I have seen replies to a post about getting NIE numbers by going directly to the Spanish Embassy in London. Silly question but do we need to have an address in Spain to be able to apply. We’re moving over Sept/Oct to rent, then buy. Trying to be as prepared for the move as we can be. 

Thanks in advance.

The Embassy merely acts as a ‘postbox’ I understand. No, you don’t need Spanish address; however, there is a much less arduous way which we did. There are several Spanish based online outfits who will do it for you mainly via email and a visit to a UK notary (not solicitor, qualified notary) most towns have one. We used a firm called NIE online or similar and it was perfectly safe and efficient, they are staffed by either UK nationals or fluent English speakers. If you want to know exact name, pm me and I will have to dredge through filing system and find it!
