Hello lovely people, hope you can assist. My partner is trying to obtain his NIE number via the Spanish consulate in Manchester. He did the first part successfully and they emailed him some log in details (if that’s the correct terminology). The problem now is what does he do with that information to arrange an appointment? There was no link including with the log in details and we’ve looked again on the website but can’t see how we book an appointment? Also at that point do we complete the police form and if so how do we do that?

TIA

See link below. At the very end of the script click on NIE Appointments once this page loads you can make ypur appointment.

Does the application process for a NIE require a police declaration? I can't see this anywhere in the instruction.

Thank you so much John, very much appreciated. 

The police form link is under the NIE application part (it’s blue and in Spanish). Sorry tried to add the link!

Have a great new year when we get there!

Hi John just been on the website to check what documents we need to take to the NIE application appointment and it’s stating the form 790, code 12.

just clicked on the link and I wouldn’t even know how to populate it. It does look like it needs to be completed, downloaded, printed out and take along with other documents?


any ideas?


thank you!

The 790 012 is the tax payment you have to pay before going to the appointment. You take the receipt from the bank with you to show it has been paid.

Fill it out from here in English and it will print in Spanish. I think it's about 12 euro at the moment but you take that to a bank and either pay from your account (by ATM or the desk) or pay cash if it's not your bank.

Hello and thank you for your reply. Sorry I’m probably being a bit dense! We’re in the UK so we print this form out then take it to our bank (tbh will they even know what it is!). If we do manage to get it paid at our bank we then take it with other documents to our NIE appointment in Manchester? Tha

Sorry, I should have read your post fully and saw you were applying at Manchester. Yes, take the 790 with you and pay it there and then.

Apologies for not reading.

Thank you.

Do we fill the form in before we go (as I’m struggling to know which parts to complete). Then take it to the appointment and they’ll ask for payment then?

Also I’ve tried on my iPhone and laptop and no instructions are coming up when I hover over each section.

Stressed!

Under the Identity documents and titles and travel documents for undocumented foreigners and other documents.

Select the one marked .Assignment of a Foreigner Identity Number (NIE) at the request of the interested party.

This link 790 template has the fields you need to complete marked in red.

I note marcliff has already responded therefore can I assume you are now clear in what you need to do?
