If you have already given your fingerprints for your TIE card in Almería province, you can check your lot here. Your lot number is normally printed on the resguardo you received after the fingerprint appointment. You may also see it written as lote TIE or lote de Extranjería.
Make sure you select the right office before checking. Almería, El Ejido and Roquetas de Mar update their lots independently, so one office can move forward while another stays unchanged. Your own TIE status depends on the office handling your card.
A fingerprint resguardo contains several numbers, so it is easy to pick the wrong one. To check whether your TIE card is ready, you need the actual lot number.
For example, if your resguardo shows:
The number after N: is not your lot number. The layout of the resguardo can vary, but in this example you should check lot 015.
These are the Almería province offices currently shown on Form24 for TIE lot checks and related procedures. If you completed your process in El Ejido or Roquetas de Mar, do not use the Almería city lot as a reference - each office follows its own sequence.
Your NIE is your foreigner identification number in Spain. It can appear on different documents and remains the same across many procedures.
The TIE is the physical residence card. When you have a TIE, your NIE number is printed on that card.
So if you are waiting for the physical card after giving fingerprints, the information you need to follow is the lot for your TIE.
Choose Almería, select the office linked to your application and enter your lot number. Form24 compares it with the latest available information for that office and shows whether your TIE card may already be ready for collection.
That depends on the office. Collection rules are not always identical, so before travelling, check the resguardo from your fingerprint appointment and any instructions given for your office.
Form24 also shows available office information, including whether a cita previa is indicated for TIE collection.
If an appointment is required, use the official website and choose:
POLICIA - RECOGIDA DE TARJETA DE IDENTIDAD DE EXTRANJERO (TIE)
There is no single timetable for the whole province. El Ejido may publish a new lot while Almería or Roquetas de Mar has not changed yet, and later the situation may be the other way round.
If your card is still not ready, the Form24 calculator looks at recent lot progress for your selected office and gives you an approximate date.
It is a practical estimate, not an official collection date. It is useful for getting a rough idea of how much longer the wait may be.
AutoTrack can do the checking for you. It follows your lot number at the selected office and, when your lot number is ready according to the latest available information, Form24 sends you a notification by e-mail and WhatsApp.
Form24 shows the latest available lot information. Occasionally, an office or an official source may publish an update and later correct or change it.
If collecting your card means travelling to another town or buying tickets, do not make significant travel plans only because your lot appears as ready. Confirm the information with the relevant office first. The final confirmation is the actual handover of the card.
It is normally shown on the resguardo from your fingerprint appointment. For example, if it says 2026/015, N: 150, the lot you need to check is 015, not 150.
No. If your procedure belongs to CNP EL EJIDO, check that office's lot. Almería, El Ejido and Roquetas de Mar update their lots independently.
Each office has its own lot sequence and update schedule. A lot number from one office does not tell you whether cards at another office are ready.
It depends on the office. Check your resguardo and the information for your office first. If an appointment is required, book it through the official website.
No. Form24 is an independent service that helps users check and track TIE lots. For official rules about documents, appointments or card collection, follow the information provided by the relevant office.
