  • NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero) is your official identification number as a foreigner in Spain. It is required for any legal, financial, or administrative activity — such as buying property, opening a bank account, signing a work contract, or starting a business. Every foreigner who wants to carry out any of these procedures in Spain needs one.

  • You can apply for your NIE either in person at a police station with a foreigner's office or online through an agency such as NIE Marbella. We handle all the paperwork, book your appointment (cita previa), and provide complete assistance from start to finish.
