Police, health, court, land registry, post office, tax office, consulate: offices you rarely need — and then need at once.
This is not a page of Altea Town Council. alteamar.es is a private site and not a public authority: we do not accept applications or advise on individual cases. Only information from the competent office is binding: see the links for each office on this page. Like a directory, we gather here what is otherwise spread across many websites: an overview, not instructions.
