Important notice
This checker is for guidance only. The result does not guarantee approval or refusal of an application. The final assessment depends on the documents submitted, the specific facts of the case, and the criteria applied by the competent authority.
Were you already in Spain before January 1, 2026?
If your case has nuances, foreign documents, or an ongoing file, you should later confirm it against the full guide or a personalised review.
Before filing, it helps to have this clear
The weakest part of many files is not the form itself, but the proof of stay, the foreign documentation, or a rushed choice of route.
- Proof of continuous stay with dates, personal details and consistency across documents.
- Passport, registration document or travel document ready to attach.
- Criminal record certificate reviewed in time if it requires an apostille or translation.
- Submission channel chosen with enough time before the final deadline.

Potentially incompatible files
Detects scenarios that often require reviewing another route before filing this application.
