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.

    Bring the signed application; original and copy of the Spanish spouse’s DNI (Spanish national identity card) and every passport page for non-Spanish spouses; current padrón certificates for both; the full marriage certificate; each spouse’s full birth certificate; and birth certificates of all children of both spouses. Unless the document specifies another validity period, the guidance accepts padrón certificates issued within six months and spouses’ birth certificates within one year. Prior divorce or widowhood requires the relevant previous marriage/divorce or death records; Pakistan and Bangladesh cases also require NIKAH NAMA. Ask about sworn translation and apostille/legalisation, including applicable exemptions and EU multilingual supporting forms.
