Hi Folks I established my NIF number some 30 yearsago as a non resident but villa owner in Moraira
Is this number still valid or do O need to renew it ??
If so how do I do it lease ??

An NIE is for life but occasionally you'll come across someone, usually a motor dealer or similar, who insists on seeing a recent paper copy which is compete nonsense.
The number will still be valid as it's yours for life. The certificate won't be, though, as they have changed a lot over the years and won't be accepted
Been an ongoing subject on this forum and the consensus seems to be you have to reapply for a new certificate at the place you got your original one.

Many thanks for your response. HOWEVER I very much doubt if me or my wife will remember over 30 years ago as to where we actually registered !! But you have been most helpful so thank you . We will have to scratch our heads or go back to our original solicitor - if he is still alive !!
