NIE number for Barcelona
- Kein Termin bei der Polizei in Barcelona.
- Keine Reise nach Spanien für den Antrag.
- Dieselbe NIE gilt in ganz Spanien, nicht nur in Barcelona.
In Barcelona the bank, the landlord and the notary ask for a NIE before a contract or an escritura can move on.
A cita previa in Barcelona is hard to get. We apply with a power of attorney. Sitges, Castelldefels, Badalona and L’Hospitalet use the same number. Girona is another province, but the same NIE is valid there. Our office is not in Barcelona.
