I am a greek citizen and would like to get a NIE in Mallorca
Here's a step-by-step guide to getting a NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero) in Mallorca, Spain:
1. Make an appointment (cita previa) ( We can help with that ) :
- Visit the National Police website (sede.administracionespublicas.gob.es)
- Select "Mallorca" and "Asignación de NIE"
2. Required documents:
- Form EX-15 ( ( click here to download ) (completed and signed)
- Valid passport and photocopy
- Proof of reason for requesting NIE (work contract, property purchase, etc.)
- Payment of fee (around ?10) at any bank using form 790
- If applying through a representative, authorization letter
3. Where to apply in Mallorca:
- Oficina de Extranjería
- Palma Police Station (for NIE only)
As an EU citizen, you can also:
- Apply for NIE and EU Registration Certificate together
- Use Form EX-18 instead of EX-15 ( ( click here to download )
- Provide proof of financial means and healthcare coverage
Tips:
- Appointments can be hard to get; check regularly
- Bring original documents and photocopies
- Consider using a gestor (administrative helper) if needed
- Documents in other languages need official Spanish translation
The process usually takes 1-2 weeks once you submit the application.
