We are confident that you will find the website both informative and useful. The site will assist you with all aspects relating to living, visiting, owning a holiday home or investing in Spain.
Our aim is to provide independent advice, information and support for all interested citizens in Spain, this to include visitors, expatriates and Spaniards alike. We cover all regions of Spain, the Balearic’s and Canary Islands. We believe that such an organisation is imperative, especially for hundreds of thousands of non-Spanish residents, who often struggle to understand their rights in a complex bureaucracy with the existing and ever changing laws and rules.

Important Update August 2025.
Citizens Advice Spain may be de-registered as a Charity and become Costa Advice Bureau.
After many years of running Citizens Advice Spain as a charity, we have made the difficult decision to possibly have to phase it out. Sadly, this is not what we want, but with so few donations, we have no option and simply do not have the funding to continue operating the charity in its current form. It may have to be phased out and de-registered.
In a few months if we find, that we have to close the charity, our services will continue under our original name — Costa Advice Bureau (CAB) — which many of you will remember from before the charity began. The CAB name will now be used for our website, Facebook page, and Facebook group.
•For simple, community questions, you can continue to use our CAB Facebook group as before. Please note: we take no responsibility for any information or advice provided by our members. To visit, click on the link below.
Since posting the above, we have had a surge of donors contributing 1£ a month on teaming, we are encouraging that to assure that we can meet our goal and continue as a registered charity.
•For detailed, personal advice, you will be directed to Ask for Advice with a donation, or to:
Spain info, our corporate partner for professional advice service.
This change allows us to keep helping people while making our work sustainable for the future.
Thank you for your support over the years, we look forward to continuing to help you in this new chapter.
Citizens Advice Bureau Spain is a registered charity, a Spanish Non-Profit/NPO/ONG organisation (Registration nº 11253).
We are quite convinced that we can make a difference and that we are stronger together!
