El NIE es necesario para cualquier extranjero que realice actividades económicas, profesionales o sociales en España. Esto incluye tanto ciudadanos de la Unión Europea como de terceros países.
Formas de obtener el NIE

En este caso, los documentos requeridos son similares, aunque pueden variar ligeramente dependiendo del consulado.
C) A través de un Representante Legal
La normativa permite que un representante legal gestione la solicitud del NIE en nombre del interesado. Esta opción es frecuente para inversores extranjeros o personas que no pueden estar físicamente en España.
Para ello, se necesita:
Plazos y Resolución
Una vez presentada la solicitud, la resolución suele emitirse en un plazo de 10 a 15 días hábiles. Sin embargo, este periodo puede variar según la carga de trabajo de las oficinas de extranjería.
