Hi,

Banco Sabadell have sent me an email advising that I must renew my NIE with police station.  Is this a genuine email? If I don’t renew the NIE, what are the implications? 

Many thanks 


Julie

Dear Julie,

You do not need to renew your NIE as (unlike the TIE) it does not expire (the normal NIE is just a white piece of paper without a photograph and signature and it is merely a document showing your tax number) so I would check with your bank manager personally to avoid problems.

If what you currently have is the green document showing your NIE (the certificate of registration as a EU citizen) then you would need to exchange it for the TIE (this is a card with photograph, your fingerprints and signature)

Regards

Thank you for your reply.  If we have understood correctly, now that the UK is not in the EU our NIE is no longer valid and we should have a TIE instead? 

Many thanks

We only have a white piece of paper quoting an NIE number - nothing else.  Julie

No worries, just googled and found a website that explains it all:

Dear Julie,

You just need a TIE if you live here permanently. If you are legally domiciled in the UK and only come to Spain to spend your holidays here you do not need a TIE but just your NIE
