Special Regularization: You Can Now Schedule an Appointment at 400 Offices

Starting this week, more than 400 offices—including Immigration, Social Security, and the Post Office—are now open to receive your applications for extraordinary regularization. The goal: to relieve pressure on the system and allow half a million people to get their paperwork in order. So get moving.

In Almería, for example, there have already been lines: it’s estimated that 20,000 migrants may be eligible. Across Andalusia, the total is 60,000. To avoid crowds, the offices have set special hours: from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. So now you know—it’s best to go in the afternoon.

There are three ways to make an appointment. The most convenient: the Regularization portal with Cl@ve—there you can choose the office, day, and time. Without Cl@ve, you can use a web form on the same portal, but you won’t be able to choose either the office or the date. Another option: call 060; they’ll assist you in Spanish. Just be aware that the lines get busy quickly.

And what documents will you need? Here they are—take note:

• The official application form (download it from the portal)
• A copy of your passport or valid travel document
• Documents proving that you were in Spain before January 1, 2026, and that you’ve resided here for at least five months prior to applying
• Criminal background checks from Spain, your country of origin, and any country where you’ve lived in the last five years

Note: All documents must be in your name and dated. Don’t forget.

In addition to government offices, agricultural organizations, NGOs, and administrative service agencies are lending a hand as partner organizations to help you with the paperwork. If you have any questions, make sure to get all the information you need before you go. Hurry up.
