I am an Indonesian student in Spain. I had a student residence card (TIE). But someone stole my wallet, which had my residence card. I'm supposed to go to Germany and stay for 1 and a half months. I paid for the ticket to Germany with Vueling Airlines. I only have my passport and my 3-month expired visa.

So is it possible for me to travel to Germany? What kind of document can I use to prove my TIE was stolen and I am a legal resident?

Thank you.

    If you have not reported the theft yet, do it. Apply for a new TIE. What did they tell you how long it takes?

  • I know this isn't an answer but I'm in the same situation right now. I'm kinda desperate so I just wanted to ask, what did you need to present to get a regreso? And did you go through immigration or not? Would really appreciate the help

I was able to go to Germany without a problem. I had to apply for an Autorización de Regreso. It's a document that proves you have a TIE, but you lost it, or it is expired, and that you are renewing it. If Immigration asks you about your TIE, you can show them your Autorización de Regreso.

    Are you sure about that name? Regreso with one s is Spanish, but Ignacio is a personal name, and apart from a couple of plants named after San Ignacio that's all it is. I can't figure out what it might be a typo for.
