It is apparently the law, but not currently applied, that non resident non EU owners have to provide proof that they own the property they stay in before being allowed entry to Spain. The recommended document is a Nota Simple, which you get from the Spanish Land Registry for 9.02 euros. The address is www.registradores.org, and there is an English version
I tried four times unsuccessfully to get one using an address, which has to be exactly right and looks nothing like my current address (but you don't get charged if you fail).
I finally got it by using the property reference in my original escritura. It looks like this -
Tomo 123 libro 12 La Oliva (or whatever) folio 123 finca 1234.
You apply using 'other data' and put it in the notes box.
Seems worth the small investment to have it tucked in my passport just in case
