For French residency permits, make sure to have your birth certificate translated by a sworn translator (traducteur assermenté). Book your appointment well in advance!

In Germany, the Anmeldung (registration) must be done within 2 weeks of finding permanent accommodation. Bring your rental contract and passport.

For Spain, get your NIE number first thing! Everything else depends on it. The appointment system (cita previa) can be frustrating, keep checking for cancellations.
