Observations |
For its administrative procedures, the URV will accept attested documents issued by:
(*) In accordance with article 14.4 of Royal Decree 1390/2007, of 29 October, which approves the Regulations governing the honorary consular agents of Spain. Legalisations made abroad by the honorary consular agents are also valid. For documents issued in a foreign language, the attesting entity must make a photocopy of the original and mark the photocopy with the stamp of attestation. Only one stamp of attestation will be issued per document, unless it can be convincingly demonstrated that more than one attestation is needed for the administrative procedure in question. |
If there are any differences between translations, the Catalan version prevails.
