“Absolutely agree. UGE has become more demanding lately. I had two rejections because of this. Now we need to appeal.”
Conclusion
According to Spainguru’s Facebook group members, while e-apostilles might be legally valid, applicants have reported issues with their acceptance by the Spanish immigration office (UGE) when submitting documents for the Spain Digital Nomad Visa.
Some members have experienced rejections and had to appeal their applications. To avoid complications and potential delays, it is strongly recommended to use traditional apostille services for Companies House documents.
