Frequently asked questions about filling in the "Your legal information" form

The "First and last names" (in the case of self-employed users), "Company name" (in the case of companies) and "Tax identification number" fields are automatically checked as the user enters the information in the form. This check is carried out with the Spanish Tax Agency in order to confirm that the first and last names or company name matches the tax identification number provided.
Therefore, when filling in these fields, please take into account that you must indicate the information as it is registered with the Tax Agency (including commas, periods, etc.). If it is not filled in properly, the field will be marked in red and you will get the message "This seems incorrect. Try to enter it again," as shown in the following image:

If an error is generated, we recommend that you make sure you have included the information exactly as it appears on the census card from the Tax Agency.
In addition, the Tax Agency provides citizens with a tool to check a taxpayer identification number for census purposes, which is accessible with a digital certificate. Click here to access the tool.
