Introduced in December 2022 under the Startup Law, it provides a legal residence route for foreign employees and self-employed professionals whose work can be performed online.<\/p>\n<p>Applicants must demonstrate sufficient income, an established working relationship and the professional qualifications required under Spanish immigration law. They must also satisfy the applicable Social Security and healthcare requirements.<\/p>\n<p>There are two application routes. Applicants living abroad can apply through a Spanish consulate for a visa valid for up to one year. Those already legally present in Spain can request a residence permit lasting up to three years.<\/p>\n<p>Some visa holders may also qualify for the Beckham Law, a special Spanish tax regime that applies a 24% rate to certain taxable income up to \u20ac600,000. However, immigration approval does not automatically establish eligibility for those tax benefits.<\/p>\n<p>This guide covers the Spain digital nomad visa requirements for 2026, including income thresholds, documents, processing times, private health insurance, Social Security, family applications and how to apply for the Beckham Law.<\/p>\n<h3>Spain Digital Nomad Visa Requirements in 2026<\/h3>\n<p>Spain&#8217;s remote work visa is formally known as the <em>visado para teletrabajo de car\u00e1cter internacional<\/em>, or international telework visa.<\/p>\n<p>It was introduced through Law 28\/2022, which amended Spain&#8217;s Law 14\/2013 governing international mobility.<\/p>\n<h4>Spain Digital Nomad Visa at a Glance<\/h4>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Requirement<\/th>\n<th>2026 rules<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Eligible nationality<\/td>\n<td>Qualifying non-EU citizens<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Minimum income<\/td>\n<td>200% of the Spanish minimum wage<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Minimum annual income benchmark<\/td>\n<td>\u20ac34,188 for the main applicant<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Monthly equivalent over 12 payments<\/td>\n<td>\u20ac2,849<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Employment relationship<\/td>\n<td>You must have been working for your employer for at least three months<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Company history<\/td>\n<td>Your employer must have been in existence for at least one year<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Qualifications<\/td>\n<td>A relevant degree OR three years of professional experience<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Spanish client work<\/td>\n<td>Up to 20% of professional activity for qualifying freelancers<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Initial residence permit<\/td>\n<td>Up to three years<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Permit renewals<\/td>\n<td>Two-year periods<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Family applications<\/td>\n<td>Available for qualifying dependents<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tax benefits<\/td>\n<td>Beckham Law may apply if separate conditions are satisfied<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The main requirements apply to both consular visa applications and residence authorization applications submitted from Spain.<\/p>\n<h3>Who Is Eligible for the Spanish Digital Nomad Visa?<\/h3>\n<p>The Spanish digital nomad visa is intended for third-country nationals working remotely for businesses outside Spain.<\/p>\n<p>Applicants must generally:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Be at least 18 years old.<\/li>\n<li>Hold a valid passport.<\/li>\n<li>Demonstrate qualifying employment or self-employed activity.<\/li>\n<li>Meet the minimum income requirement.<\/li>\n<li>Prove that their employer(s) have operated for at least one year.<\/li>\n<li>Have worked with the employer or qualifying clients for at least three months.<\/li>\n<li>Hold a relevant recognized degree or demonstrate at least three years of professional experience relevant to their current position<\/li>\n<li>Provide a criminal record certificate<\/li>\n<li>Show acceptable public or private healthcare coverage.<\/li>\n<li>Comply with Spanish Social Security requirements.<\/li>\n<li>Pay the applicable application fee.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Citizens of the European Union and people entitled to reside under the relevant European Union or European Economic Area free-movement rules generally do not need this visa.<\/p>\n<p>For U.S. citizens, the principal question is usually whether their existing employment or freelance arrangements meet the program&#8217;s conditions.<\/p>\n<h4>Who Can Work Remotely From Spain?<\/h4>\n<p>The digital nomad visa covers two categories of workers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Employees<\/strong> must work for a foreign employer (located outside of Spain) and have permission to perform their duties remotely from Spain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Self-employed professionals<\/strong> must provide services to non-Spanish companies or clients. They may also undertake a limited amount of professional work (up to 20% of their work) for Spanish companies.