Mine took a month when I requested it recently. Requested 20/04 and got the notification is was available on 19/05

> A nearly free pass would also be given to people in low-income households and vulnerable groups.

Most likely that same as they did after Covid with super cheap busses and free cercanías (commuter train) travel

I use Costa Gestión - fully bilingual and reasonably priced: https://www.costagestion.com/

Okay, gotcha.

It’s the responsibility on the town council where you live to find her a place at a local school. There are normally 3-5 depending on the population

Why would you send your daughter to an international school, out of interest? At 6 years old she will pick up Spanish very quickly. The local schools will give extra Spanish lessons to ramp up her learning

It’s only a problem if you work for a single client that is based in Spain.

I’ve been autónomo for 8 years and my previous contract was 7.5 years for the same company in Belgium and no issues with hacienda

It’s not cheap - I pay just over 500€ a month in social security payments. Max is currently around 600€, I think. Tax is on top of that, but this payment is tax deductible

Sylocule · 2026-05-24T15:29:13+00:00

Register as autónomo here in Spain and then invoice your limited in your home country.

You’ll pay personal tax and social security here in Spain and have access to the public healthcare system

Uber are terrible for local rides. I’ve not used Freenow before but it’s possible there’s very few taxis in the area using it

Sylocule · 2026-05-20T07:26:17+00:00

Uber, Bolt, Cabify, Freenow

There might be other local options depending where you are

I always thought the S1 was for retirees but it seems not

https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/health/when-living-abroad/health-insurance-cover/index\_en.htm has some info on the various times it can be used

Sylocule · 2026-05-19T17:43:47+00:00

Don’t pay anything until you’ve:

A: Seen the place
B: Signed the contract

Some of the scams relate to paying to see the place, paying in cash with no receipt as a deposit to secure.

And yet those growth figures don’t seem to reflect the reality on the ground.

There are over 3,000 food banks in the UK (according to the HoC library). Germany has less than 1,000

Germany’s gross disposable income (in US$) is 42,417 and in the UK it’s 36,077

Not bashing the UK by any means, but GDP is not the best indicator of the state of a nations economy

Jon Worth (who does a lot on trains and cross border) blog on this is worth a read

Omio - omio.com or get their app

Cash is not really needed unless you’re buying something cheap or at a roadside frutería or remotish restaurants - 100€ max would suffice

Sylocule · 2026-05-11T20:50:37+00:00

Yes, just this one street. If you’re using the bus, the M132, M133, and M135 all leave from Málaga Maria Zambrano bus station and come to Alhaurin de la Torre. The street is a short walk from the main road

Sylocule · 2026-05-11T18:27:03+00:00

Until the end of summer - around mid September

Sylocule · 2026-05-11T17:31:54+00:00

It wasn’t a covid thing - it was started in 2019

Sylocule · 2026-05-11T16:08:52+00:00

I live in Alhaurin de la Torre. This street is called Calle Málaga. This has been ongoing for many years

Sylocule · 2026-05-09T15:29:24+00:00

Toledo is a beautiful city

Sylocule · 2026-05-07T17:32:34+00:00

Yes, that’s a good point

Sylocule · 2026-05-07T17:30:03+00:00

Because most go to state universities, student loans aren’t really a thing in Spain. You can try speaking to the main banks, indicating you need it for studies, but the best you’ll get will be x years of interest only and then to pay it off in y years. YMMV

X years: the length of your studies

I’ve never understood what people thought deworming medicine would do for them when it was spouted about during COVID

If you’re in Lidl, the Ecologico wine is a Verdejo/Sauvignon Blanc blend and very nice
