HOW TO FORM AN OFFICIAL MADRIDISTA FAN CLUB
If you wish to establish an Official Madridista Fan Club, you must contact the Real Madrid Fan Clubs Department via email.
In this initial communication, you must indicate the locality, province, region, and country where the Fan club is intended to be established, so the Fan Clubs Department can assess the feasibility and verify that the established territorial requirements are met.
Requirements for the creation of an Official Madridista Fan Club
1. Name and identifiers
The new Fan club must have:
- Identifying name.
- Logo or emblem.
Both the name and the design must be reviewed and approved in advance by the Real Madrid Fan Clubs Department.
2. Minimum number of members

Additionally, the following specific requirements must be met depending on the location:

- Abroad:
- Fan clubs located outside Spain must be constituted under the legal form equivalent to a "Non-profit Association" according to their local regulations. If the legislation in their country does not contemplate this figure or presents particularities, the Fan Clubs Department will analyze the situation and indicate, in each case, the steps to follow and the alternative documents necessary to formally register and recognize the Fan club as official.
Once the Fan club is registered and recognized by Real Madrid, all its members must formalize their registration with the Official Fan Club Card issued by the Club.
