Pakistanis Queue At The Pakistani Consulate General In Barcelona To Legalize Their Status In Spain.

Hundreds of Pakistanis queue at the Pakistani Consulate General in Barcelona, Spain, on January 30, 2026, to obtain the criminal record certificate that allows them to legalize their status in Spain and obtain a work and residence permit. This is due to the immigrant regularization process recently approved by the Spanish Government, a direct political agreement between the PSOE and Podemos parties. (Photo by Marc Asensio/NurPhoto)
