If the person was a foreign national: contact their consulate
Why it matters
Repatriation, foreign-asset estates, and home-country notifications often run through the consulate, and cross-border inheritance can involve another country's law.
How to do it
- Contact the deceased's embassy/consulate in Spain.
- Ask about death registration in their home country and any repatriation needs.
- Cross-border estates (assets in two countries) usually need specialist advice.
