Malaga province's 'gestores', who help smooth paperwork, launch English website

The official association for Malaga of the advisors who help sort out bureaucratic affairs and paperwork worries for their clients, such as tax declarations, residency or driving papers, has launched a new website with information in English to help foreign residents. The association of 'gestores administativos' (Colegio de Gestores Administrativos) has prepared the information because it says it wants to become even closer to the foreign population in Malaga and its province.

On the new site, which can be found here, international residents are able to read up on everything about the procedures they need to go through when first arriving on the Costa.

The association says that the website will be updated regularly and will contain the latest news from the Spanish authorities that could be interesting to foreigners, both from the EU and outside the European Union. All of the topics published are chosen by 'gestores', qualified professionals that can help. The website also has a list of 'gestores' who are members and allows a user to ask a question to get a personal answer.

A 'gestor administrativo' is a certified professional graduated in Law, Economics, Business or Political Science that has also passed an exam organised by the ministry of Finance or who has an MA in Administrative Management.
