Honest things to know
No working in Spain
This visa does not allow any work, including remote work for a foreign employer. If you’ll keep working online, the Digital Nomad Visa is your route.
You’ll live there
To renew, you spend more than 183 days a year in Spain, which makes you a Spanish tax resident.
Income or savings, not investment
There’s no property purchase; you simply show you can support yourself.
Covered by our money-back assurance. If your Non-Lucrative Visa is refused, we refund the fees you paid us — apart from Spain’s initial registration fee.
