Offices for cancelling your address registration in Spain

Name the city you live in now and see how its office works

Town halls handle this their own way: signing a short declaration at the counter, reserving a time online, or sending a signed request. Bring your ID and a dated declaration that you are leaving, though what a particular office asks for beyond that can vary.
