Spanish Embassy in London
The Embassy of Spain in the United Kingdom represents the Spanish State before the British Government. It is at 39 Chesham Place, in Belgravia, and the Ambassador is Emma Aparici Vázquez de Parga.
Its own contact page sends consular emergencies (lost documents, visas, detained Spaniards) to the consulates general in Manchester, Edinburgh and London, and keeps a Brexit single window by email for Spaniards' rights questions: [email protected].

Back in 2018 the phones went unanswered, but his appointment was smooth and efficient, from the guard at the door to the clerk. He booked two months ahead because he was not yet on the consular register.

He and two friends spent months trying to reach anyone on behalf of a friend who had been without a passport for over a year, with no answer.

She complains that the phone numbers on the website and on Google lead to automated messages with no way to speak to anyone.

What an embassy does and what a consulate does
The Embassy is the political representation: relations with the UK Government, trade, culture, cooperation. There is one, in the capital.
A consulate general is where citizens get things done: passports, the consular register, civil registry, notary work, NIE numbers. Spain has three in the UK, each with its own district, and the one for London and the south is on Draycott Place, less than a kilometre away.
