Do foreign documents submitted to a Spanish notary for a corporate matter need legalisation?

Yes. Spanish notaries (Notarios) generally do not treat foreign corporate documents as Spanish 'public documents', so they require a Hague apostille (legalisation) before the documents can be used in a Spanish corporate procedure — this applies even to documents issued in another EU/EEA country.
