Medical Certificate in Málaga: Online, from €34.99

Málaga anchors the Costa del Sol and carries one of Spain's largest tourism economies, with hospitality and seasonal employment a major part of the local job market alongside a fast-growing technology sector often referred to as "Málaga Valley". That combination means documentation practices vary a great deal: seasonal hospitality roles often sit on the statutory minimum, while the tech and services firms moving into the city tend to run more formal HR processes.

Fit-to-fly requests are unusually common here given Málaga's role as a major holiday gateway, alongside the more typical requests for work and university documentation. As with everywhere else in Spain, the underlying rules are national and identical regardless of the city — what changes locally is how easily people can get a same-day appointment during peak tourist season.

Málaga has no clinic of ours to walk into: your case is reviewed entirely online by a doctor registered to assess cases in Spain, wherever in the country you happen to be. That is the whole point — you don't need to be well enough to cross Málaga to a waiting room, or to catch an appointment slot, to have a doctor look at your case.

1. 1

   Complete assessment

   3-5 minutes. Select your certificate type, confirm Spain as your country, and answer relevant health questions in detail so the reviewing doctor has what they need to make a genuine clinical judgment. No payment is taken at this stage.

2. 2

   A doctor registered to assess Spain cases reviews

   Your answers are reviewed against Spanish requirements during business hours, Monday-Friday. The doctor may come back to you for more information before deciding, and will only proceed with a certificate if it is clinically appropriate to do so.

3. 3

   Receive your PDF

   Once approved, your certificate is emailed the same day for most requests, showing the reviewing doctor's credentials and a verification reference that lets the recipient confirm the document is genuine.

€40-70 is a typical range reported for a private, in-person doctor consultation in Spain and varies by clinic, location, and consultation type. It doesn't include the time cost of travelling to and from an appointment, or the wait for a slot to become available, both of which our online review is designed to remove without cutting corners on the actual clinical assessment.

Important: what we can and cannot issue in Spain: We cannot issue the formal parte de baja for absences of more than 3 days, because Spanish law reserves that document to doctors within the public Seguridad Social system or an authorised equivalent. What we do provide is a general medical certificate (a separate, valid document used for insurance, visa, legal, education, and similar purposes) and a sick leave certificate suited to shorter absences that can generally be self-managed. If your situation requires the formal parte de baja for statutory sick pay beyond 3 days, that has to come from the public system.

Every Spain certificate is reviewed by a doctor registered to assess cases in Spain. A clinician will only issue a certificate after genuinely assessing your case and if it is clinically appropriate to do so. If it isn't, you receive a full refund rather than a certificate you can't rely on. We do not name individual clinicians on this page because the specific doctor assigned to review your case depends on availability and certificate type at the time you submit your assessment; your certificate itself shows the reviewing doctor's name and credentials once issued, so the recipient can see exactly who assessed your case. No certificate is generated automatically or without a doctor's genuine review, whatever the certificate type.
