New municipalities in Andalusia and Extremadura are added to the list of local entities entitled to urgent aid from the Royal Decree-Law 5/2026, of February 17. The Resolution of June 11, 2026 from the State Secretariat for Territorial Policy modifies the resolution of March 20, 2026 to expand Annex VI with additional municipalities and areas that had been left out in the first review.
The expansion is the result of a more thorough review of damages and evacuations carried out by the Evaluation Commissions of the Government Delegations in both autonomous communities. For municipal managers, the message is clear: if your municipality now appears in Annex VI, you have less than three weeks to act.
What does this regulation establish?
The resolution expands Annex VI of the resolution of March 20, 2026, incorporating new municipalities and areas in Andalusia and Extremadura affected by adverse meteorological phenomena. These new municipalities access the package of measures from the Royal Decree-Law 5/2026, which includes the following articles:
| Articles of RDL 5/2026 | Type of measure |
|---|---|
| Art. 5 | Emergency and immediate response measures |
| Art. 7 | Determination of affected municipalities |
| Art. 22 | Support measures for local entities |
| Arts. 31, 32 and 33 | Subsidies for infrastructure repair |
| Art. 35 | Compensation of 100% of the cost of damages |
| Arts. 37, 38, 39 and 40 | Additional recovery measures |
| Art. 43 | Local financing for municipalities with accredited damages |
| Art. 45 | Complementary provisions |
An important nuance: municipalities in Annex VI that are not included in Annex V can also access local financing measures, but must accredit damages to the Ministry of Finance. This accreditation is an additional step that is not required of municipalities in Annex V.
Economic and operational impact
The economic impact for affected municipalities is direct and significant. The most relevant measure is the compensation of 100% of the cost of damages included in article 35 of RDL 5/2026. This means that municipalities do not have to assume any part of the cost of repairing damages caused by meteorological phenomena.
Additionally, articles 31, 32 and 33 enable specific subsidies for repair works and infrastructure. These subsidies can cover everything from the repair of public roads and water supply networks to larger infrastructure damaged by the disasters.
The real economic risk is not in the regulation itself, but in failure to meet the deadline: a municipality that does not submit its application before 15:00h on July 2, 2026 loses access to all these measures, with no possibility of recovering them later.
Who does it affect?
- Municipalities in Andalusia and Extremadura included in the new Annex VI of the resolution of June 11, 2026.
- Provincial councils of both autonomous communities with affected municipalities in their territory.
- Municipalities in Annex VI not included in Annex V, which must also accredit damages to the Ministry of Finance to access local financing measures.
- Local entities with competencies in infrastructure and repair works in affected areas.
- Contractor companies and service providers to affected municipalities, which will see activated demand for repair works.
Practical example
A municipality in Extremadura that suffered damages to its water supply network and several public roads during the meteorological phenomena of early 2026, but had not been included in the resolution of March 20, now appears in the new Annex VI following the review by the Evaluation Commission of the Government Delegation.
By being in Annex VI, this municipality can request subsidies for repair works under articles 31, 32 and 33 of RDL 5/2026, and is entitled to compensation of 100% of the cost of damages according to article 35. If it was also not in Annex V, it must accredit damages to the Ministry of Finance to also access the local financing measures of article 43.
The critical step: submit the subsidy application before 15:00h on July 2, 2026. A delay of hours can result in the total loss of funds.
What should municipalities do now?
- Verify if the municipality appears in the new Annex VI of the Resolution of June 11, 2026, published in the BOE of June 13, 2026.
- Check if the municipality is also in Annex V. If not, start the process of accrediting damages to the Ministry of Finance to access the local financing measures of article 43.
- Prepare damage documentation: inventory of affected infrastructure, valuation of repair costs and any technical documentation required for the subsidy application.
- Submit the subsidy application before 15:00h on July 2, 2026. This deadline is non-extendable. Do not wait until the last day.
- Coordinate with the corresponding Government Delegation (Andalusia or Extremadura) to resolve doubts about the application procedure and applicable articles of RDL 5/2026.
Frequently asked questions
What is the deadline for requesting subsidies for meteorological damages in Andalusia and Extremadura?
The deadline for municipalities and provincial councils to submit their application for subsidies for repair works and infrastructure expires on July 2, 2026 at 15:00h. This deadline is non-extendable and applies to all municipalities included in Annex VI of the Resolution of June 11, 2026.
What percentage of damages does the compensation from RDL 5/2026 cover?
Article 35 of Royal Decree-Law 5/2026 establishes compensation of 100% of the cost of damages for municipalities included in Annex VI. This means that affected municipalities do not have to assume any part of the repair cost.
What is the difference between being in Annex V and Annex VI?
Municipalities in Annex VI access the measures of articles 5, 7, 22, 31-33, 35, 37-40, 43 and 45 of RDL 5/2026. However, municipalities in Annex VI that are not included in Annex V must accredit their damages to the Ministry of Finance to also access the local financing measures of article 43.
Why is the list of municipalities being expanded now if a resolution was already published in March 2026?
The expansion responds to a more thorough review of damages and evacuations carried out by the Evaluation Commissions of the Government Delegations in Andalusia and Extremadura. Some municipalities had not been included in the initial resolution of March 20, 2026 and are now incorporated following this second review.
When does the Resolution of June 11, 2026 become effective?
The resolution is executive from its publication in the BOE, that is, from June 13, 2026. Municipalities included in the new Annex VI can begin their application procedures from that same date.
