Frequently asked questions
What is a gestor and why do I need one in Spain?
A gestor administrativo is a state-certified professional who deals with Spanish public administration on your behalf: immigration, tax office, traffic authority (DGT), social security and town halls. A certified gestor files applications electronically with a professional certificate - no queues, fewer errors, faster results.

Regularising your status: the five arraigo routes
Since the Regulation that came into force on 20 May 2025, two years of continuous residence are enough instead of three, and the authorisations granted permit work:
All five arraigo routes
Social, sociolaboral, familiar, socioformativo and second chance, with the general requirements and the mistakes that sink files.

Step by step guides
Plain English walk-throughs with the Spanish law linked: digital certificate, appointments, file tracking.
Just arrived? This is the order that works
1. Register on the padrón
Padrón registration is free and proves where you live. Health card, school places and proof of continuous residence all hang off it.
2. NIE and TIE
The NIE is the number the administration knows you by; the TIE is the physical card. They are constantly confused.
3. Digital certificate
With a digital certificate you can do from home what otherwise needs an appointment: tax office, social security, padrón, DGT and immigration files.
4. Then whatever applies
With those three in place it is a matter of picking the right route. That is what the free consultation is for.
