Colegio Notarial de Valencia

What Colegio Notarial de Valencia does

The Ilustre Colegio Notarial de Valencia is a professional association (Colegio Profesional) under Spanish law that regulates, represents, and provides administrative services to notaries across the Valencia, Alicante, and Castellón provinces, operating under the umbrella of the Consejo General del Notariado. It is headquartered at C/ Pascual y Genís, 21 in València, with regional delegations in Alicante and Castellón de la Plana, plus a protocol archives facility in Alcàsser, and an 11-person administrative staff.

Its core service portfolio spans public-facing notarial administration (legalizations and apostilles, protocol archive copies, certified translations, marriage-license processing, advance appointment booking, estate-partition listings under Contadores-Partidores Dativos, on-duty notary routing, and the SAU user-service desk), together with member-facing functions including a professional directory, district delegates, and regulatory oversight. The college also operates several internal institutes and foundations: IVEN for legislative and doctrinal updates, INV@ for IT adoption among member notaries, INDISVA for digital preservation, Solutio Litis for alternative dispute resolution, and the Academia Eduardo Llagaria opposition-preparation academy led by Rafael Sebastián Ferrer Molina. Strategic partnerships with Centro Tecnológico del Notariado, Fundación Aequitas, the Universidad de Alicante notarial law chair, and the Asociación Profesional de Notarios extend its technology, social-impact, academic, and professional-representation functions.

The revenue model rests on three streams: recurring colegiate membership fees from notaries who must register to practice in the region, an annual €100 + VAT listing fee from lawyers who apply to be designated Contadores-Partidores Dativos (with a five-fold re-registration penalty after voluntary withdrawal), and transaction-based fees for legalizations, apostilles, protocol copies, translations, and matrimonial proceedings. Following elections on November 17, 2024, a new Junta Directiva led by Decano José Carmelo Llopis Benlloch (Notario de Viver) and Vicedecano Gaspar Peral Bernat (Notario de Alicante) took office on November 28, 2024 for a four-year term.

Direct peers

• Ilustre Colegio Notarial de Cataluña: The Catalan notarial college mirrors the Valencia colegio's mandate of regulating notaries, providing public-facing notarial administrative services, and operating an opposition-preparation academy, with parallel institutional structure under the Consejo General del Notariado.

Others

• Centro Tecnológico del Notariado (Ancert): The technology arm of the Spanish notariat, partnered with Colegio Notarial de Valencia, provides shared digital infrastructure (electronic signature, platform, document management) for notarial services; a key technology vendor and integration partner rather than a competitor.

Broad incumbents
