Living in Marbella: what to know about your procedures

Marbella belongs to the province of Málaga, so your residence applications are decided by the Immigration Office of Málaga, in the capital. Your padrón (municipal registration), however, is done at Marbella town hall, and it shows that Málaga is your province. Going to the capital means travelling a good stretch of the Costa del Sol for something that can nearly always be prepared from home.

Marbella has a very varied international population. That is why non-lucrative residence and its renewals, the EU citizen registration certificate, the card for their family members, the TIE for British nationals who were already resident before Brexit, and permits for people working in hospitality and services are all common here.

Frequently asked questions about immigration in Marbella

See all questions
I live in Marbella. Do I have to go to Málaga for my procedure?
It depends on the procedure. With “We file it for you”, when the procedure can be filed online, we register the application over the internet and you do not go to the office. With “Do it yourself” you file in person, by appointment, at the Immigration Office of Málaga. If you are granted a card, fingerprints are taken at National Police premises, by appointment: the confirmation tells you where.
Can I renew my non-lucrative residence from Marbella?
Yes. The renewal is requested in Spain, at the Immigration Office of your province, and can be filed online. You will have to prove sufficient financial means and health insurance again, among other requirements. We check your documents and prepare the form; if it is granted, you will need to go in person to give your fingerprints for the new card.
