Certificados Oficiales

Guides to official certificates

Certificadosoficiales.es is an informational website with step-by-step guides to requesting certificates and reports online and free of charge from various Spanish public agencies. Users need internet access and a digital identification method.

It is not an administrative-services firm or a document-processing service; the site explains how to request each document directly from the relevant agency.

Agencies covered

• Spanish State Tax Agency (AEAT): tax-registration certificates (business tax, tax residence, registration status, VAT taxable-person status, intra-community operators, nonprofit status, net turnover, corporate income tax exemption, and landlord withholding exemption); tax-return certificates (personal income tax, self-assessments, VAT, corporate income tax, and summary form 190); tax-status certificates (being current on payments, outstanding debt, business succession, and payments made); contractor and subcontractor certificates; and a general tax certificate.
• Treasury General of Social Security (TGSS): for individuals—public health care certificate, provisional replacement certificate (CPS), proof of being current on payments, work history and contribution bases, Social Security number (NUSS), employment status on a specified date, identity and address information, current status, limited-period work history, integrated benefits report, proof of actual workdays, and retirement pension simulator. For businesses and self-employed workers—duplicate employer registration and contribution account code (CCC) assignment, duplicate self-employed registration/deregistration decision, contributions and payments made, self-employed worker (RETA) and seafarer (RETM) contribution data, individual employer status, and negative employer-registration report.
• Directorate General of Traffic (DGT): driving-record points certificate.
• Land Registry Cadastre: basic and detailed cadastral certificates.

How the guides are organized

Each procedure is presented as a numbered guide, usually seven or eight steps, explaining what the document is, what it is used for, and how to obtain it online. The website also publishes recent articles on frequently requested documents such as a work-history report, individual-employer status report, identity and address report, contribution bases and payments report, and public health care entitlement certificate.

Who may find it useful

The information is intended for individuals who need a personal certificate and for businesses and self-employed workers who must document their status for another party. The website accepts questions and suggestions through a contact form for procedures it does not cover.

Confirm procedures and requirements directly with the relevant government agency, as administrative processes can change.