<\/p>\n<p>For example, an employee working for an American software company can qualify for the visa, provided they agree to that employee working remotely. A freelance designer with established non-Spanish clients can also qualify.<\/p>\n<p>Someone employed exclusively by a Spanish company would generally need a different immigration route.<\/p>\n<h4>The Three-Month Employment Requirement<\/h4>\n<p>Applicants must demonstrate an established professional relationship lasting at least three months before submitting the visa application.<\/p>\n<p>Employees normally provide an employment contract confirming their length of service, role and authorization to work remotely.<\/p>\n<p>Freelancers provide contracts and supporting records demonstrating the duration and nature of their client relationships.<\/p>\n<h4>The One-Year Company Requirement<\/h4>\n<p>The employer or qualifying client company must have been genuinely operating for at least one year.<\/p>\n<p>This is separate from the applicant&#8217;s own three-month relationship with that business.<\/p>\n<p>A company located outside Spain may need to provide official incorporation or commercial registry documentation showing when it was established.<\/p>\n<p>Foreign corporate documents typically require apostilles and official Spanish translations.<\/p>\n<p>A business created only a few months before the application would not satisfy the ordinary one-year activity requirement.<\/p>\n<h4>Do You Need a University Degree?<\/h4>\n<p>Not necessarily.<\/p>\n<p>The law permits applicants to qualify through relevant recognized education or professional experience.<\/p>\n<p>Eligible qualifications can include a university degree, postgraduate degree, recognized vocational education or a qualification from an appropriate business school.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, applicants may demonstrate at least three years of relevant professional experience.<\/p>\n<p>Someone applying through work experience should provide suitable evidence of previous roles, responsibilities and employment duration, typically in the form of prior work contracts.<\/p>\n<h3>Spain Digital Nomad Visa Income Requirements for 2026<\/h3>\n<p>The income threshold is linked to the Spanish minimum wage, known as the <em>Salario M\u00ednimo Interprofesional<\/em> or SMI.<\/p>\n<p>Spain&#8217;s minimum wage for 2026 is \u20ac1,221 per month, normally calculated over 14 payments, equivalent to \u20ac17,094 per year.<\/p>\n<p>Digital nomad applicants must demonstrate financial resources equivalent to at least 200% of the applicable minimum wage.<\/p>\n<h4>Minimum Monthly Income for a Single Applicant<\/h4>\n<p>The annual income requirement for the digital nomad visa is \u20ac34,188 in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The monthly figure depends on how many monthly payments you receive. Outside of Spain, it is common for applicants to receive 12 months of salary payments, in which case the requirement is at least \u20ac2,849 per month. If you receive a guaranteed 13th or 14th month, you may calculate accordingly.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Calculation<\/th>\n<th>Amount<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Spanish minimum wage in 2026<\/td>\n<td>\u20ac1,221 \u00d7 14 payments<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Annual minimum wage<\/td>\n<td>\u20ac17,094<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Digital nomad requirement at 200%<\/td>\n<td>\u20ac34,188 annually<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Equivalent over 12 payments<\/td>\n<td>\u20ac2,849 per month<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h4>Income Requirements for Family Members<\/h4>\n<p>In order to include family members, you will need to show additional income to meet Spain\u2019s digital nomad visa requirements.<\/p>\n<p>The calculation is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Main applicant: 200% of the SMI.<\/li>\n<li>First accompanying family member: an additional 75% of the SMI.<\/li>\n<li>Each additional family member: an additional 25% of the SMI.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For 2026, and assuming 12 months of pay, this means:<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Family size<\/th>\n<th>Monthly income requirement<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Individual<\/td>\n<td>\u20ac2,849<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Couple<\/td>\n<td>\u20ac3,917.38<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Couple with one child<\/td>\n<td>\u20ac4,273.50<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Couple with two children<\/td>\n<td>\u20ac4,629.63<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>These figures use the annualized 12-payment method. The monthly amounts published by individual consulates may be displayed using a 14-payment conversion.<\/p>\n<h4>How Do You Prove Sufficient Income?<\/h4>\n<p>Employees commonly provide their employment contract, employer certificate, payslips and bank statements.<\/p>\n<p>Freelancers typically must show client agreements, invoices, bank statements and professional or tax records.<\/p>\n<p>The documents must establish the amount, source and continuity of the income.