The Scout Movement in Spain consists of about 30 independent associations, most of them active on the regional level. Due to the regionalisation of Spain, even the larger nationwide associations are divided into regional sub-associations with individual emblems, uniforms and Scout programs.

Associations

Spanish Scout associations are divided in three organizational groups:

Associations affiliated to the World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM)
Associations affiliated to the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS)
Independent organizations, including a number of members of the smaller international umbrella organizations.

WOSM member organizations

The Federación de Escultismo en España is the National Scout Organization within WOSM. It serves 58,744 Scouts (as of 2004) and consists of three member organizations:

Federación de Scouts-Exploradores de España (full member; interreligious; ASDE)); its sub-associations include
- Scouts de Canarias
Movimiento Scout Católico (full member; Catholic; MSC)
Federació Catalana d'Escoltisme i Guiatge (observer; Federation of Catalan Scouts and Guides); its member organizations are
- Acció Escolta de Catalunya (interreligious; also affiliated to ASDE; WOSM-Member only)
- Escoltes Catalans (secular)
- Minyons Escoltes i Guies Sant Jordi de Catalunya (Catholic).

WAGGGS member organizations
