Invitation letter offices in Navarre

2 offices in Navarre handle Carta de invitación, in Iruña and Tudela. Not every police station in the province does — going to one that does not costs you the appointment, and the appointment is the part that takes weeks.

Which of them to choose

Navarre has 2 offices dealing with immigration matters, of which 2 handle Carta de invitación. The widest range is at Brigada Provincial de Extranjería y Fronteras de Pamplona, in Iruña, which lists 10 services.

All 2 of them handle the same core set, so for these you can simply go to whichever is nearest:

  • EU registration certificates
  • NIE numbers and certificates
  • Letters of invitation
  • Nationality reports
  • Registration certificates (cédula de inscripción)
  • Return authorisations
  • Stay extensions

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

Before you travel to one of these

Almost all of these offices work by appointment only, booked through the electronic office of the public administration. Turning up without one generally means being turned away, however short the queue looks. Office assignments also change, so if what is here does not match what you are told on the phone, believe the phone and tell us.
