FAQ
Questions we hear every week
Do you have an office in Valencia?
No. Expat Valencia is an online service. We handle your paperwork in Valencia remotely and book your appointments, and you only go in person where the law requires it, such as fingerprints for your TIE or the padrón appointment.
Do you cover towns outside Valencia city?
Yes. We work for clients all over the province, from l'Horta around the city to the coast at Gandia, Cullera or Sagunto and inland towns. Each procedure is booked at the office that corresponds to your address.
Are you part of the government?
No. We are a private gestoría that prepares and files procedures for you. Official fees go to the administration and are always listed apart from our fee.
Can you get me an appointment this week?
Nobody can promise a date. Appointments in Valencia are released by each office. We search for them consistently and make sure your file is complete, so the appointment you get is not wasted.
Which languages do you use?
English and Spanish, by WhatsApp, phone or email.
