Hello

I am not up to date on whether you can do this online now but you do have to show up at some point as you have to sign everything & accompany your solicitor to the notaries office to legalise  your documents. I made mine years ago & I think I paid about €200 at the time.

One thing I did learn, a few years later, I wanted to make an amendment (addition) to my will -( in England it is a codicil)  but that does not  exist in Spain so I had to make a new will & pay again.

Hopefully, someone may have some more current info. for you

Cheers

Hi Garry,

When my husband and I first moved here, we were stung for Eu 300 each when our Spanish lawyer made our Wills.  Much cheaper to go direct to a Notary to do this - although about 30 minutes drive from you, when we needed to change our Wills last year, we used José at a cost of Eu 60 each:

NOTARIA JOSÉ CARLOS PÉREZ JUAN

Avenida Príncipe de España 2, 2nd floor

(the entrance is on Calle Islas Canarias)

03160 Almoradí

Tel:  965 701 121

Website: http://notariaperezjuan.es/

Email: [email protected]

Map:

https://www.google.com/maps/place/Notar%C3%ADa+de+Jos%C3%A9+Carlos+P%C3%A9rez+Juan/@38.1141,-0.789214,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xe0deef6591fa2b06!8m2!3d38.1140998!4d-0.7892141?hl=en-GB

He speaks excellent English, so you could email him and ask how he's managing face to face appointments.

Kind regards,

Kim
