Living in Vigo: what to know about your procedures

Vigo is the most populated city in Galicia, but the capital of its province is Pontevedra, and its Immigration Office is the one for Pontevedra. According to the official directory, that office also has a site in Vigo: you will see it, with its source, in the details below. The padrón is done at Vigo town hall. Online you prepare the complete file and only travel to the site that calls you.

The port, fishing, canning and industry give work in Vigo to neighbours who have come mainly from Latin America and Portugal, and many families from the Galician emigration return here. Arraigo, residence for family members of Spanish nationals, renewals and nationality by residence are all common.

Frequently asked questions about immigration in Vigo

See all questions
I live in Vigo. Do I have to go to Pontevedra?
Not always. The official directory lists a site of the Immigration Office in Vigo, but where you go is set by the appointment: go to the one shown on your confirmation. With “We file it for you”, if the procedure can be filed online, the application is registered over the internet. Fingerprinting is at the National Police, by appointment.
I am a descendant of Galicians and have come back from the Americas. Do I need an immigration procedure?
If you hold Spanish nationality, no: you are Spanish and need no permit. The ones who may need it are your foreign family, such as your spouse or children, who in general can apply for residence as family members of a Spanish national. If you do not yet have the nationality, your residence is governed by immigration rules like anyone else's. The test tells each case apart.

No, and you do not need one. ResiLegal is an online service for the whole of Spain: the test, the documents, the signature, the payment and the tracking are done from the website or the app, and you talk to us by chat, WhatsApp, Telegram, phone or video call.
