What is this for?

Cl@ve is personal access to supported public services. Each service decides which registration level it accepts.

When can it be useful?

  • Choose a valid registration method and distinguish basic from advanced access.

Where do I arrange it?

  • Cl@ve: Cómo puedo registrarme
  • Cl@ve: Registro · preguntas frecuentes
  • Cl@ve: Videoidentificación automática
  • Cl@ve: Carta de invitación
  • Cl@ve: Certificado / DNIe

What may I need first?

  • Identity document for registration
  • Preferred registration route
  • Does your intended service require advanced registration?

Documents to prepare

  • Your own accepted DNI/NIE and the validity/support details requested on the official page.
  • For a foreign applicant: check the required residence document and accompanying passport/identity evidence.
  • A mobile number you control, plus your email address. Do not enter passwords, SMS codes or certificate files in SpainForm.

Practical route

  • Open the intended public service and note the required Cl@ve level; basic registration is insufficient for some services.
  • Choose the official route below and confirm its identity and equipment requirements.
  • For an office visit, find a participating registration office and check whether an appointment is required.
  • Complete identity verification on the official service, then check that the mobile number and email belong to you.
  • Store activation instructions privately and test the intended service. A successful registration does not mean an application to that service was filed.

What comes next?

  • Keep account recovery and contact details current.
  • Each person needs their own account and mobile association. Ask the office about a minor's personal attendance and guardian evidence.

Important to check

Preparation aid, not an official form or decision. The competent authority confirms eligibility, required evidence, fees and the outcome. Items marked for confirmation remain unresolved.
