FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Accepting or renouncing an inheritance

Accepting the inheritance is the usual course of action. Renunciation is exceptional and most often for economic reasons, such as taxes or inheritance debts. A simple renunciation benefits the remaining heirs, unless you specify that it goes to particular heirs.

It's best to consult a professional before deciding.

If you have children, consult first before renouncing.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I need NIE to purchase a property in the Canary Islands?

Yes, it is mandatory to have a NIE (Foreign Identification Number) and it must be requested at the police station or at the Spanish Consulate in your home country, providing documentation that verifies the purchase. If you are a citizen of a third country, you must justify the reason for obtaining the NIE, such as a deposit contract. Conversely, if you are a citizen of a European Union Member State, it is sufficient to simply make the request.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Inheritance: What steps should be followed after a death?

You need to find out if a will was made. To do this, you must request, along with the death certificate, the certificate from the Registry of Last Wills, which will indicate whether a will was made and the notary where you can request a copy. If no will was made, you will need to carry out the procedures for the declaration of heirs.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I've had a work-related or traffic accident; am I entitled to compensation?

In 95% of cases, yes, the cause of the accident determines who is responsible and who pays the compensation.

In work-related accidents, the report from the labor inspectorate is also important. If their findings declare that the company is at fault, it results not only in a penalty but also in an increase in benefits.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

If I am a citizen of a European Union country, do I need to apply for residency if I want to live in Spain?

Yes, you must apply for the EU residence registration certificate (green card) at the foreigner's office in the province where you wish to reside, taking into account the applicant's personal circumstances. For example: if you have been hired by a local company, if you want to start your own business, if you have sufficient financial resources, or if you are a digital nomad.