<\/p>\n<h3>Can Self-Employed Workers Apply for Spain&#8217;s Digital Nomad Visa?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, self-employed workers can qualify when they have established professional relationships with clients and meet the other requirements.<\/p>\n<p>The distinction between employment and freelance work is important because each category must show different paperwork to qualify.<\/p>\n<h4>The 20% Rule for Spanish Clients<\/h4>\n<p>Qualifying freelancers may provide services to Spanish companies, provided that the work does not exceed 20% of their total professional activity.<\/p>\n<p>The rule applies to professional activity conducted on a self-employed basis.<\/p>\n<p>Someone intending to work primarily for Spanish companies should consider a different work authorization.<\/p>\n<h4>Can You Apply With Multiple Clients?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes, provided the client relationships satisfy the required conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Contracts should demonstrate that the applicant has genuine professional activity, sufficient earnings and the ability to continue providing the services remotely.<\/p>\n<p>For freelancers, the visa application should also address registration under Spain&#8217;s self-employed Social Security system.<\/p>\n<h3>Spanish Social Security Requirements<\/h3>\n<p>Social Security is often one of the more complicated aspects of the digital nomad visa application. Applicants to the Spanish digital nomad visa must prove proper registration with Spanish Social Security. However, the way to do this is different depending on whether the applicant is employed or self-employed.<\/p>\n<h4>Employees<\/h4>\n<p>Employees must either have their employers register with Spanish Social Security OR provide a Certificate of Coverage, showing that the employee is covered by a social security system in another country.<\/p>\n<h4>Social Security Rules for Americans<\/h4>\n<p>Spain and the United States have a bilateral Social Security agreement.<\/p>\n<p>In qualifying circumstances, an American employee working temporarily in Spain may remain covered by the U.S. system.<\/p>\n<p>The employee generally needs an appropriate Certificate of Coverage from the U.S. Social Security Administration.<\/p>\n<p>However, the agreement does not automatically exempt every American remote worker from Spanish contributions.<\/p>\n<p>The employment arrangement, reason for working in Spain and applicable provisions of the agreement matter.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ssa.gov\/international\/CoC_link.html\">Read about the Certificate of Coverage in the US<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>Social Security for Freelancers<\/h4>\n<p>Self-employed digital nomads do not need a Certificate of Coverage, but they will generally need to register as an aut\u00f3nomo under Spain&#8217;s <em>R\u00e9gimen Especial de Trabajadores Aut\u00f3nomos<\/em>, known as RETA.<\/p>\n<p>They will pay contributions to Spanish Social Security, with the amount dependent upon their income.<\/p>\n<p>A freelancer comparing the cost of living in Spain with another country should include these payments alongside other costs like rent and income tax.<\/p>\n<h3>Health Insurance Requirements for Spain&#8217;s Digital Nomad Visa<\/h3>\n<p>Applicants must have acceptable healthcare coverage for their authorized stay. The requirements may vary slightly by consulate, but are generally:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>At least one year of coverage<\/li>\n<li>No deductibles or copays<\/li>\n<li>Policy issued by a company registered in Spain<\/li>\n<li>Travel insurance is NOT accepted<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Can Digital Nomads Use Spain&#8217;s Public Health System?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes, where their Social Security status provides entitlement to public healthcare.<\/p>\n<p>Employees registered under the Spanish Social Security system and self-employed professionals registered as aut\u00f3nomos can generally obtain public healthcare coverage because they are registered with Spanish Social Security.<\/p>\n<p>Spain&#8217;s public healthcare system is generally of very high quality, providing access to care and treatment for almost all medical needs, and is free at the point of receiving care.<\/p>\n<h3>How to Apply for Spain&#8217;s Digital Nomad Visa<\/h3>\n<p>There are two principal application routes.<\/p>\n<p>You can apply in your home country via a Spanish consulate or intermediary office (BLS), or you can apply from within Spain by sending applications directly to the Unidad de Grandes Empresas y Colectivos Estrat\u00e9gicos (UGE-CE).<\/p>\n<p>At StartAbroad, we always recommend applying from within Spain if possible. This is because an application submitted in Spain will result in a three year residency permit, while an application submitted at a consulate will only result in a one-year visa. UGE-CE application rules are also more standardized, while individual consulates may be able to apply their own rules and interpretations of immigration law.