Valencia relocation services: a move that is already sorted

Our Valencia relocation services take on the queue-and-paperwork side of moving abroad: apartment shortlist, NIE appointment, padr贸n, school place, bank account, fiber install and car registration. Your first weekend is at the Mercado Central, not the funcionario office. Start with a consultation.

Our core Valencia relocation services

Everything you need to go from "outsider" to "local expert" in weeks, not years.

Visa and residency strategy

From the Digital Nomad Visa and Non-Lucrative Visa to family reunification. We coordinate with legal partners so your file is complete and correct on the first submission.

Home search and lease negotiation

The 2026 rental market is competitive. We use our local network to find homes across Valencia neighborhoods like Ruzafa, El Carmen and Benimaclet and negotiate leases on your behalf - or coordinate a property purchase if you are ready to buy. For move-in day itself, our cleaning and maintenance directories cover the rest.

Family moves and school admissions

Choosing a school in Valencia? We manage admissions and arrange tours for international schools in Valencia.

Arrival paperwork: NIE, TIE and padr贸n

NIE, TIE, empadronamiento (booked through the notoriously slow cita previa system), bank accounts, and utilities. Walk into your new life with everything connected and fully compliant - whether you are moving from the USA or Ireland.

Pet relocation to Spain

Moving with cats, dogs, or exotic pets? We handle EU pet passports, vet health certificates, microchipping compliance, and import paperwork so your animals arrive stress-free.

Tax and financial planning

Connecting you with specialized Spanish tax advisors to optimize your setup, handle the Beckham Law, and manage international asset transfers.

Vehicle import and driving licence

Expert assistance with importing your vehicle to Spain, local registration, and exchanging a UK driving licence or obtaining a Spanish one.

Healthcare and health insurance

Navigating the Spanish public and private healthcare systems. We help you find the right private insurance and register you with the local health center. Once you're settled, our directories of massage and spa and nutritionists in Valencia round out the everyday wellness picture.

Why choose our Valencia relocation agency

A Valencia relocation agency is more than a checklist service. We stand in the room for you: when we speak to a landlord, a school registrar, or a funcionario on your behalf, you inherit a local reputation we have built since 2016. That is the difference between a rejected NIE file and an appointment that goes through the first time. Compare what you will spend with our cost of living guide before you commit.

ValenciaMove was founded by Michael Bastin, a Belgian expat who has lived in Valencia since 2016 and runs the translation company BeTranslated. Our relocation agency works hand in hand with vetted local immigration lawyers, gestor铆as and tax advisers, so you get specialist advice without hunting for it yourself. Start with home finding or renting support, then get in touch to scope the right package.

Valencia relocation packages: what each one covers

We build each package around your household, so pricing is tailored to your situation. Tell us through the form who is moving and what you need, and we send a written quote. Custom add-ons (pet relocation, vehicle import, complex tax setup) are quoted on top.

Valencia relocation services: questions before you book

What is included in your Valencia relocation services?
The Guided Housing relocation covers the apartment search and shortlist, viewings and lease negotiation, plus your NIE appointment and padr贸n registration. Families can add guided school counselling to shortlist the right schools.

Visa strategy, tax setup, bank accounts, utilities and pet relocation are coordinated alongside it through our vetted local partner network.
How far ahead should I start planning my move?
Three to six months before your move is the comfortable window, because the visa route sets the pace. Consulate appointments and document apostilles are the slow parts, not the flight.

If you need a school place for September, start earlier: admissions at Valencia's international schools close well before the term does. Moving inside the EU with no visa to arrange, six to eight weeks is workable.
Do you work with non-EU citizens?
Yes, and it is most of what we do. We coordinate Digital Nomad Visa and Non-Lucrative Visa files with legal partners, then handle the arrival side that catches non-EU newcomers out: the NIE, the TIE within one month of arrival, the padr贸n, and a bank account that will actually open for someone with no Spanish history.
Can you help if I have already arrived in Valencia?
Yes. Plenty of clients reach us after landing, usually stuck on the same things: a cita previa that will not appear, a landlord asking for paperwork they cannot produce yet, or a school place that fell through.

We can pick up mid-move and take over only the parts that are blocked, rather than the whole package.
What do relocation services in Valencia cost?
Pricing is on request. Tell us what you need through the form and you receive a written quote after your first message, with third-party costs such as sworn translations, the Modelo 790-012 tasa and school admission fees listed separately.

Because search scope varies so much between clients, the quote is set once we understand what you actually need.
What is the first consultation like?
It starts with the form, no sales pitch. It exists to work out whether we are the right fit and which parts of the move you genuinely need help with.

If you want a full strategy session afterwards, the paid Pre-Move Planning consultation lasts one hour, and its fee is credited against any ValenciaMove service you go on to book. Ask us for the current rate.
