Reactivation of the National Migration Institute's online appointment system

  1. Renewal of resident card.
  2. Exchange of FMM for a resident card.
  3. Permission to work.
  4. Replacement of immigration document.
  5. Notification of change of address.
  6. Notification of change of workplace.
  7. Notification of change of marital status.
  8. Notification of change of nationality.
  9. Notification of name change.
  10. Change of residence status to temporary resident by family unit.
  11. Change of residence status from temporary resident to permanent resident.
  12. Change of residence status to permanent resident status by family unit.

Appointments to submit the rest of the procedures that have not been included in the list referred to above must be requested in person at the offices of the National Migration Institute, for which the complete respective file must be shown (that is, all the documentation required to submit the procedure in question).

It should be noted that the implementation of the aforementioned appointment system is still in a preliminary phase, since the total number of procedures that each user can submit per day has not yet been determined with certainty, so it is possible that some adjustments will be made to it in the course of the following weeks and/or months.
