NIE Validity
Posted: Mon May 28, 2018 12:45 pm
Can anybody answer these questions regarding NIE?
1. When applying for NIE do you have to be living in Spain. In other words, can we get our NIEs before we start looking for a house and before we attempt to live in Spain?
2. Is there a validity period for NIE. I've seen on some older posts that initial NIEs were valid for three months only. Is that still the case?
We're both still working but wish to retire to Spain one way or the other and I'm just trying to save time and get "ahead-of-the-game."
Thanks, BB.
