How much does it cost to renew your NIE?
When you renew your NIE you pay official fees and, if an agency helps you, its fees. Here we explain each part so you know exactly what you will pay.
What you pay to renew your NIE
What is really renewed is not your NIE number (that never changes) but your residence permit and then your card (TIE). So the cost has several parts:
- Permit fee: charged by the Ministry to process your renewal. The amount depends on the type of permit.
- Card (TIE) fee: paid so the police issue your new card when you give your fingerprints.
- Agency fees, if you don’t do it yourself, plus VAT.
Official fees are updated from time to time and are not the same for every permit. That is why we don’t give you a generic figure: we calculate yours.
Watch out for prices that don’t include everything
Agencies often advertise only their own fees, and then you have to add the official fees, VAT or other costs. Before hiring anyone, always ask:
- Does the price include the official fees?
- Does it include VAT?
- Who files the application and who pays the fees?
- What happens if my case doesn’t qualify in the end?

Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to renew the NIE?
It depends on the type of permit: there is a fee for the permit and another for the card (TIE). With us you see a single final price with fees, VAT and our fees included before paying.
Are the fees paid separately?
Not with us. We pay them for you and they are included in the price. Your invoice shows them separately as outlays.
Can I renew my NIE myself?
Yes, you can file the renewal yourself. What an agency saves you is filling in the forms, paying the right fees, filing online and watching for notifications.
Do you refund me if I can’t renew?
Before paying we ask you the same questions as at the office. If, when reviewing your documents, we see your case doesn’t qualify, we refund 100%.
