How to get a Padron certificate in Guardamar del Segura – Alicante

In simple terms, the nearest equivalent to a Padron is the Electoral Register in the UK – a list of residents in a town or area. The complete name in Spanish is Certificado de Empadronamiento, but most people just call it a Padron certificate. Registering on the Padron means you’re officially living in that town, and this is called being “Empadronado”.

What documents are required to register on the Padron? 

Check out this ARTICLE on our website. It explains what is needed to register and is one of Google’s top-ranking Padron certificate articles!

Information specific to getting a Padron in Guardamar del Segura

We have been on a discovery trip to the Town Hall and found that if you are renting your property, you will need to take a signed Authorisation from the owner which you can download HERE. You will also need to take a utility bill or council tax bill (IBI) in the name of the property owner.  They also mentioned that although you don’t need an NIE number to register, it’s a good idea to update your details once you have one. Property owners will need to take the documents mentioned in the Padron article above.

We need your help!

Although we do as many discovery trips as possible to keep tabs on the Town Halls, Spanish administration is constantly updating and changing.
