Spanish Consulate in Newcastle (honorary)

Middlesbrough and Redcar and Cleveland sit in the ceremonial county of North Yorkshire, which Manchester’s page lists as its own. Edinburgh’s page (8 May 2025) and the Embassy’s name them expressly as Edinburgh’s, as part of the Tees Valley. This guide follows the express mention; if you live there, confirm with Edinburgh before booking. This is an honorary vice-consulate under the Consulate General of Spain in Edinburgh. According to that office, it can offer consular assistance, passports for children under 12 and contact with the local Spanish community. It does not issue adult passports, visas or powers of attorney: those are handled by the Consulate General of Spain in Edinburgh. Visits are by appointment.

The honorary vice-consulate of Spain for the north-east of England is called Newcastle, but the vice-consul, a professor, sees people on the Durham University campus, by appointment. It depends on the Consulate General in Edinburgh, which covers this corner of England.

What you can sort out without going to the consulate

Leave the consular register without going in when you move away: Edinburgh takes the request by email and sends you the deregistration certificate.
Track a passport or visa already applied for at sutramiteconsular.maec.es with the code on your receipt.
Book a BLS visa appointment and fill in the forms online before you go: the visa itself is lodged at BLS, not at the consulate.
