EU registration offices in Barcelona

The Immigration Offices in Barcelona

Certificado de registro de ciudadano de la Unión is an authorisation, so it is decided at an Oficina de Extranjería under the Government Delegation — not at a police station. They are separate networks with separate appointment systems, and going to the wrong one is the most common wasted journey in Spanish immigration.

The ministry's page for Barcelona does not name this procedure among the services it itemises for these offices. They are the province's Immigration Offices, which is where authorisations of this kind are decided, but ring ahead before travelling rather than relying on that.

Which of them to choose

Barcelona has 26 offices dealing with immigration matters, of which 16 handle Certificado de registro de ciudadano de la Unión. The widest range is at Comisaría de Manresa, in Manresa, which lists 5 services.

All 16 of them handle the same core set, so for these you can simply go to whichever is nearest:

• EU registration certificates

Anything outside that list is where the offices differ, and each entry below says what its own office adds.
