🔶 Renewal of Non profit Residency in Spain: Key Tips to Avoid Complications

▶ Here are some practical tips from immigration expert Antonio Villena to make your process as smooth as possible:

1. Start preparing the documentation for renewal 4 months before expiration. Don’t leave it until the last minute!

2.Passport: Keep your old passports. Renew your passport at the relevant consulate in Spain.

If the consulate refuses to return them, you can request the authentication of the pages, which will be valid.

3. Health Insurance: Make sure your insurance is up to date. Do not interrupt payments or allow the policy to lapse. Authorities will require a certificate proving you were covered throughout the period.
4. Bank Balance:Maintaining a stable bank balance is crucial. Provide consistent account activity from the previous year. Avoid making large deposits right before renewal.
5. Children’s Schooling: Request the school certificate in advance. Schools may be closed in July, August, or December, and you’ll need it for renewal.
6. Proof of Stay: Always keep proof of your stay in Spain. If you lose your passport or the consulate doesn’t return it, these proofs will be necessary when applying for permanent residency.

With these tips, you can renew without surprises and with peace of mind. 🚀
