Removals to a not EU country are not VAT taxable.

Passport / ID

Before moving check if your travel documents are still valid. Sometimes it is very helpful to let translate authenticate such documents like birth certificate, marriage certificate etc. in the language of the country.

Spanish driving licences are not unlimited valid and when you advance in age, you have to make tests for prolongation of the driving licence.

Residence permit / work permit / visa
