> US immigration and customs forms do not have sufficient space or characters for many common Hispanic names. Also the other way around. I can't officially order from IKEA here in Spain because their online order entry demands a second surname (segundo apellido) which I don't have :D This is a typical Spanish thing. I do however have a middle name which tends to trip them up a lot (my middle name is more recognisable as a first name so it often confuses them) I just put '-' or 'NA' or something but technically the delivery guys could make issues about it considering that is not on my passport. However the rules are not taken very strictly in Spain which is one of the nice things about living here.