<\/p>\n<h4>Option 1: Apply Through a Spanish Consulate<\/h4>\n<p>If you must apply through the Spanish consulate or intermediary office, you can expect the following application process:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Identify the consulate with jurisdiction over your address and begin to search for an appointment.<\/li>\n<li>Collect required documentation, including a criminal background check and necessary apostilles.<\/li>\n<li>Prepare official Spanish translations of documents.<\/li>\n<li>Arrange health insurance coverage.<\/li>\n<li>Attend your appointment, submit documents, and pay the application fee.<\/li>\n<li>Respond to any requests for additional evidence.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Applicants should check their specific consulate&#8217;s requirements before making an appointment, and remember that many consulates now require applicants to schedule and attend appointments via intermediary offices run by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blsspainvisa.com\/\">BLS International<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>Option 2: Apply for a Residence Permit From Spain<\/h4>\n<p>Digital nomad applicants who are legally in Spain can apply for residency through UGE-CE. This route can provide an initial residence permit valid for up to three years. Applications are submitted electronically and reviewed within 20 business days.<\/p>\n<h4>Can Americans Enter on a Tourist Visa and Apply?<\/h4>\n<p>U.S. citizens generally do not need a tourist visa for short visits to Spain. They may enter the Schengen Area for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. Most American applicants enter Spain using this rule and submit their digital nomad visa applications shortly after arrival.<\/p>\n<p>Applicants should prepare all documents in advance of their travel, particularly documents requiring an apostille.<\/p>\n<h4>Spain Digital Nomad Visa vs Residence Permit<\/h4>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Feature<\/th>\n<th>Consular visa<\/th>\n<th>In-country residence permit<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Application location<\/td>\n<td>Abroad<\/td>\n<td>While legally present in Spain<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Responsible authority<\/td>\n<td>Spanish consulate<\/td>\n<td>UGE-CE<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Initial validity<\/td>\n<td>Up to one year<\/td>\n<td>Up to three years<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Renewal or continuation<\/td>\n<td>Apply for residence authorization, then two-year renewals<\/td>\n<td>Two-year renewals<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Documents Required for Spain&#8217;s Digital Nomad Visa<\/h3>\n<p>The exact checklist depends on the application route and jurisdiction. The principal required documents generally include:<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Document<\/th>\n<th>Purpose<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Completed application form<\/td>\n<td>Formal visa or residence request<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Valid passport<\/td>\n<td>Identity and nationality<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Passport photograph<\/td>\n<td>Identity verification<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Employment or client contracts<\/td>\n<td>Proof of qualifying professional activity<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Employer authorization<\/td>\n<td>Permission to work remotely from Spain<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Company registration certificate<\/td>\n<td>Evidence of at least one year of business activity<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Payslips, invoices or bank statements<\/td>\n<td>Financial eligibility<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>University degree, professional certificate or experience records<\/td>\n<td>Qualification requirement<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Criminal record certificate<\/td>\n<td>Background verification<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Criminal history declaration<\/td>\n<td>Required statement regarding any prior criminal records<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Healthcare documentation<\/td>\n<td>health insurance compliance<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Social Security documentation<\/td>\n<td>Evidence of the applicable contribution arrangements<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Proof of fee payment<\/td>\n<td>Administrative requirement<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Family records, where relevant<\/td>\n<td>Evidence of family relationship and dependency<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h4>Passport Requirements<\/h4>\n<p>Spanish consular guidance generally requires a passport valid for at least one year, issued within the preceding ten years and containing at least two blank pages. The passport must remain valid throughout the relevant immigration procedure.<\/p>\n<h4>Criminal Background Check<\/h4>\n<p>Applicants must generally demonstrate a clean criminal record in accordance with the applicable Spanish immigration requirements.