Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Non-Lucrative Visa for Spain and who can apply?
The Non-Lucrative Visa is a residence permit that allows non-EU citizens to live in Spain without working or carrying out any professional activity. Applicants must demonstrate sufficient financial resources and have valid health insurance. Processing requirements and timelines vary by consulate, so check your local Spanish embassy or consulate for details.
What is the Digital Nomad Visa for Spain?
The Digital Nomad Visa enables non-EU remote workers—such as freelancers, entrepreneurs, or employees—to live in Spain while working for companies or clients based outside of Spain. Eligibility requirements (like minimum income, contract history, and restrictions on Spanish-sourced income) differ by nationality and application method (consular vs. in-country), so it’s essential to review the specific rules that apply to you.
Do I need a visa to live in Spain as an au pair, student, or worker?
Yes. Non-EU citizens generally need the appropriate visa or residence permit to live in Spain for specific purposes: Au Pair, Student, Work, or other authorised activities. Each visa category has its own eligibility criteria and documentation requirements, which vary depending on your nationality and the Spanish consulate handling your case.
How long does it take to get a Spanish visa approved?
Processing times depend on the visa type, documentation completeness, and the specific consulate. Some short-term or straightforward visa applications may be processed in a few weeks, while more complex residence visas—like the Non-Lucrative or Digital Nomad Visa—can take several weeks to a few months. It's best to apply early and check current processing times at your local consulate.
