The padron explained, for Almería
What is the padron?
The padron municipal is the register of everyone living in a Spanish municipality. Registering is called empadronamiento and the certificate, the certificado de empadronamiento, is the official proof of your address.
Who needs to register?
- · Everyone who actually lives in the municipality, including children
- · People who need proof of address for healthcare, a school place or residence steps
- · People changing address within Spain, who register again in the new municipality
The official process in Almería
- · The registration form of your own town hall is completed for every person in the household
- · Proof of address and identification are collected for each person
- · An appointment is requested at the town hall, or the registration is filed online where the municipality allows it
- · The town hall records the registration and issues the certificate
Documents usually required
- · Passport or ID card for every person registering
- · Proof of address, normally a rental contract, deed or a recent utility bill
- · For children, a birth certificate or family book and consent of the parents
- · Written permission of the owner or main tenant when you are not on the contract
Government fees
Town halls do not normally charge for registering on the padron or for the standard certificate. If your municipality does charge for a specific certificate, you pay that amount to the town hall directly.