<\/p>\n<p>Adult applicants normally provide criminal record certificates from countries where they have lived during the past two years, together with a declaration regarding criminal records during the previous five years.<\/p>\n<p>Additional documentary requirements can apply in certain in-country application circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>For Americans, Spanish consulates generally require an FBI Identity History Summary. In the UK, the ACRO background check is required. In Canada, the RCMP issues the required background check.<\/p>\n<p>This document must be issued recently &#8211; typical requirements are for an issuance date within the past six months. Applicants should verify the validity period accepted by their consulate if they are applying from outside of Spain.<\/p>\n<h4>Apostilles and Spanish Translations<\/h4>\n<p>Foreign public documents typically need to be apostilled before submission. This includes government-issued documents like background checks, Certificates of Coverage, marriage certificates, and birth certificates. It also includes official documents such as diplomas.<\/p>\n<p>There are different types of apostilles that may be relevant for your documents. For example, in the United States an FBI background check requires a federal apostille while state-issued records like birth certificates need a state-level apostille. In the UK there are paper-based or electronic apostilles. ACRO certificates and documents from the General Register Office require paper-based apostilles.<\/p>\n<p>Foreign documents also require official sworn Spanish translations (traducci\u00f3n jurada).<\/p>\n<p>Submitting all the required documents in the correct form can prevent requests for replacement records later in the application process.<\/p>\n<h3>Spain Digital Nomad Visa Fees in 2026<\/h3>\n<p>The visa fee depends on nationality and the consulate handling the application.<\/p>\n<p>For those applying in the UK, the fee in 2026 is 720 GBP. For those in the United States, it is $200-300 USD. In Canada the cost in 2026 is over $1500 CAD.<\/p>\n<p>Spanish consular charges can be affected by reciprocity arrangements and may be revised.<\/p>\n<p>Additional charges may apply depending on where the application is submitted. For example, BLS International charges their own service fees. The in-country residence authorization carries a separate administrative fee. Applicants should also budget for apostilles, official translations, fingerprints or background checks, healthcare coverage and any professional assistance.<\/p>\n<h3>How Long Does the Application Process Take?<\/h3>\n<p>Most applicants will need at least one to two months to collect, apostille, and translate all of the required documents for the digital nomad visa. At StartAbroad, we recommend three or more months of preparation time for a less stressful experience.<\/p>\n<p>Approval timelines vary depending upon how your submit your documents. For those applying from within Spain, the UGE-CE has 20 business days to provide a response. If they fail to respond within this timeframe, the application is considered administratively approved. Typically, the UGE-CE will either approve or ask for additional documents within the 20 business day allowance.<\/p>\n<p>For those applying from outside of Spain, approval timelines can vary considerably depending on location and over time. We recommend planning for one to three months of wait time as a general rule.<\/p>\n<h3>What Happens After Approval?<\/h3>\n<p>The next steps depend on whether you receive a consular visa or residence authorization.<\/p>\n<h4>Spain Digital Nomad Visa Validity<\/h4>\n<p>A consular digital nomad visa can be valid for up to one year. After approval, most visa holders would then move to Spain. To extend your time in Spain, you can apply for residency during the 60 calendar days before the visa expires.<\/p>\n<p>A digital nomad who is approved from within Spain will have residency for up to three years. You would then need to renew that residency. Residency is renewed in two-year periods. Residents are eligible for permanent residency after five years. For most nationalities, citizenship becomes available after ten years of legal residence. However, citizens of Latin American countries, the Philippines, Equatorial Guinea, Portugal, and Andorra, along with Sephardic Jews, can apply after just two years of legal residency.<\/p>\n<h4>Obtaining a Spanish Residence Permit Card<\/h4>\n<p>Two acronyms come up constantly in Spain: NIE and TIE. They are not the same thing.<\/p>\n<p>Your NIE is your foreigner identification number. You use it for taxes, banking, leases and almost every other admin task.<\/p>\n<p>Your TIE is your physical residence card. It shows your NIE, your photo and your residence status.<\/p>\n<p>To get your TIE, you book an appointment with the National Police, give your fingerprints, and return later to collect your card. We recommend applying within 30 days of arriving in Spain, or within 30 days of your approval if you applied from within Spain. Appointments can be hard to find in larger cities, so start looking early.<\/p>\n<h3>Can Spain Digital Nomad Visa Holders Travel Across Europe?