renewal and moving your empadronamiento

Saturday, January 15, 2011 at 11:07PM

Renewal: If you are not a European Union national AND do not have a permanent residence visa (autorización de residencia permanente), you will need to renew your empadronamiento every two years. In all other cases, you will not need to renew. Your community will consider you a resident until they hear otherwise. However, if you move, have a child, or if any of the information you have provided changes, you will need to update your information with the padrón.
When moving to another community within Spain: Once you get empadronado in your new community, your old community will automatically be notified on your behalf.
If you are moving out of Spain: You will need to notify your community that you are moving out of Spain so they can update their records accordingly.
If you are moving to another address within the same community: You will need to notify your community that you have moved so they can update their records accordingly.
