Further information about Spanish registration numbers
The first step in doing private or comercial businesses in Spain
Everyone who conducts private or commercial business activities in Spain needs a Spanish identification number (NIF, CIF or NIE). The Spanish identification number is a form of identification used for a range of financial and legal transactions such as opening a bank account, setup a company, buying or selling shares, applications for residency or getting a driving license. Spanish tax numbers are issued by the Ministry of the Interior of Spain. There are three types of Spanish tax number issued. Spanish registration numbers are essential so that the Spanish Tax Agency can accurately calculate the fiscal responsibilities of everyone doing business in Spain. Even in cases where it is not obligatory for Spanish citizens to have ID (e.g. children aged under 14), a Spanish tax number will be needed if financial transactions are carried out.
The application of a NIF, CIF or NIE HAS NO TAX IMPLICATIONS, as long as the applicant is not doing active businesses in Spain and the number is not activated at the Spanish tax authorities!

2. CIF (Certificado de Identificación Fiscal)
The C.I.F. is the tax ID for all companies registered in Spain. It consists of a letter followed by 8 digits (BXXXXXXXX). The letter represents the type of company (e.g. Spanish SL company BXXXXXXXX or Spanish SA AXXXXXXXX). This number also serves as a Spanish VAT number.

The digital certificate is available for natural persons as well as companies and associations. Different types of formalities that can be done with the digital certificate depend on the different administrations (state, autonomic and local levels). The application of a digital certificate is INCLUDED in your NIF/CIF online application!
