First of all, your valid identity card. This is initially sufficient for a purchase down payment contract, the “Contrato de arras”, to reserve a property.

However, to notarise the purchase, you need the NIE number and a Spanish bank account. Of course, Lenssen&Partner can also help you with this. It is better to plan up to six weeks for the application for the NIE and the opening of the account (this process usually takes 2-3 weeks, but can also take up to 6 weeks in individual cases).

To rent a property, you will need your ID and all the IDs of all the people who are to be listed in the tenancy agreement. Also proof that the rent is secured (proof of income or tax assessment). Lenssen&Partner will of course handle your documents discreetly. An NIE number and details of a Spanish account for registering electricity, water and, if applicable, telephone/internet can be submitted later.
