Your white A4 NIE Number paper certificate (not a green card as some people call it) is a very important document when your living in Spain.
In Spain you will need it constantly, for getting connected to the internet, getting a new phone contract and even renting or buying a house. If you have lost your NIE Number certificate (the white paper that is stamped with your NIE Number on) you will need to request a new NIE certificate from the Police.
Getting a replacement certificate for your lost Spanish NIE Number and getting the NIE number replacement should be quick and easy as its already been given and the police just needs to run a search on their database to get it back.
If the Police search doesn’t come back with any results with your name you will need to get another NIE Number certificate.
If you manage to remember the number or keep a photocopy of the original certificate it will be much easier to request a new certificate. It will show up straight away in the data base at the police station.
Having the number to hand will speed up the process at the Police Station and you´ll have your new certificate Fast.
How do I get a New NIE Number certificate?
To get a replacement for your old NIE Number certificate you will need to basically go through the same process as getting the original once. You will need to fill in the forms, make an appointment at your local police station and pay the same taxes/fee’s
Have you been asked to provide the original NIE Number Certificate and you have lost it?

I have lost my NIE number that was issued to me in Benidorm at the police station 1992. Can I still obtain a copy of this please.

Hi Paul
As it was issued so long ago if you have not been using it its likely the tie is not active and you will need to apply for a new tie number.
I hope this helps?

Hi Lisa. Nice to see I’m not the only person who misplaces things 🙂
I had an NIE issued for a job I had when I lived in Madrid in 2003. No clue where the paperwork is now, nor the number.
If I go to a police station in Spain now, what will I need to show them to trace me and get a new copy?
Thanks in advance,
Max
Hi
You will now need to apply for a new nie. One from 2003 would have now expired.
I hope this helps?

Bonjour,
J’ai fait ma demande de NIE cet été, je l’ai payé etc, mais je n’ai pas pu aller au rendez-vous pour le récupérer. Savez vous si je peux le récupérer par email par hasard ?
Merci
Ik ben mijn NIE nummer kwijt.
Ik woon sedert 2014 in Spanje.
Mijn paspoort is verlopen. Ik kan niet naar Madrid om een nieuwe te halen.
Kan ik mijn NIE nummer per internet opzoeken ?
Salve, ho perso il foglio originale del NIE bianco e mi serve per poter finalizzare l’empadronamiento. Occorre fissare un appuntamento in polizia per poter farmelo stampare di nuovo?
Inoltre, sul mio NIE bianco, c’è scritto “NO residente”; è possibile risolvere il tutto tramite il vostro servizio? Perchè ora ho un contratto d’affitto.
Grazie
Hi
Please call the office on 0034 665556070 to discuss,
