First steps in Spain

Everyone living in Spain must register on the municipal register (padrón) where they live. This is done at the town hall and gives access to municipal services.

Emergency care is guaranteed. Ask at your health centre how to apply for the healthcare you are entitled to.

People under 18 have the right to education, whatever their administrative status.

To register as a jobseeker you generally need authorisation to work. You can check with SEPE and the Andalusian Employment Service.

Use official sources only, and be wary of anyone who guarantees a permit in exchange for money.
