Residencia Clara · Prices

Every price on one page. Next to it, what the authority charges.

Three doors, one list. Final prices, confirmed in writing before we start. Translators and official fees are passed on without markup.

Prices

Every price on one page

Fixed prices, quoted in advance, confirmed in writing. The authority's own fees stand next to them. They go to the state, not to us — and because you often cannot pay them in yourself at the start, we advance them and pass them on 1:1 as a disbursement, without IGIC.

Service to us to the authority

Arriving

First conversation, 30 minutes

By phone or at your home. You learn what lies ahead and what it costs. Then you decide.

Document check

We go through your papers and tell you what is missing. You get a sorted folder, a list — and your papers back digitised, up to 20 pages, each further page 1 €. No appointment, no accompaniment. If you then engage us for a residencia, we credit the check.

90 €

Digitising your papers

Your folders become clean PDFs: 300 dpi, colour, complete pages including stamps, margin notes and written reverse sides — exactly as a sworn translator and any authority need them. Up to 20 pages; each further page 1 €.

45 €

—

Just the appointment

You are doing it all yourself but cannot get a slot. We book it on your instruction through the sede electrónica — in your name, with your details, without booking software — and send you the confirmation. We never buy or pass on appointments. For any authority, not only for the residencia.

35 €

—

Empadronamiento

Registration at the town hall. The foundation for almost everything else — in practice a prerequisite for the health card and the residencia.

80 €

none

NIE

Your Spanish foreigner's number. Application, form, appointment, accompaniment. Only needed if you need the number before the residencia — for a bank or a notary, say. The certificado de registro assigns you an NIE anyway.

190 €

9,84 €

Residencia prepared

We check your documents, commission and verify the sworn translations including their digital signature, complete the fee form, make it payable and book your appointment. You go yourself.

190 €

12,00 €

Residencia accompanied

Everything in the preparation package, and we come with you. No driving, no parking, no queueing and no Spanish required. We group appointments and travel on fixed days.

340 €

12,00 €

Afterwards: official post, ongoing

We open your Spanish post with your written authorisation, translate it and tell you what it says and what deadline the authority states. Two matters a year — a reply letter or an appointment booking — are included; further ones by the hour.

45 € / month

—

“Arrival” package

NIE, residencia with accompaniment and empadronamiento — separately 610 € — plus about two hours of accompaniment to open a bank account.

590 €

about 22 €

“Arriving self-employed” package

For anyone coming here to work: NIE first, digital certificate, accompaniment for the autónomo registration, residencia as a worker — without insurance or bank evidence — and empadronamiento. At the end we hand you over to an asesor you have met beforehand. Separately 770 €. The route step by step.

690 €

about 22 €

Once you're settled

Digital certificate (FNMT)

The key to almost every Spanish authority online: tax returns, certificates, applications, deadlines — without queueing. Application, in-person identity check and installation on your device. The certificate itself is free.

120 €

none

Health card

Registration with the Servicio Canario de Salud and assignment of your local health centre. Application, documents, accompaniment.

55 €

none

Obtaining the S1 form

For pensioners in a statutory scheme: we write to your German insurer, chase the application, check the form and accompany you to register it with the INSS; with its certificate you then apply for your health card. The S1 gives you access to the Spanish public health system — and saves you the sworn translation of your insurance certificate.

90 €

none

Modelo 030 — tax office

Registering your address and details with the Agencia Tributaria. A short form that saves a great deal of trouble later. We fill it in from what you tell us; you sign.

45 €

none

Accompaniment for your autónomo registration

If you actually want to work self-employed here: registration with the tax office (modelo 036) and with the Seguridad Social (RETA). We transfer your details into the forms, book the appointments and sit beside you — the submission is made by you, with your own login. Which tax regime and activity code apply to you is for your asesor to settle beforehand — that is tax advice, and we do not give it.

190 €

none

Applying for the Cuota Cero

The Canary Islands government refunds new autónomos the reduced social-security contributions of the first year — about 1,000 €. The application has a fixed window after the year ends; miss it and it lapses. We remind you, assemble the documents and sit beside you when you file.

