SEPE offices in Valencia

29 officesComunitat Valenciana

If you live in Valencia province and need to deal with unemployment benefits, you will visit a SEPE office. SEPE is Spain's public employment service. The province of Valencia has 29 SEPE benefit offices. Nine of these are located in Valencia city itself. The remaining offices are spread across other municipalities like Alaquàs, Alzira, Ayora, Burjassot, Carcaixent, Carlet, and Catarroja, each with one office.

You go to a SEPE office to manage your unemployment benefits, also known as 'prestaciones'. This includes applying for benefits, submitting documents, or resolving issues with your payments. For anything related to job seeking registration, called 'demanda de empleo', you need to contact LABORA. LABORA is the autonomous employment service for the Comunitat Valenciana. Make sure you know which service you need before booking an appointment.

You always need a prior appointment, or 'cita previa', to visit a SEPE office. Without one, they will not see you. To book your 'cita previa', you can use the SEPE electronic headquarters online. Alternatively, call the national appointment line at 91 926 79 70. This service is free.

Appointments can be hard to get, especially in Valencia city. If you cannot find an appointment in your closest office, try looking for availability in other nearby municipalities. Sometimes, a short trip to a neighboring town can save you a long wait. Keep checking the electronic headquarters regularly, as new slots often open up.

Keep in mind

In Comunitat Valenciana, registering as a jobseeker (demanda de empleo) happens at LABORA. The SEPE offices on this page handle unemployment benefits and subsidies.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I renew my job seeker registration ('demanda de empleo') in Valencia province?

You renew your job seeker registration, known as 'sellar el paro' or 'renovar la demanda de empleo', with LABORA. LABORA is the regional employment service for the Comunitat Valenciana, not SEPE. You can typically do this online through the LABORA website. Check your specific LABORA office or their website for details on renewal procedures.

What should I do if I cannot find a 'cita previa' in my local SEPE office in Valencia?

Appointment availability can vary. If you cannot find a 'cita previa' in your specific municipality, try searching for appointments in nearby towns within Valencia province. For example, if you are in Valencia city, look for slots in Alaquàs, Burjassot, or Catarroja. You can book an appointment at any SEPE office, not just the one closest to your home. Keep checking the SEPE electronic headquarters, as new slots become available frequently.

Can I visit a SEPE office in Valencia without a prior appointment?

No, you cannot. You must always have a 'cita previa', or prior appointment, to be seen at any SEPE office. Staff will not attend to you without one. Book your appointment online through the SEPE electronic headquarters or by calling 91 926 79 70.
