Renewing your residence and TIE

Who it is for

Holders of temporary residence (employed, self-employed and others) and long-term residents renewing their card.

Where

Mercurio (online) or the foreigners office; then the police for the new TIE

Steps

1. Add your permit or card expiry date: we work out when the window opens and closes.
2. Find the Hoja informativa for your permit type: it lists the EX form and the renewal requirements.
3. File within the window. Filing on time extends your current permit until they decide.
4. Keep the filing receipt: it proves your permit is still valid.
5. Once renewed, book the new TIE (fingerprints) within one month.

When do you have to file?
