Frequently asked questions

What is the purpose of registration?
It confirms your residence in the municipality. It's necessary for renewing your ID card if you change address, enrolling children in neighborhood schools, applying for benefits and subsidies, and for foreigners, renewing their residence permit.
Is it mandatory to register?
Yes. The Local Governance Act obliges all residents (Spanish nationals and foreigners) to be registered with the municipal registry where they habitually reside.
Can an undocumented foreigner register?
Yes. Registration is independent of administrative status. The city hall does not inform immigration authorities.
How long does it take for registration to be effective?
Registration in the municipal registry becomes effective immediately. You can obtain a registration certificate at the same time (free of charge).
What is the difference between a card and a certificate of registration?
The card is the standard, free document issued on the spot. The certificate has greater legal validity (notaries, courts) and is also free.
