Númeró de Seguridad Social

After I got my NIE, I had to register for Social Security Number (Númeró de Seguridad Social) as well.

The place to do this was at Arc del Teatre 63. I arrived there at approximately 09:20. At the entrance, there was a police officer in front of a security gate. All the belongings containing any metal had to be removed, and they were X-rayed.

After I got through the security check, I asked the person at the information desk where should I go. He gave me a form to fill out, and sent to the second floor with a sequence number.

There were only a few people there, and the process was really quick. I could barely finished filling out the form, my number was called.

Unfortunately, the person behind the desk did not speak English at all, but this was not a problem, as we could understand each other by gestures.

Only the passport and the NIE was needed for this, and the filled out form they gave me.

After 5 minutes, he handed me a paper, which had my SSN on it, so this was very fast, no extra round were needed.

When I left the building, I headed straight to my workplace to hand them the photocopies of the NIE and the SSN, so they could start preparing the contract, which I will sign on Monday.
