How to Check a Spanish Lottery Ticket

Spain uses two different types of lottery tickets. Number-selection games such as La Primitiva and BonoLoto are checked against a winning combination. Traditional Lotería Nacional tickets use a printed five-digit number and a much more detailed prize list.

1. Confirm the game and draw date. Some tickets include several consecutive draws. Check the date of the particular entry you’re checking.
2. Compare the right set of numbers. La Primitiva and BonoLoto have six main numbers plus complementario and reintegro. EuroMillions uses five main numbers and two Lucky Stars; in Spain you should also check El Millón.
3. Check the complete prize structure. A Christmas Lottery décimo may win through an exact match, an approximation, number endings or a reintegro. Looking only at El Gordo’s first prize is not enough.
4. Use the official ticket checker. Confirm a potential win using SELAE’s ticket-checking tool or JuegosONCE, according to the operator.
5. Protect the ticket. Never publish a readable barcode, ticket image or identifying details of a potentially winning ticket.

You Have Winning Numbers: How to Claim in Spain

If you have a physical ticket bought through SELAE, small prizes are normally handled at authorised lottery retailers. Prizes of €2,000 or more require the designated bank/payment procedure and identification. For purchases made through the official SELAE website, payment and verification take place through your account. ONCE uses its own claim process.

For many SELAE games, prizes expire three months after the final draw covered by the ticket. Physical ONCE Eurojackpot tickets generally expire after 30 calendar days, counted from the day following the draw. Different online purchase rules may apply.

Qualifying Spanish state lottery prizes generally have a €40,000 tax-free threshold and a 20% withholding on the amount above it. El Millón has a different €24,000 exemption. The tax treatment of a non-resident can also depend on their home jurisdiction. For details, read our Spanish lottery tax guide.

Always confirm the deadline and payment requirements for your particular game with SELAE or ONCE.

Previous Spanish Lottery Results and Draw Archives

If you are checking an older ticket, the latest result alone is not enough. Always look up the correct draw date and use the official historical prize list. Start with the SELAE official results archive or ONCE Eurojackpot results.
