Passports beyond the EU

Huellas TIE Vigo: which papers do I take?
Form EX-17, signed; the passport with your visa and a photocopy; one recent colour photo; proof of the 790-012 payment; a padrón volante; and, for a permit decided in Spain, its resolution.
Extranjería Vigo: where are permits to work or reside decided?
At Sede 2 of the Oficina de Extranjería, Rúa Teófilo Llorente 4, bajo (902 022 222), which belongs to the Delegación del Gobierno en Galicia and opens 9:00–14:00 on weekdays. After a permit is granted, the card is a police matter.
I am British and have lived in Baiona since 2019 with the old green certificate. What now?
Exchange it for the Withdrawal Agreement TIE: book fingerprints with Pontevedra as the province and take the certificate with your passport.
My wife is Portuguese and I am Brazilian. Which card is mine?
Yours is the residence card for a European’s family member, applied for on form EX-19 and listed by the Oficina de Extranjería on Rúa Teófilo Llorente 4. Her own registration as a resident comes first.
I study at the Universidade de Vigo on a visa and want to stay a second year. What comes first?
Apply for the extension before your stay expires. Stays for studies are on the list of Teófilo Llorente and can be filed online on Mercurio; policia.es lists extensions at the Brigada in Pontevedra and other units.
My renewal is pending and I have to fly home. What do I need?
An autorización de regreso, which the Delegación del Gobierno places with the police; policia.es lists it in Pontevedra, Tui, Vilagarcía de Arousa and Salvaterra de Miño.
