Lawyer in Ibiza

Castell.law advises residents, property owners and investors in Eivissa (Ibiza Town), the island’s capital, whose walled old town of Dalt Vila is part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Many of them come from abroad and want clear advice in their own language and a single lawyer coordinating the whole matter.

We are based in Palma and travel across Ibiza when a matter requires it; otherwise we meet by video call, phone or WhatsApp, whichever suits you best.

What we do for clients in Ibiza Town

  • Business and company law: setting up a company, shareholder agreements, commercial contracts and leases for businesses in Ibiza Town.
  • Real estate: buying, selling or renting homes and commercial premises, with full legal due diligence.
  • Criminal defence: discreet representation from the first police statement to trial.
  • Immigration: NIE, residence permits, visas and Spanish nationality.
  • Yacht and maritime law for owners with vessels in Ibiza Town.

Buying a home in Ibiza Town: the steps

A purchase in Ibiza Town usually starts with a private deposit contract (contrato de arras), followed by the public deed signed before a notary and its registration in the Land Registry. Before the deposit is paid, we obtain the Land Registry extract, confirm that the seller is the owner and that the property is free of debts and charges, and review its planning status.

We also calculate the taxes and costs of the purchase and, if you live outside Spain, arrange your NIE and a power of attorney so that you do not need to travel for the signing.

Moving to Ibiza Town

If you are moving to Ibiza Town, the first steps are usually obtaining your NIE, registering on the padrón at the town council and, depending on your nationality, registering as an EU citizen or applying for a visa or residence permit, such as the non-lucrative visa or the digital nomad visa.

We prepare the documents, book the appointments and accompany you through each procedure, so that you can settle in without delays.

Clients in Ibiza Town work with a single point of contact: a lead lawyer who coordinates our specialists and explains every document before you sign it, in English, Spanish or German.
