Spain Validity of Green Residencia Certificate
There seem to have been a number of cases recently where UK Expat residents have been stopped at roadside checks by the security forces to be told, when checking their documents, that the green residencia card is no longer valid.
Whether these are just isolated incidents or perhaps a wider incidence of the authorities not being in possession of the correct information, the situation has not changed, Green residencia certificates are valid and will remain so. It is not necessary to exchange them for TIE.
San Fulgencio Councillor for Foreign Residents, Darren Parmenter, has pointed me in the direction of two very useful documents, both issued by the Spanish Government, the first of which, a single page in both English and Spanish, he recommends printing off and keeping close at hand.
Dozens of people sent back to UK from Alicante for not having Residencia

Reflections on the hurt of Brexit and the British future in Spain
\n );document.write( \n \n\n );}
The UK finally said farewell to the European Union on January 1 as the Brexit trade deal kicked in.
It’s a moment that genuinely led to moments of personal reflection for me over the futility of it all, but at least some consolation to be living in Spain, which is still under the EU umbrella.
This final unshackling UK unshackling from the EU was much more profound in my mind than a few British fishing boats now being allowed to catch more mackerel.
