Blog

On page 9 you will find older, but no less relevant articles from our blog. We update articles regularly whenever administrative fees, deadlines or laws in Spain change. For topics such as applying for the NIE number, registering as autónomo, Modelo 720, exchanging your driving licence or the healthcare system, it is worth checking the date and the update note at the top of the page.

Our editorial team is made up of people who live on Mallorca themselves and know the paths through Spanish administration, the search for housing, school registration and doctor visits from their own experience. If you have a specific question that is not answered here, feel free to get in touch via the contact form. Many articles have grown out of reader questions.
