In the event that these documents are not available at the time of pre-registration, as the student has not completed their degree studies or for some other reason, it may be accepted conditionally but the documents must be submitted before the start of enrolment. Preference will always be given to students who are in possession of all documentation at the time of pre-registration.

1.3. Requirements for documents issued abroad

Documents issued abroad must be official, original copies issued by the competent authorities, and must be legalized via diplomatic channels. This procedure must be carried out in each of the following bodies and in the order indicated:

1. Ministry of Education of the country of origin, for degree certificates and certificates of studies, and the relevant ministry for certificates of birth and nationality.
2. Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the country where the documents were issued.
3. Diplomatic or consular representation of Spain in the country where the documents were issued.

For the legalization of documents from the signatory countries of the Hague Convention of 5 October 1961, the requirements set out above are replaced by the apostille affixed to the document by the competent authority of the state where the document was issued.

It is not necessary to legalize documents issued in the countries of the European Union provided there is no doubt as to their authenticity and legitimacy, nor their official nature.

The aforementioned documents must be accompanied by an official translation into Spanish, should they be written in another language. This translation can be rendered:

- By any diplomatic or consular representation of Spain abroad.

- By the diplomatic or consular representation in Spain of the country of which the applicant is a subject or, where applicable, of the country where the document was issued.

- By official, sworn translators duly authorized or registered in Spain.

 Generally, it is only necessary to provide an official translation of the subject programme in cases where it cannot be assessed adequately without one.

If the original document is written in a non-Latin alphabet, the translation should include the name of the qualification in the original language but transcribed into the Latin alphabet, rather than a translation of that name.

Original documents may be submitted together with a photocopy, and they will be returned to the person concerned following their authentication.

If photocopies have been compared and legalized by the diplomatic or consular representation of Spain in the country where the document was issued or before a notary public, it is not necessary to submit the original at the same time.
