Who prepares the file
About nie-barcelona.com
NIE Barcelona is an independent, private service that prepares NIE files for people moving to Barcelona: the form, the fee, the appointment and the right office.
It exists because the NIE is simple on paper and awkward in practice. The number takes one visit. Reaching that visit with the right form, a fee paid under the correct code and an appointment at the office that handles your nationality takes research, patience and Spanish.
We do that research with you. You describe your situation; we name the procedure and the documents, prepare the forms with you and look for a cita previa. On the day, you walk in with a file that has been checked line by line.
We do not work for the Policía Nacional, the Ajuntament or any administration, and we decide nothing on their behalf. What we offer is preparation. Every official procedure described on this site can also be done directly, at the official counters, for the official fee alone.
The method
How a file moves forward
- 01
Open the file
Tell us your passport, why you need the number and when you land. We answer with the procedure that fits, the office it belongs to and the list of papers for your case, nothing generic.
- 02
Fill and check
We complete the EX form your case calls for with you (15 for a number, 18 for the green certificate, 17 for a TIE, 19 for an EU family card), prepare the fee slip under the matching code, and tick every copy against the list.
- 03
Book and brief
We search for a cita previa at an office that handles your case, in the city or at a comisaría of the province. Before the day you get a one-sheet summary: address, time, and the papers in the order the officer asks for them.
Commitments
What you can hold us to
-
A file read twice
Every document is checked against the list for your procedure before the appointment, because a missing copy costs a slot that was hard to find.
-
The right counter
Rambla Guipúzcoa, Passeig de Sant Joan, Carrer de Mallorca or a comisaría of the province: we tell you which one your case belongs to, with the official source.
-
Spanish paperwork, plain-English notes
The forms and the counter are in Spanish. Our explanations are in plain English, with the Spanish term next to each one so you recognise it on the day.
-
Independent, and saying so
Nobody here works for the administration, and we say it plainly. Every step we take with you can also be taken alone, and we explain how.
