What can we do for you?

To buy a house (or a car or an electricity contract) you need a Spanish citizen service number: Número de Identidad de Extranjero. If you don’t have one yet, we will request it for you (costs €250).

You don’t have to get on a plane every time a piece of paper needs to be delivered. If you give us a power of attorney to perform specific actions, we can carry out the entire process for you. And also arrange other practical matters such as an internet or electricity connection.

Drawing up a power of attorney in Spain costs  €180.
