Remote communication with the administration

Article 14.2 of Law 39/2015 of 1 October on the Common Administrative Procedure of the Public Authorities provides that the following data subjects, among others, are obliged to interact with the Public Authorities by electronic means in order to perform any administrative procedure:

  • Legal persons (political parties and federations of parties).
  • Entities without any legal personality (coalitions and groupings of voters)
  • Any who represent an interested party who is obliged to interact electronically with the Administration (Administrators of political formations).

They must therefore have an electronic certificate for the political formation or, if necessary, obtain one in order to communicate electronically with the Public Authorities. They can find out how to obtain a certificate on the following website: https://www.sede.fnmt.gob.es(A new window will open)

The communications of the Directorate General for Domestic Policy will be sent electronically via the Citizen Folder, which means that communications on paper will no longer be sent. The Citizen Folder is a web portal that enables users, simply and without having to register, to find out more about matters of interest to them in relation to the Public Authorities, such as the status of their cases and the notifications and communications that they receive. It can be accessed via the following link:

They must also send this Directorate General for Domestic Policy a copy of the formation’s Tax Identification Card, as well as a contact email address to which information regarding notifications will be sent. Upon the basis of the obligation to submit documentation by telematic means, this information must be submitted by electronic Register, using either of the two options:

A digital certificate is required to submit the documentation in both cases.
