Who needs this service?

🌎

Latin Americans in Spain without documentation

If you have been living in Spain but lack residency, the 2026 extraordinary regularization (regularización extraordinaria) is a critical opportunity. Documents from your home country — apostilled — are mandatory.

🇺🇸

Former US residents applying to regularize

Lived in the United States before moving to Spain? You need an FBI Identity History Summary with a federal apostille from the US Department of State — not a state-level office.

🗂️

Multi-country applicants

Lived in 2, 3, or more countries in the last 5 years? You need a separate criminal record certificate — apostilled and translated — from each one. We handle all countries simultaneously.

What Spain's 2026 regularization requires

For each country where you have resided for any period in the past 5 years, you must provide:

Criminal record certificate Official background check from the competent authority of each country (FBI for the US, SEGOB for Mexico, Cancillería for Colombia, etc.)

Hague Apostille Each certificate must be apostilled by the competent authority of the country that issued it. Spain is a Hague Convention member — apostille is required, not consular legalization.

Certified Spanish translation Each apostilled certificate must be translated into Spanish by a sworn/certified translator accepted by Spanish immigration authorities.

Documents must be recent Most Spanish immigration offices require certificates issued within the 3–6 months prior to your application. Timing matters — start early.

Frequently asked questions

What documents does Spain regularization 2026 require?

Spain's 2026 extraordinary regularization requires a criminal record certificate with apostille from every country where you have resided for the past 5 years. Each certificate must also be translated into Spanish by a certified translator.

How many countries do I need certificates from?

One from every country where you have resided for any period of time in the past 5 years — including Spain itself if you need a Spanish criminal record, the US if you lived there, and your home country.

How long does the process take?

Processing time depends on each country. US FBI check: 15–21 business days standard. Mexico: 5–10 business days. Colombia, Venezuela, Argentina: 7–15 business days depending on the authority. We coordinate all countries in parallel.

Do I need to be in Spain to use your service?

No. Our service is 100% remote. We can coordinate the entire document package while you are in Spain or anywhere in the world.

What if a certificate expires before I apply?

This is a real risk. Most Spanish offices require certificates issued within the past 3–6 months. We help you plan the timing: we request documents as close to your application date as possible, and can arrange re-requests if needed.

What does the complete package cost?

Pricing depends on the number of countries and rush requirements. A typical 2-country package (US + home country) starts at $399. Contact us for a precise quote — free of charge, no commitment.
