Do you need to carry out your immigration procedure but are not sure which is the immigration office you should attend to? Where are they located and how can I get there? And most importantly, how can I make an appointment?
In this article you will find the complete list of immigration offices in Barcelona, the procedures that are carried out in each one (unlike those carried out at the police station), their opening hours and location; and the direct link to request an appointment online.
Immigration Office vs Police Station
Before looking at the list of the different immigration offices in the city of Barcelona, it is very important to make this distinction.
Although many procedures for foreigners are also carried out at the police station, we should not confuse them with the immigration offices.
The procedures vary depending on the police station in question, but the police station will always be the place where, for example, you complete your fingerprinting, get your TIE issued, or get your return authorization.
You can find the complete list of national police stations for immigration procedures here, including the specific procedures that are carried out in each one.
Which are the immigration offices in Barcelona?

You will have to go to one or the other depending on the procedure you need to carry out, as each office specializes in a different one.
