How to send a fax to Spain

Why fax to Spain?

Faks pozostaje powszechnym kanałem komunikacji w Hiszpanii z urzędami rządowymi, bankami, kancelariami prawnymi i placówkami ochrony zdrowia. Wiele hiszpańskich instytucji publicznych — w tym urząd skarbowy (Agencia Tributaria), oddziały ubezpieczeń społecznych i sądy — akceptuje faks jako ważną formę składania dokumentów. Banki i firmy ubezpieczeniowe w Hiszpanii również regularnie korzystają z faksu do przetwarzania formularzy, wniosków odszkodowawczych i podpisanych upoważnień.

Jeśli hiszpańska organizacja podaje numer faksu obok numeru telefonu i adresu e-mail, zazwyczaj oznacza to, że aktywnie go monitoruje i oczekuje, że dokumenty będą przesyłane właśnie w ten sposób.
