Verified reviews of this service

It is an official notarial document in which a person formally declares before a notary that they take responsibility for a traveler during their stay in Spain. This document includes the commitment to provide accommodation, maintenance, and cover the visitor's basic needs.

Embassies and consulates request this certificate as a guarantee that the visa applicant has economic and logistical support during their stay in the country.

Any person with legal residence in Spain who wishes to support the visa application of a relative, friend, or acquaintance can request this certificate. The most common cases are:

• Direct relatives (parents, children, siblings, spouses)
• Unmarried partners
• Close friends
• Student tutors
• Companies hiring foreign workers

It is necessary to demonstrate sufficient financial capacity to back the commitments stated in the certificate.

Yes, the procedure is 100% digital thanks to notarial video conferencing. You don't need to travel to any physical notary office. The process includes:

• Sending documentation through a secure platform
• Prior review of all documents
• Video conference with a licensed notary for signing
• Delivery of the certificate in digital format with qualified electronic signature

The document has the same legal validity as one signed in person at a notary office.

The usual timeframe is 24 to 48 hours from when we complete the video conference with the notary. The total time depends on:

• Speed in sending your complete documentation
• Availability of schedules for the video conference
• Correct verification of all data

If you need the document urgently, we offer express service that can significantly reduce timeframes. Consult us about your specific case.

Notarial certificates issued by licensed notaries in Spain have international validity. However, some countries may require:

• Hague Apostille: for countries that are signatories to the Hague Convention (more than 120 countries)
• Consular legalization: for countries that are not signatories to the convention

We advise you on whether your document needs an apostille or legalization according to the destination country and, if necessary, we handle these additional procedures.

The specific content varies according to consulate requirements, but generally includes:

• Providing accommodation throughout the stay
• Covering maintenance and food expenses
• Being responsible for emergency medical expenses
• Guaranteeing the traveler's return to their country of origin
• Providing documentation about income or financial solvency

Before signing, we review all commitments with you so you have complete clarity about the scope of the document.

Yes, consulates generally require you to demonstrate sufficient financial solvency to fulfill the certificate's commitments. Common documents include:

• Income certificate or latest tax return
• Bank statements from the last 3-6 months
• Employment contract or recent payslips
• Property ownership certificate

Specific requirements vary by country and visa type. We tell you exactly what additional documentation you need according to your case.

The cost depends on several factors:

• Complexity of the certificate and commitments included
• Need for additional services (apostille, translations)
• Urgency of the procedure
• Notarial fees according to current legislation

Contact us with the details of your case and we will provide you with an exact quote without obligation. The price includes complete advice, document review, notarial video conference, and delivery of the certified document.

If the certificate is correctly prepared and meets legal requirements, it is very unlikely to be rejected. To minimize risks:

• We verify the specific requirements of the consulate before drafting
• We review all supporting documentation
• We include all required data and commitments
• The notary formally certifies the content

If any issue arises, we advise you on the necessary modifications and handle any correction at no additional cost.

Once signed before a notary, the certificate cannot be modified because it already has certified legal value. If you need to make changes, you must process a new certificate with updated content.

That's why it's essential to carefully review all data before the notarial video conference: full names, dates, addresses, relationship between parties, and commitments assumed.

Our team reviews all details with you before signing to avoid errors and ensure the document is correct from the start.
