Spain's residence authorization for international remote workers is intended for non-EU nationals who work remotely for companies located outside Spain using computer and telecommunications technology.
Before you apply, we review whether your employment or professional relationship, documentation, Social Security position, health insurance, and relocation plan fit this route.
Initial Review
Before applying for Spain's digital nomad visa, it is important to review your relationship with the company or clients, how long that relationship has existed, the company's actual activity, permission to work from Spain, your qualifications or professional experience, financial resources, and Social Security obligations.
A well-prepared application should also fit your family situation, tax planning, and actual timeline for moving to Spain. When tax advice is needed, we introduce and coordinate the appropriate qualified professional.
Profiles That May Qualify
The documentation and strategy depend on how you earn your income and maintain your relationship with the company or clients.
For someone employed by a foreign company that expressly authorizes remote work from Spain.

Documentation and Requirements

How long the employment or professional relationship has existed and whether the activity will continue from Spain.

Employer authorization or professional documentation showing that the activity can be carried out remotely from Spain.
Relevant qualifications or professional experience showing that you have the background required for the activity.
Financial resources, health insurance or applicable coverage, and family documentation when relevant.
Contribution obligations, possible international coverage, and the documentation that should be prepared before the activity begins.
Coordinating the Case

We review your activity, income, company, clients, family, and expected arrival date.
We organize certificates, contracts, letters, insurance, financial resources, and personal documentation.
When needed, we coordinate the legal, tax, or Social Security review with the appropriate qualified professionals.
