About us
Helping you settle in Spain – in plain English
NewInSpain is a free online guide for people who are moving to Spain or already live here. We explain the Spanish system step by step – NIE, padrón, visas, healthcare, banking, tax, housing and everyday life – so you know what to do, where to go and what to bring.
Who we are
NewInSpain is run from Málaga by Marketing Group Málaga. We live here ourselves and know how confusing the paperwork can be when you are new. That is why we started a site that gives clear, practical answers without the jargon.

How we work
We check our guides against official sources such as the Spanish government, the tax agency and the town halls, and we update them when the rules change. Our guides are general information, not legal or tax advice – for your own case, always ask a professional.
Advertising and independence
NewInSpain is free to read because local businesses advertise with us. Ads and sponsored content are always clearly labelled, and a business can never buy a recommendation in our guides. Read about advertising.
