Empadronamiento?
We make sure you have all the correct documents, based on your specific situation and the requirements of your local ayuntamiento (town hall). Here’s what you’ll typically need:
- Completed Empadronamiento application form
- Valid passport and a photocopy
- Proof of address, such as:
- A rental contract (minimum 6 months)
- A property deed (if you own the home)
- An authorization letter from your roommate or landlord, along with a copy of their ID
- Recent utility bills with your name and address
Note: Requirements can vary slightly by municipality. We’ll ensure you’re fully prepared with exactly what your local town hall requires.
How Long Does It Take?
Once your documents are ready, we typically schedule your appointment within a few working days. In many cities, you’ll receive your Empadronamiento certificate right after the appointment — or within a short time afterward, depending on the location.
