Civil registries for registering events from abroad in Spain

Find out how your city’s registry wants you to start

Registries run this procedure in different ways: some ask for a phone call or email before anything else, others set up a specific appointment once your papers are ready, and married partners may both be asked to attend. Each registry also sets its own list of documents to prepare.

    Ask which signed application, original foreign marriage certificate, identity documents and any birth or previous-marriage, divorce or death evidence your case requires. Confirm issuing-country legalisation and sworn-translation rules and any applicable EU or multilingual-document exemption before paying for these services. Do not book permission for a future wedding or request a copy of an existing Spanish entry instead. Civil registration is free; obtaining documents and translations can have separate costs. Ask the receiving office about expected handling times, notifications and any further Central or consular steps.
