Spain’s fast-tracked migrant regularisation set to open in April; unions hold preparation workshops
CCOO says Spain’s long-awaited extraordinary regularisation for undocumented migrants will be published in the BOE in early April, triggering a three-month application window. Applicants must prove five months’ residence in Spain and a clean criminal record; successful cases will receive a renewable 12-month residence permit. The process could integrate hundreds of thousands of workers into the formal economy, easing labour shortages but creating short-term administrative bottlenecks for employers and extranjería offices.
