Royal Decree 255/2025 (BOE-A-2025-6601) implements a long-anticipated provision: Spanish citizens living abroad will have the opportunity to apply for their national identity card at embassies and consulates, contingent upon the availability of requisite technical and human resources.
What is its significance?
Because it signifies a pivotal moment for the Spanish community abroad:
- It enables you to oversee identity procedures without the need to travel to Spain.
- Enhances the relationship between citizens and the administration.
- Enables access to digital services from any location globally.
How will it function?
The General Directorate of Police may provide this service internationally, in partnership with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
As professionals in immigration and nationality law, we at Gentile Law embrace this development.
- Because it brings rights nearer.
- Because it streamlines processes.
- Because it acknowledges the needs of individuals residing outside of Spain.
Verify whether your consulate is prepared to issue DNI.
It is a significant step, and it is your right.
At Gentile Law, we support Spaniards residing abroad with all their immigration and nationality processes.
