What are the procedures for obtaining subvention for tourist related businesses (building a guest house) in the Province of Malaga, Spain.A contact name(s) of an english speaking agent who will provide guidance or oversee the application would also be useful.
Request for Question Clarification by joseleon-ga on 17 Sep 2002 06:03 PDT Hello, handyman: Do you mean subvention, loan or mortgage? There's no kind of subvention to build a guest house, if subvention means money facilities from the spanish government. Regards.
Clarification of Question by handyman-ga on 17 Sep 2002 06:44 PDT I have been reliably advised that subvention (grant of some kind) is available from the junta of andalucia for tourism related business and that the plans I have (for a small rural hotel)which are approved by the town hall in La Vinuela (a local authority in spain)would qualify. I'm having difficulty find out how to apply.
Request for Question Clarification by joseleon-ga on 17 Sep 2002 07:46 PDT Hello: Sorry, I understood that you wanted to build a guest house "in your own house" ;-) . In that case I think there is some subvention, I will do my research on this direction. Sorry again.
Request for Question Clarification by joseleon-ga on 17 Sep 2002 09:28 PDT Hello: I have found the subventions you are looking for, but I need more information. Could you tell me where are you from? I don't think a non-spanish could apply to get the subvention. Please, give me all the information you can to know if you can apply. Regards.
Clarification of Question by handyman-ga on 17 Sep 2002 09:50 PDT Hi, I'm from the UK and presently own land in the south of spain. I have a building permit for a small rural hotel on this land an have been advised by a number of spaniards that subvention should be available. I've also been told of an English couple that received a grant for apartments in the area, unfortunately I have not yet been able to trace their address. The region is La Axarquia and the Town Hall is La Vinuela. The mayor was one of the individuals that suggested I apply for a subvention however my spanish is not good enough for me to deal locally. I need a procedure and or an agent. I understand that the grants are made availble in tranches and the latest one for hotels is September 2002.
Request for Question Clarification by joseleon-ga on 17 Sep 2002 10:56 PDT Hello: All the research done, but I think you are running out of time to apply for the subvention, read below: Concesión de subvenciones en materia de TURISMO RURAL. http://www.ctd.junta-andalucia.es/turismo/Subv%20y%20Becas/Subvenciones/RESOL-TUR-RURAL-%2001.htm It was created on 19, December 2001 and there you can read: Spanish:"El plazo de presentación de solicitudes será de un mes desde la publicación de la presente Resolución" English:"You will have one month after the publishing of this text to apply for the subventions" And it was published on the BOJA (official place to do it) on 24, January 2002 Sumario BOJA nº 10 http://www.junta-andalucia.es/bojas/boja02.010/b02_010.htm So the deadline to apply for the subventions was 24, February 2002. Are you sure you can apply until September? I have found that now (in september) are publishing the grants. I found a company you could contact here to manage the subvention in the case you are interested to apply the next year, tell me what do you think and if you are interested in all the information I gathered. Regards.
Clarification of Question by handyman-ga on 27 Sep 2002 05:45 PDT Thanks. It would seem that a grant is available but what is the procedure to apply for it and where are the agents that could handle my application.
Request for Question Clarification by joseleon-ga on 02 Oct 2002 13:48 PDT Hello, handyman: I'm still working on the question, I have found all the process you must follow to apply for the subvention, but give me more time because it's really hard to translate those legal documents. Also I will post some information about agents who can apply the subvention for you. Regards.

Hello: I think this information finally answers your question, bear in mind you cannot apply for the subvention this year, but you can do it the next one: This is the page where you can get all the information about subventions on rural tourism: Concesión de subvenciones en materia de TURISMO RURAL. http://www.ctd.junta-andalucia.es/turismo/Subv%20y%20Becas/Subvenciones/RESOL-TUR-RURAL-%2001.htm And you can read at the bottom: "9. En lo relativo al procedimiento, documentación, y valoración de las solicitudes, se estará a lo dispuesto en la Orden de 22 de diciembre de 2.000 por la que se regula el procedimiento general para la concesión de subvenciones en materia de turismo rural, sin perjuicio de lo dispuesto en esta convocatoria." "9. The procedure, documentation and rating of applications, is established in the Resolution of 22nd December, 2000, which controls the common procedure to apply for subventions in rural tourism" That resolution is published here: BOJA nº6 2001 http://www.junta-andalucia.es/bojas/boja01.006/b01_006.htm And to get the complete text of the procedure, you will need a PDF reader, you can download the document here: 22nd December, 2000 Resolution http://boja.andaluciajunta.es/boja/cgi-bin/frame_pagina.cgi?2001-6-22 You can use the top navigator to scroll through the several pages, I extracted the more important information, I'm not able to translate verbatim the legal stuff, but I post in plain text what you need: -You must present two copies of all the documents on the "Registros de las Delegaciones Provinciales de la Consejería de Turismo y Deporte" Here you can find all the addresses of the "Delegaciones Provinciales de la Consejería de Turismo y Deporte" http://ifa.ingenia.es/programas/guia/Breveregional?17 And the Malaga's one: MALAGA.

Tlf: 952-34 73 00 Fax: 95-232 67 16 -You must declare that you have the non-subventioned money or you can get it from a bank or another institution to proof the project is finacially viable -You must declare that you are a PYME (little and medium sized company or equivalent (self-employed)) -Also you must declare that you don't have started the subventioned activity and you will start in the year you apply for the subvention. -You must present all your project plans, the money you need, for what you need it and time you need to finish it -You will need DNI or NIF (there is no specific instructions about foreign people, I think your passport will be fine) -In any case, you can be requested for as many documentation they want -If your application lacks of any requeriment you will be requested to provide more information and you will have 10 days for that, if not, your application will be desestimated I have found several agents for you to oversee the application, but I think this is the most trusted one, they are in the business many years and have their pages in English and German: Gestoria Bravo http://www.gestoriabravo.es/inicio/inicio_eng.htm They have two offices in Malaga FUENGIROLA Avda. de Condes de San Isidro 23, 1º 29640 Fuengirola (Malaga) Apdo. de Correos 190 Tel. 95 247 30 62 / 66 Fax. 95 246 20 06 CALAHONDA Avda.

Request for Answer Clarification by handyman-ga on 23 Oct 2002 10:08 PDT Thanks for chasing them. It wil be interesting to see the reply as it seems from their website that they deal with subventions and would already know what's involved. I'll let you know what happens.
Clarification of Answer by joseleon-ga on 23 Oct 2002 23:19 PDT Hello: Yes, they seem serious people, I hope they could help you ;-) Regards.
Request for Answer Clarification by handyman-ga on 06 Nov 2002 05:31 PST The company that you suggested has not replied to my email. It has been far too long now, they clearly do not want this work. So I do not have a complete answer to my original question.
Clarification of Answer by joseleon-ga on 06 Nov 2002 06:25 PST Hello: It's really strange, I don't know why, I'm going to phone them this afternoon and I will search for another agents for you if I think they don't want the job. Sorry for any inconvenience. Regards.
