Register

The municipal register or Padrón contains the number of inhabitants in a municipality and is very important as the number of people registered affects the economic contribution that the city receives from the Central Government.

The greater the number of registered voters, the greater the amount of funds that a City Hall receives for municipal infrastructure and services.

For EU residents, identity document from your country and, alongside this, the residence permit issued by the police station or just your passport.

Rented accommodation: rental contract and a utilities bill for electricity, water or real estate tax addressed to the contract holder.

Owned accommodation: deed or land registry report or real estate tax for the dwelling.

For minors: if they do not have a passport, the same documentation as the adults, except those born in Spain who may use the family record book or birth certificate.

(All documentation provided must be valid).
