Complete replacement. The old tarjeta de residencia system was abandoned over a year ago at EU insistence. Spain, however, required a register of foreigners living in the country, and the Certificado de Registro is residents' certificate proving that they've registered as required. It is required of all residents of more than three months' standing, and has no tax implications whatsoever, unlike the old residencia system.
