The certificate of victims of Francoism is an official document signed by the highest authorities of the Government of the Balearic Islands – the president, Francina Armengol, and the vice-president, Juan Pedro Yllanes – which the Directorate General of Democratic Memory gives to the families of all the victims of Francoist repression who request it, with the aim of recognising the victims of Francoism as victims of human rights violations, and to highlight the serious injustices suffered by their relatives.

The first of these certificates was released in January 2021 to the family of the trade union and political activist Juana Baño, whose remains were identified in 2018 in the exhumation of the grave in Calvià (Mallorca). Since then, the Balearic executive has delivered a total of 215 certificates of victims of Francoism.

Those interested in requesting this recognition can do so through the Directorate General of Democratic Memory, on the website that the Government has set up specifically for this purpose:
