Frequent questions ask about NIE number
Do you return the original documents (POA and copy of passport)?We can of course return these documents to you together with your NIE application. However, we would like to keep them in order to be able to apply for your NIE number again in the event it gets lost in the post, or you happen to lose it.What happens if the NIE gets lost in the post?In this very rare instance, we would simply re-apply for a duplicate with the same power of attorney and passport copy.What happens if I have lost my NIE Number?Applying for a duplicate NIE Number is the same process as applying for the first time. One thing to watch out for however, albeit most of the time this goes without saying, is that the same details are put on the second application form as the first because if not, they police will have problems in issuing the same number if they cannot prove 100% that it is the same person.
