The Barcelona Reception Pocket Guidelines
This is a first-hand information guide describing the eight steps a person must complete upon arriving in the city of Barcelona:
Procedures Guide
Throughout 2009 we have updated and added several sections to the Procedures Guide. A new section on Services for People with Disabilities has been included, and a similar one in the area of education.
The Procedures Guide contains a summarized section lifting the 25 most common procedures which a newcomer must complete upon arrival in the city. The Guide is structured in a simple format and addresses the what?, who?, where? and how? of each of the procedures.
The Guide is intended for professionals and volunteers of the Reception area, and social entities such as government agencies offering information to the general public.
