This procedure includes both ordinary channels and an extraordinary regularization scheduled between April and June 2026. Interested parties will be able to carry out their procedures at designated Foreigners' Offices and police stations, in addition to having online options for greater efficiency.

The main locations for in-person processing, which requires a mandatory prior appointment, include the Foreigners' Office at Calle La Marina, 20, in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, and the Foreigners' Unit in Santa Cruz de La Palma. Police stations in San Sebastián de La Gomera, Puerto de la Cruz, and San Cristóbal de La Laguna will also be enabled. Appointments can be obtained through the Foreigners' electronic headquarters or by calling 060.

In addition to physical offices, the process allows applications to be submitted at enabled Social Security Offices and Post Offices in the province. The use of the online platform Mercurio is strongly recommended, especially for those with a digital certificate, to avoid travel and reduce waiting times.

To access the extraordinary regularization of 2026, applicants must meet basic requirements such as valid registration, a valid passport, and at least five months of continuous residence prior to the application. The deadline opens on April 16, 2026, so it is advisable to prepare the documentation in advance. The main office in Santa Cruz de Tenerife operates Monday to Friday, from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM, although hours may vary during summer periods.

This process represents a crucial opportunity to regularize the administrative situation of many people in the Canary Islands, facilitating their social and labor integration in the archipelago.
