If you are living in spain then having an NIE is irrelevant as it does not entitle one to live in
Spain

To live here as an an EU National you need the EU Citizens registration certificate.聽 It a piece of green paper either A4 or credit card size.聽

One must apply for that in the area where are living at the time.聽 聽 If there are any changes of details, address etc. then the certificate needs to be either reissued or some police offices will allow one just to tell them and they change the details on the official record聽 聽That must be done where one is living at that time

So Edward that means in Barcelona for you, providing you have the green paper and not just a white NIE cert !

Thanks for the reply.

Mine was the green piece of paper credit card size. So I guess I will be making my way to the NIE office with my documents showing my new address in Badalona and hopefully they give me a replacement.

Thanks

Ed

You seem to have misunderstood the important point I was hoping to make

It if not an NIE you have but an EU CITIZEN REGISTRATION CERTIFICATE聽 聽 (Sometimes incorrect called a residencia, which it certainly is not) .

An NIE聽 cert never needs updating, and also never provides any right to live in spain

It is not the NIE office you will be going to ( there is no such place)聽 but the聽 Extranjer铆a of the Policia Nacional or the equivalent in Catalonia

You can only make the appointment on line.聽 This should help
