Apply quickly and safely for your Certificate of Habitability (Cédula de Habitabilidad)
The Cédula de Habitabilidad, or Certificate of Habitability, is an official document that confirms a property meets the legal minimum requirements for housing in Spain. It is required in many regions – such as the Comunidad Valenciana – in order to legally occupy, sell, rent, or connect the property to utility services (electricity, water, gas). Property owners or buyers should ensure that a valid certificate is available or apply for one if needed.
