We handle it ourselves from start to finish, with professionals from our network, with a written quote before we start and your case visible in your client area. We ask for your current card, your employment record or proof of means and the municipal registration.

### WHAT IS INCLUDED AND WHAT IS NOT PROMISED

Renewal has a window before and after expiry, and filing outside it complicates a file that was going well. The second thing that decides it is contributions for the period: gaps have to be explained, not hidden.

What it includes: checking the filing window and the period's contributions; preparing and filing the renewal electronically; follow-up, corrections and the residence card appointment. What it does not include: we cannot guarantee the permit or speed up the authority: the immigration office or the ministry decides in its own time.

#### DOCUMENTS YOU WILL NEED

- Full valid passport.
- Municipal registration certificate, historical if you have it.
- Your current residence card (TIE).
- If you are employed: up-to-date employment history and recent payslips.
- If you are employed: current contract or evidence of means.
- If you are self-employed: self-employment registration and certificates showing you are up to date with tax and Social Security.
- If you are self-employed: your latest VAT and income tax returns.

#### INDICATIVE TIMING

We answer your enquiry within 1 working day and send the written quote within 2 working days.

Once your documents are complete, we prepare the file between 3 and 8 working days.

It is filed from two months before expiry up to three months after; filed in time, the previous permit is extended until the decision. Legal deadline: three months; the effect of silence depends on the type of renewal (approval for residence and work as an employee).

See [the pricing page](https://iberfacil.es/en/pricing) for how we charge this kind of matter.

### How it works

1. **WE IDENTIFY THE EXACT PROCEDURE** We check which renewal window you are in and whether your contributions or means during the period meet the requirements.
2. **DOCUMENT LIST AND QUOTE** We ask for your current card, your employment record or proof of means and the municipal registration. Price agreed, fee apart.
3. **FILING AND RECEIPT** We file the renewal electronically and keep the receipt, which proves your status is regular while it is decided only if you filed in time (art. 80.1 of RD 1155/2024).
4. **TRACKING AND CORRECTIONS** We follow the decision, answer any correction request and book the appointment for the new card.

### Frequently asked questions

MINE EXPIRED WEEKS AGO.

There is a window after expiry. Write with the exact date and we check today.

I HAVE CONTRIBUTED LITTLE THIS PERIOD.

That is not automatically a refusal: means have to be evidenced and gaps explained. We prepare it that way.

CAN I TRAVEL WHILE IT IS DECIDED?

To travel you need a return authorisation, which is a separate service and lasts a maximum of 90 days.
