I think you should use your real country and address when opening an AdSense account. Using false information can create verification and payment problems later.

Why do you want the account registered in the UK? You probably cannot do this unless you buy a UK account but you will run into problems if it needs verification.
It's because of the amount of tax you have to pay in Spain if you are self-employed (website revenue for me), it's something like 300 euros a month before you earn anything. In the UK you can earn 10,000 pounds a year before paying any tax. These figures aren't exact but they give you the general idea. What I really want to know is how to spoof your location when registering a google account.
changing the AdSense country is not just a matter of changing country location there is verification of verification, payments, and taxation data by google. It would be much easier to have some understanding of the tax implication nd business structure beforehand.

As far as I know, the account should match your real country and payment details.

If you live in Spain, the simplest option is usually to create the AdSense account using your real Spanish details. Using another country's information can create verification and payment problems later.

I don't know if it will work in your case, but people who need payment processors, end up registering a company in the UK. Do some research and find out if you can do this for getting a UK based adsense.

From what I understand Adsense works best when your account matches your actual country and payment details Using the correct information from the start can help avoid verification issues later on
As far as I know your AdSense account should be registered in the country where you actually live and can verify your address if you are living in spain it is usually better to open a spain based AdSense account using a different country without a valid reason could cause verification or payment issues later

Is that possible? In my experience, most platforms require your registration country to match your residence or verification documents, so it may depend on their policies.

If you have a real UK address and the required tax and payment information, check Google's official requirements before setting it up.

You can open a business bank account in spain no?
tax system for business is the same. It costs more, and is more hassle, but you get more entity asset benefits. Check out your local government small business official corporate, not self employed. Thats were they do nail your nuts! lol
It depends on the service, but most platforms verify your business location during setup, If you have a legitimate UK presence, use that; otherwise, register with your actual location it your better.
