Research stay in Spain (EX-00 stay authorisation and TIE)
If you’re coming to a Spanish centre to do research for a limited time, this is the route. It lets you apply for the stay authorisation (EX-00) and then get the TIE so you’re legally identified here.

- 1.Check it fits: you’ll do research at an entity in Spain and you have a convenio de acogida signed with dates and conditions.
- 2.Go to https://sede.administracionespublicas.gob.es/mercurio/ and submit the EX-00 application with Cl@ve or digital certificate; attach passport, convenio, insurance, proof of means and (if relevant) criminal and medical certificates. Generate and pay the 790-052 fee.
- 3.Watch notifications on https://carpetaciudadana.gob.es: if they ask you to correct something, upload the missing docs within the deadline.
- 4.With a favourable resolution: if you were outside Spain, apply for the research stay visa at your Spanish Consulate presenting the resolution. If you were in Spain on a legal stay, go to the next step.
- 5.Once in Spain (or if you already were), book a fingerprints appointment for the TIE at https://sede.administracionespublicas.gob.es/icpplustie/ choosing your province and “TOMA DE HUELLAS (Expedición de TIE)”.
- 6.Go to the police station with passport, resolution, photos, empadronamiento (if requested) and proof of payment of fee 790-012 (~16€). They’ll take your fingerprints.
- 7.Collect the TIE at the same police station when they tell you (usually takes 3–5 weeks).
