Overview

IVR routes to Spain

IVR routes to Spain carry automated calls that play a message and capture a key press or speech response. Automated calling is regulated more tightly than live calls almost everywhere, so we review the campaign type and consent basis for Spain before turning capacity on.

Automated commercial calls to Spanish consumers need prior consent. Collections reminders and service notifications are the common IVR uses. We confirm the consent basis before enabling capacity.

Spain is a major nearshore BPO hub and a large destination for Spanish-language customer care. Since 2023, unsolicited commercial calls require prior consent.

Caller ID rules in Spain

A practical summary for operations teams, not legal advice. Confirm current requirements with counsel before you launch.

Last reviewed

Caller-ID presentation

Since June 2023, the General Telecommunications Law requires prior consent for unsolicited commercial calls, and callers must present an identifiable number. Spain has introduced a dedicated 400 range for commercial calls, and operators block calls from abroad that falsely present Spanish numbers.

Consent for commercial calls

The General Telecommunications Law gives consumers the right not to receive unsolicited commercial calls without prior consent or another lawful basis.

Identifiable numbers

Commercial calls must present an identifiable number, and specific prefixes are being introduced for commercial calls.

Lista Robinson

The Robinson List lets consumers opt out of advertising. Scrub against it for any marketing calls.

Calling hours

Commercial calls should avoid late evenings and weekends; consumer-protection law sets weekday daytime as the expected window.

Dialing & setup

Dialing Spain correctly

  • Spain has no trunk 0. Send all nine digits after +34 unchanged.
  • The Canary Islands run on UTC+0, one hour behind the mainland.
  • Scrub consumer lists against the Lista Robinson as well as your own opt-outs.
  • Regional languages (Catalan, Basque, Galician) are appreciated but Spanish is universally accepted.

Caller ID best practice

Present an identifiable Spanish number that can be called back, and use dedicated commercial-call prefixes where the rules require them.

FAQ

Spain IVR routes: FAQ

Can’t find what you need? Our routing team answers within the hour, around the clock.

Can I run outbound sales into Spain?

Yes, with prior consent or another lawful basis, a scrub against the Robinson List and an identifiable CLI. Many customers run consented callbacks and existing-customer campaigns on our Spanish routes.

Do I need a Spanish CLI?

It is strongly recommended. Spanish numbers you hold give the best answer rates and meet the identifiable-number requirement. We can supply Spanish DIDs.

Do I need to use the 400 prefix?

Commercial calls are moving to the 400 range under the Spanish rules. Service calls can use ordinary numbers you hold. Confirm the current timetable with counsel before launching sales campaigns.

Is the Lista Robinson still relevant now that consent is required?

Yes. It remains the national opt-out list and should still be checked, especially for calls based on a customer relationship rather than explicit consent.

Do the Canary Islands have a different time zone?

Yes, they are one hour behind mainland Spain all year. Set the time zone by province in your dialer.

What consent do I need for IVR calls to Spain?

Automated marketing calls to Spain generally require prior consent, while service messages to existing customers are treated more leniently. Every message should identify the caller and offer an opt-out. We ask for your consent basis during campaign review.
