EX-02 family reunification application
A practical guide to applying to bring eligible family members to Spain.
Where do I submit EX-02?
At the competent Extranjería office in the sponsor’s residence province, or through Mercurio.
Use initial ordinary reunification, not renewal, EX-19 or EX-24. Save the signed submission receipt.
Several relatives
Each relative needs an identified application and evidence of their own category.
A one-person appointment does not automatically admit two files. Use the office’s booking capacity or separate filings; do not change the requested relative count to bypass booking limits.
Submission is complete only with registration
Uploading files or saving a draft does not register the application.
Check the final receipt identifies the applicant, date, authority and registration reference; monitor the notice channel it records.
What to do
Finish registration and keep its receipt before treating the application as filed.
Steps
- Check eligibility and complete EX-02.
- Attach the relative-specific packet and the fee receipt.
- For office filing, obtain its appointment; online, identify and sign with the accepted credential.
- Keep the final registration receipt, attachments and notice channel.
Basis
Art.68.2–3: the sponsor submits the initial form and evidence. Hoja8: residence-province Extranjería or Mercurio. A draft does not prove registration.
