British people began to move to Spain in numbers back in the 1970u2019s as they looked for a better way of life, many moving to the Mediterranean.

British people began to move to Spain in numbers back in the 1970’s as they looked for a better way of life, many moving to the Mediterranean. This developed into more and more people moving there in the 80’s and 90’s so that by 2019 there were over three hundred thousand Britons living there.

The regions of Valencia and Andalusia are the most popular, with over 81,000 in each, followed by the Canary Islands with 27,000. Catalonia, Murcia, the Balearic Islands, and Madrid account for another 62,000 between them. In fact, Britons are probably the largest migrant group in Spain. This mass migration was triggered by a number of things, especially package tourism, but also cheap airline flights, a well-developed infrastructure, and over time, improved technological links to the UK. Higher disposable incomes together with longer holidays and the chance of early retirement led to people buying second homes in Spain.
As one of the leading removal companies to Spain, and with two of our own depots there in Malaga and Alicante, at Movers International one of the things that we would recommend that you do if you are moving to Spain is to get yourself a gestor. There is a lot more admin involved in moving to Spain now that we have left the EU, and while a gestor is not an accountant or a solicitor, they can do some of their work. The main thing that a gestor does is to liaise between you and the Spanish administration, and for their relatively low fees they will save you a lot of time in dealing with the administration rather than trying to do it all on your own. This is especially true if you don’t yet speak Spanish. Get A Gestor
On that note, you should definitely learn the lingo. Spanish is not a difficult language to learn, and if you want to get a job there you will definitely need to learn it. You can get an audio or online course in Spanish if you don’t have the time to go to evening classes. You will need an NIE number which is a tax identification number issued by the police. You have to have one if you want to work in Spain, open a bank account, or buy or sell a home or other property, or a car. That means pretty much everyone needs an NIE number. In order to get it, you will need the following documents: • Your passport and a copy of all pages • Passport photos • Proof of legal entry into Spain • A complete EX-15 form: you can find this online along with English instructions but it must be completed in Spanish. • A supporting document stating why you need an NIE (plus a photocopy).
