Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Peter is correct below.  I think you are heading in the wrong direction.  After your explanation here, I understand a little more about where you are going.  Here is what I would say to your question: 1. All "old urls" (and all versions of) will need to have a 301 redirect to the new SEo friendly url.  The currency is a different issue.  You cant redirect that because you would never be able to show multiple currencies to the right users.  In the curreny example, you could use a canonical tag to the most popular or default currency. 2. Directories and IA (information architecture) of your site have nothing to do with redirects or canonical tags.  As Peter pointed out below, /spain/malaga is a totally different page than /spain.  You dont do anything special with tags here, you just create unique content for each of those pages.  You pass proper link juice upwards by internally linking your /spain/malaga page up to your /spain page, and every other page that exists below a main level directory page.  Essentially, you want all deeper pages linking up to your main directory page. 3.  In the small cases that you will be using the canonical tag, you put those tags on all the pages except the original page. Hope that clears things up.  I was/am still a bit confused as to your structure, but think this should get you in the right direction.
