DENUNCIAS
=========

A denuncia is a police report, and if you are the unfortunate
victim of a burglary, mugging or criminal incident, you will need
to attend your local Guardia Civil to make such a report. I have
set out below an example of the usual format of a denuncia with
English explanations: (available for download as denuncia.jpg -

find it so much easier to complete a draft of this form prior to
attending the station. All details should be in Spanish,
including any items that have been stolen. In addition, you may
find it useful to include a Euro price for approximate value
against each item, as this will be required by the insurance
company if you are making a claim. If you subsequently realise
further items have been stolen which are not listed on the police
report, it is likely your insurance company will not include them
in your claim. If you wish, you can return to the station and ask
them to prepare a supplementary denuncia adding these items to
the report.

Do remember that Guardia Civil Stations close over lunch, usually
between 14.00 and 17.00 hrs and are also closed Saturday
afternoons and Sundays.  In the event that the station is closed,
and reporting of the incident cannot wait until it re-opens, you
should contact the National Police who will usually deal with the
matter and pass details on to the Guardia Civil.
