Applying for Residency
Posted: Wed Mar 20, 2024 10:56pm
Whilst applying for residency from the UK has anyone had their passport kept by the Spanish Consulate in London and could be possibly held for upto 3 months?
Is it normal?
Yes, it's normal but they will allow you to keep it if you are going to use it. Normally nowhere near as long as 3 months but they will let you have it back should you have a trip planned.
