Spain is experiencing one of the most severe summers on record because of widespread forest fires. Many individuals have been forced to leave behind their houses, animals, and everything they own. Although the area will require significant time to heal, numerous residents remain uncertain about how to address their economic setbacks.

The fire has destroyed over

400,000 hectares of land

and fire crews from throughout the European Union were summoned to assist in putting out fires, as Spanish teams struggled to manage the increasing number of wildfires.

While insurance will be very important, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has declared all the

burned areas as catastrophic

This implies that the Government will take part in rebuilding and restoring all the towns affected by the flames and will provide assistance.

Numerous families have suffered losses of cash due to fires — paper currency they kept at home which couldn’t be rescued during their evacuation. The Banco de España has provided specific guidelines for retrieving damaged money.

Steps to retrieve your damaged banknotes and coins:

You should submit damaged notes (charred, dirty, ripped, worn, etc.) to a branch of the Banco de España or to your personal bank. They will then be examined and replaced with new bills of equal value, as long as the necessary conditions are fulfilled.

“If your residence was impacted by a fire, don’t lose hope regarding your funds. The Banco de España is examining damaged bills or coins, and should they verify their authenticity, you will receive your money back. We’ll outline the process for requesting a replacement,” stated the Banco de España on the social media platform, X.

    banknotes

    or coins damaged by the fire. You need to have over 50% of the original surface area of the bill to be able to identify it.
  • An alternative is to demonstrate that the absent section was obliterated (for example, through burning).
  • If the

    banknote

    It is severely damaged, with significant harm occurring, and it will be evaluated by trained personnel from Banco de España to examine it and decide if it qualifies for compensation.
  • It is also feasible to trade in defective coins (bent, rusted, charred); the procedure remains identical: they should be presented at Banco de España offices.
  • If the remaining burned currency (or anything still intact) hasn’t been deliberately harmed and isn’t associated with security mechanisms, it is highly probable that it can regain its worth.
