Living in Mataró: what to know about your procedures

Mataró is the capital of the Maresme district and belongs to the province of Barcelona, so your residence applications depend on the Immigration Office of Barcelona. You do the padrón at Mataró town hall. The capital is a commuter-train ride along the coast, enough for any errand to take up the morning; that is why it pays to prepare the file online and go down only when needed.

Neighbours from Morocco, sub-Saharan Africa, China and Latin America live together in Mataró, with plenty of small shops and work in textiles and the Maresme's market gardens. Arraigo, renewals, family reunification and permits for self-employment come up repeatedly.
