Hi,
We are non-EU citizen and had applied for residency visa in home country, and would like to check what are the procedures / things to do after the visa is approved and arrival in Spain.
I am confused as to which documentation to apply first? Empadronamiento or NIE's & Residencia?
I understand that I need to furnish an address when applying for Empadronamiento. However, I do not know anyone in Spain, and would be staying put at hotel first. Are we able to provide the address of the hotel?
Likewise for the NIE, could I just put down the hotel address?
I wish to buy an apartment in Spain, and may take some time to look around. I not too keen in renting as landlords usually ask for 1 year contract. Once I confirmed with the property purchase, I would update the relevant authorities again. Could I do that?