90 €

none

Onto the electoral roll

As an EU citizen you may vote here in local elections — but only if you register. Application and deadlines.

45 €

none

Exchanging your driving licence

Exchange of your German licence at the DGT. Application, documents and, if the DGT requires it, the medical report arranged. The appointment is on Tenerife — a Tenerife day (160 €) plus your ferry comes on top.

140 €

DGT tariff

Permanent residence after five years

After five years the certificado de registro becomes permanent residence. Evidence, application, appointment, accompaniment.

190 €

12,00 €

Ongoing

Accompaniment by the hour

Doctor, notary, bank, garage, insurer, electricity and water connections. Wherever you need someone who translates and thinks along. Started half hours are rounded up. The official procedures above run on the fixed prices listed — those are not billed by the hour.

33 € / hr

A day on Tenerife

For everything that cannot be settled on La Gomera — consulate, DGT, specialists, sworn translators. There, waiting, back — in one day, with you. Ferry separate.

160 €

Sorting out

First conversation about the case

Thirty minutes. You describe it; we say whether we can help, who else is needed and what the file intake will give you.

0 €

—

File intake

We read everything, translate the essentials, order deadlines and parties and write down what has to be done and by whom. About five hours of work at a fixed price. Then a written quote.

240 €

—

Care mandate

On quote: find and brief the professional, accompany appointments, translate post on an ongoing basis, keep the overview. From 900 € or by the hour (33 €). Legal advice and representation are the lawyer's, not ours.

from 900 €

—

All prices plus 7 % IGIC. Before every engagement you receive a written quote. There are no costs that do not appear on it. Sworn translations we buy in for you and pass on without markup — currently 30 € net per page, itemised on the invoice. For the appointment you need the translator's stamped paper originals: 10 € for the copies and 10 € for the courier to La Gomera, both net at the translator's rate — for the residencia, that is, practically always. Whatever applies in your case is in your quote before you agree to anything. Travel and waiting time within La Gomera are included in our prices; we do not bill mileage on top.

The comparison

What this costs elsewhere

You will look up the prices anyway. In September 2026 we checked what providers across Spain charge for the same registration, and we put the figures here — including the ones that do not flatter us. Prices as published, each without translations and official fees; ours net plus IGIC.

Where	What is included	Price
Costa del Sol	with accompaniment to the appointment	121 €
Mallorca	with accompaniment to the appointment	169 €
Fuerteventura	base price; travel and extra hours on top	from 180 €
Gran Canaria	per person; travel on top	180 €
Málaga	including the visit to the authority	212 €
Madrid	handled through to completion	266 €
Valencia	with a lawyer accompanying	475 €
La Gomera	no German-speaking accompaniment service — until now	—
Us, Valle Gran Rey	with the drive, the wait and interpreting	340 €
Us, without accompaniment	preparation; you go yourself	190 €

What the table does not show. On Mallorca the office is twenty minutes away. On Fuerteventura and Gran Canaria the base price sits next to travel surcharges and hourly rates for anything that runs long — with us it does not. Sworn translations are included in none of these providers' prices; nor in ours — we pass them on at cost.

If you want to engage one of them: ask about travel costs, and about what happens if the appointment runs longer than planned. Those are the two figures that decide the difference in the end.

Documents

How we exchange documents — with no client account

Passports, bank statements, certificates of inheritance: data that should not sit in a web login we built ourselves. So there is no password with us, but a folder.

Your folder

After the first conversation we create a folder on a European server — for you alone — and send you an upload link. You upload scans or phone photos, no account, no app.

What we obtain

Nota simple, translations, fee receipt, appointment confirmation, letters from the authority: everything we obtain for you is in the folder the same day. You can see at any time how far the file has got.

Afterwards

When the case is done we close the folder; you keep a copy of everything. Originals always stay with you. We talk by phone, WhatsApp or email — whichever you are used to.

The first conversation costs nothing

Thirty minutes by phone or at your home. You tell us your situation, we tell you which route is the right one, what it costs and how long it takes. Then you decide in your own time — and you get a written quote either way.
