How to find the nearest tobacco shop
Finding a tobacco shop near you is easier than ever. At Buscatabaco we provide a directory with over 12,000 tobacco shops and 120,000 points of sale across Spain. Here are the different ways to find the nearest one.
1. Use our geolocation search
The quickest and most accurate way is to use our tobacco shop finder. When you access it, your browser will ask permission to use geolocation. If you accept, we will show you the nearest tobacco shops to your exact position, sorted by distance in kilometres.
2. Search by address or postcode
If you prefer not to enable geolocation, you can type an address, postcode or town name in our search engine. We will show you the most relevant results for that location.
3. Browse the directory
You can also explore our complete directory by geographic location:
- Select an autonomous community on the home page.
- Choose the province you are interested in.
- Select your town to see all tobacco shops and outlets available.
Each shop has its own listing with address, type (estanco or PVR) and map location.
4. Spot the shop on the street
Tobacco shops are easily identified by their official sign: a sign with the letter "T" for tobacco in red and gold colours. If you see this sign on a building facade, it is an authorised tobacco shop with regulated prices.
Estanco vs. Surcharge Point of Sale
Remember that our finder shows both estancos (regulated price) and Surcharge Points of Sale (with a small extra cost). Each result clearly indicates the type of establishment so you can choose. More information about the differences.
