We draft the NIE application for foreign nationals who are NOT resident in Spain but have economic, professional or social interests here (LO 4/2000 art. 4 + RD 1155/2024 art. 205). You need it to buy or sell property, open a bank account, deal with an inheritance, set up utility contracts, incorporate a company, and so on. We justify the qualifying reason and, if someone is acting for you, we check that the specific notarial power of attorney is apostilled.
