Mayor Josep Maria Vallès and Deputy Mayor Jordi Puigneró announced that all applicants over 16 years old must now appear in person. Third-party authorizations will no longer be accepted for these administrative procedures.
“"We will register people who live in Sant Cugat, but not people who live in another municipality or at the other end of the State."
The Local Police will conduct unannounced home visits, primarily at night or early morning, to verify actual residency in suspicious cases. This follows the discovery of 4,000 irregular registrations last summer.
For homeless individuals, the city will maintain a special registration process, provided they have a report from Social Services confirming their vulnerable status and lack of a fixed address.
