NIE certificate
A certificate confirming the NIE you were already assigned in the past, for anyone who's lost the document or doesn't remember the number. The NIE never expires or changes, so you don't request a new one.

Who it's for
People who had a NIE in the past and don't keep the document or don't remember the number.
Who CAN'T apply for it

Anything you remember about when it was assigned

Start with this procedureFrequently asked questions about this procedure
Do I need to remember when I got my NIE?
It helps, but it's not required. Anything you remember, such as approximate year, city, or the procedure you requested it for, speeds up the search; without it, the process just takes a bit longer.
Is it the same form as applying for a new NIE?
Yes, the certificate is requested with the same official EX-15 form, marked as a certification request rather than an assignment request.
