Adelina IveI learned of NIE through my university and I am grateful I opted for their services, which are reasonably priced. They don't just compile the necessary documentation and book the appointment but accompany you and ensure you have everything needed before the appointments. I appreciated Marketa especially for helping me navigate the local bureaucracy. If I had attempted to do this alone, I would have probably ended up taking double the time and several trips to government offices to make sure I got the registration and NIE card. Well worth it and can only recommend!PaulinaMarketa helped me through every step on NIE application and was very patient explaining what is needed. She was there with me on the appointment and helped with filling out the documents required. Marketa is super friendly and approachable, I couldn't recommend NIE.CAT services more!Rod TeleIt was a very good and helpful experience. Email responce was great, and being able to explain in English was even better, thanks.DavideRecommended! Communicative, and quick - totally satisfied! Marketa has been incredibly helpful!Mini ZabalaI truly appreciate Daniela for guiding me through the successful application for my Golden Visa!

I was done in 15 minutes. Would highly recommend!Robert Andrei Eduard ChetailleMarketa was exceptional! I contacted her through an email as a friend recommended her. In my case, I had changed my surname after marriage and I needed help to get my NIE updated as well. She took care of everything, getting the appointment, checking the documents I needed to present etc... I'll definitely use their services in the future if I'll be in need again!
