Frequently asked questions

Can I work while waiting for the renewal of my TIE?
Yes, if you have an active employment permit. The processing certificate confirms that your application is in process and that you can continue working under the same conditions as before. Always request the certificate when submitting the application.
What happens if my TIE has already expired?
You have up to 90 days after expiration to renew without penalty. After this period, renewal becomes regularization and may involve a disciplinary procedure. If you exceed 90 days with an expired TIE, consult a foreign lawyer.
Can I travel abroad with an expired TIE?
No. For international travel, you need the passport in force and, to enter Spain, a valid TIE or authorization. Traveling with an expired TIE could cause problems when returning to Spain.
What documents do I need for family reunification renewal?
For family reunification renewal, you also need: documentation of the Spanish or EU citizen who is reuniting you (ID/passport + joint residency certificate), and documentation proving the familial link (marriage certificate, family book).
How long does it take to resolve TIE renewal?
The legal timeframe is 3 months. In practice, depending on the Government Delegation and workload, resolution can be faster or slower. You can check your application status online with your reference number.
