Upon receipt of the power of attorney, we schedule the appointment with the Policía Nacional and attend it on your behalf.

Once the NIE number has been issued, you will receive the official certificate. You can use the number immediately for official matters in Spain.
Why through us?
Arrange your NIE number without travelling to Spain
Applying for an NIE number yourself often involves a lot of hassle with forms, appointments and unclear requirements. This can lead to delays or errors. We take care of the entire application process for you:
- Preparation of all necessary documents
- Appointment with the Spanish authorities
- We attend the appointment on your behalf with a power of attorney
You do not need to travel to Spain. As soon as your NIE number has been issued, you will receive it immediately by email. With a valid NIE number, you can take important steps without delay, such as buying a home, signing an employment contract or opening a bank account.
What is a notarial power of attorney?
A notarial power of attorney is an official document that gives us permission to act on your behalf, such as signing a document or submitting an application to a government agency. You are essentially giving us your voice or your hand.
What makes it special is that it is recorded or approved by a notary: a specially trained lawyer who checks whether you really understand what you are signing, whether you agree voluntarily, and whether everything is in accordance with the law. This way everyone, including the government, knows that the power of attorney is valid and reliable.
Information and costs of legalising the power of attorney
After placing your order, you receive a power of attorney that you can easily have legalised by an online notary designated by us, with step-by-step instructions. The entire process takes only 5 minutes, is completely digital, and can be completed 100% from your phone or tablet.
For a fixed fee of €125, the notary takes care of the legalisation and sends the notarised power of attorney to us by registered mail. We usually receive it within 3 to 5 working days; after that, all you have to do is wait.
