Stay extension offices in Las Palmas

The Immigration Office in Las Palmas

Prórroga de estancia 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.

Which of them to choose

Las Palmas has 8 offices dealing with immigration matters, of which 4 handle Prórroga de estancia. The widest range is at Comisaría de Puerto del Rosario, in Puerto del Rosario, which lists 7 services.

All 4 of them handle the same core set, so for these you can simply go to whichever is nearest:

• Letters of invitation
• Stay extensions

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