Q & A


Why a Reservation fee?


This is very common in Spain as most of the houses are for sale with several agencies.  The reservation fee of 3000 or 6000 euro, makes sure that your property is now OFF MARKET and completely reserved for you.

NIE number

 


All resident and non-resident foreigners with financial affairs in Spain - regardless of whether they are EU citizens or from a non-EU country - must have a foreigners tax identification number or NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero). This is the equivalent of a Spaniards Número de Identificación Fiscal (NIF) which serves as a fiscal identification number.


The CIF number (Certificado de Identificación Fiscal) is equivalent to the NIF, but applies to companies.


Anyone with financial, professional or social interests in Spain needs a personal identification number. The NIE is essential for any fiscal transactions in Spain where money is paid to the Spanish inland revenue office. The NIE number should be quoted in all dealings with tax authorities. The number appears on all documents issued in Spain.
