If you have already completed your fingerprint appointment for your TIE card in the province of Alicante, you can check the status of your lot here. Your lot number is usually shown on the resguardo you received after the fingerprint appointment. It may also appear as lote TIE or lote de Extranjería.
There are several offices in the province of Alicante that process TIE cards, and each office manages its own lots separately. This is why you should always check the same office where you completed your fingerprint appointment. The lot in Alicante, Benidorm, Elche, Torrevieja or another office does not show the progress of the lot in a different office.
Your resguardo may contain several different numbers, so it is easy to be unsure which one you need. To check whether your TIE card is ready, you must identify the correct lot number.
For example, if your resguardo shows something like:
The number after N: is not the lot number. The format of the resguardo may look slightly different, but for the check you need to find the number that corresponds to the lot.
Find the office where you completed your fingerprint appointment for your TIE card. If you do not remember the exact office name, compare the address with the one shown on your resguardo or other documents you received.
NIE is the identification number assigned to a foreign person in Spain. It is a personal number and may appear on different official documents.
A TIE card is the physical card that proves your status as a foreign resident in Spain when it applies to you. Your NIE number is also shown on the TIE card.
NIE and TIE card are therefore not the same. NIE is a number, while the TIE card is a physical document. To check the lot and see whether your card is ready to collect, use the information related to your TIE card.
Select the province of Alicante, choose the office where you completed your fingerprint appointment and enter your lot number. Form24 will compare it with the latest available information for that office and show whether your TIE card may already be ready to collect.
It depends on the office. Some offices in the province of Alicante require an appointment to collect the TIE card, while others may not.
Check the resguardo you received after your fingerprint appointment. It normally explains how you should collect the card. On Form24 you can also check whether your office says that an appointment is required for TIE card collection.
If you need an appointment, book it on the official website and select:
POLICIA - RECOGIDA DE TARJETA DE IDENTIDAD DE EXTRANJERO (TIE)
The waiting time can be different for each office. Every office in the province of Alicante manages its own lots, so some offices may move faster than others.
If your TIE card is not ready yet, you can use the Form24 calculator. The system looks at how the lots in your office have moved recently and calculates an estimated date.
This is only an estimate and not an official date. It can help you understand approximately how much longer you may need to wait.
AutoTrack checks your lot number automatically. When your lot number is ready according to the latest available information, Form24 will send you a notification by e-mail and WhatsApp.
Form24 shows the latest available information about lot numbers. Sometimes an office may publish an update and later correct or change it.
For this reason, we recommend not buying tickets, arranging a special trip to collect your TIE card or making significant expenses only because your lot appears as ready. If you need to travel specifically to collect your card, it is better to confirm the information with the relevant office first. The final confirmation is the actual collection of your TIE card.
It is usually shown on the resguardo you received after your fingerprint appointment. For example, if it shows 2026/015, N: 150, your lot number is 015, not 150.
Because each office manages its lots separately. Lots in Benidorm, Torrevieja, Alicante, Elche and other offices may move at different speeds.
It depends on the office. Check your resguardo and the information for your office on Form24. If an appointment is required, book the TIE card collection through the official website.
No. Form24 is an independent service that helps users check and track TIE card lots. For official requirements about documents, appointments or TIE card collection, always check the information from the relevant office.
