I am buying property in spain in the summer . Iwas going to download the nie number but there is more than one form there is the ex-15 or the ex-18 could someone help please . thanks Mick
The way things are over here,I would download both,if you dont ,I guarantee that the one you download will be the wrong one,(It is a game the Spanish love to play with us)and when you arrive over here make sure they havnt brought in a new form to supersede the previous two.But ,most important still take the previous two forms completely filled in,because another Spanish joke is the clerk that serves you,will not know about the new form and will insist he will only accept one of the older forms.
It is most important not to lose your temper,while all this goes on,That bit is an English joke,because if you stay calm the clerk dealing with you cannot throw his arms up in the air,push his chair over and storm out of the office,leaving you unable to complete your business,
Only joking really,(although i have seen this happen )
Just learn to be patient,and keep repeating ,'Manyana or Manana,doesnt mean later or tomorrow,it means sometime before the end of time
