Unaccompanied minors offices in Ciudad Real

The Immigration Office in Ciudad Real

Menores extranjeros no acompañados: determinación de la edad, residencia y mayoría de edad 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 Ciudad Real 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.