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, for short trips. Your Spanish visa or residence card lets you visit other Schengen countries for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. You don&#8217;t need a separate Schengen visa.<\/p>\n<p>It does not let you live or work in another EU country. The digital nomad visa covers remote work while you live in Spain. If you want to move somewhere else in Europe, that country&#8217;s immigration rules apply.<\/p>\n<p>When you travel, carry your passport along with your visa or TIE. The European Commission&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/home-affairs.ec.europa.eu\/policies\/schengen\/border-crossing\/short-stay-calculator_en\">short-stay calculator<\/a> helps you count your days.<\/p>\n<h3>Can Family Members Join You in Spain?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. Your family can apply with you or join you later. According to Spain&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/bibliovirtual.inclusion.gob.es\/documents\/d\/unidadgrandesempresas\/nomadas-digitales-faqs-espanol\">Unidad de Grandes Empresas (UGE-CE)<\/a>, eligible family members include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Your spouse or unmarried partner.<\/li>\n<li>Your children under 18.<\/li>\n<li>Adult children who depend on you financially and haven&#8217;t formed their own family.<\/li>\n<li>Parents who depend on you financially.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each family member needs their own application. Marriage and birth certificates need apostilles and sworn Spanish translations. You also need to show extra income for each person, as explained in the income section above.<\/p>\n<h4>Can a Spouse Work in Spain?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes. This is one of the best parts of the digital nomad visa for families.<\/p>\n<p>The main applicant must work for companies outside Spain. Family members have no such limit. They can work for a Spanish company, a foreign company or for themselves. They register with Spanish Social Security like any other worker.<\/p>\n<h4>What About Schools for Children?<\/h4>\n<p>School is compulsory in Spain from age 6 to 16, and public schools are free. Children with legal residence can enroll.<\/p>\n<p>The language of instruction depends on the region. Catalonia, Valencia, the Basque Country, Galicia and the Balearic Islands teach partly in a regional language alongside Spanish.<\/p>\n<p>Public school places are usually assigned by address. Check catchment areas and enrollment deadlines before you sign a lease.<\/p>\n<p>Private and international schools are another option. Tuition varies widely and the more popular schools have limited availability with long waiting lists. We always recommend that families with school-age children decide on their school(s) early in the process, at least several months before their move.<\/p>\n<h3>Spain Digital Nomad Visa Taxes: How Does the Beckham Law Work?<\/h3>\n<p>Tax and immigration are separate systems. Getting the digital nomad visa doesn&#8217;t decide your tax status, and it doesn&#8217;t put you on the Beckham Law automatically.<\/p>\n<h4>When Do Digital Nomads Become Spanish Tax Residents?<\/h4>\n<p>You are generally a Spanish tax resident if you spend more than 183 days in Spain in a calendar year. You can also become one if your main business or economic interests are in Spain, or if your spouse and minor children live here.<\/p>\n<p>Spanish tax residents normally pay tax on their worldwide income at progressive rates. The Beckham Law is the main exception.<\/p>\n<h4>What Is the Beckham Law?<\/h4>\n<p>The Beckham Law is the nickname for a special tax regime for people who move to Spain to work. Since the 2022 Startup Law, remote workers on the digital nomad visa can potentially use it.<\/p>\n<p>If you qualify, you pay a flat 24% on employment income up to \u20ac600,000, instead of Spain&#8217;s regular progressive rates. Income above \u20ac600,000 is taxed at 47%. The regime covers the year you become a tax resident plus the following five years.<\/p>\n<p>It is not automatic. You have to opt in by filing Modelo 149 with Spain&#8217;s Tax Agency, generally within six months of starting work in Spain. You also can&#8217;t have been a Spanish tax resident in the previous five years.<\/p>\n<h4>What Are the Main Beckham Law Requirements?<\/h4>\n<p>This is where we stay careful. The rules, and how the Tax Agency applies them, have changed often since 2023. We don&#8217;t make blanket promises about who qualifies.<\/p>\n<p>A few things are clear:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Many freelancers who qualify for the visa don&#8217;t qualify for the Beckham Law.<\/li>\n<li>Eligibility is tied to your Social Security setup, and typically requires a Certificate of Coverage<\/li>\n<li>Under the regime, your salary is taxed in Spain even when a foreign company pays it.<\/li>\n<li>A flat 24% isn&#8217;t always the lowest bill. At moderate incomes, Spain&#8217;s regular rates and allowances can come out lower.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Get tax advice before you move, not after. The six-month filing window is easy to miss.<\/p>\n<h4>Can Self-Employed Digital Nomads Use the Beckham Law?<\/h4>\n<p>Not typically. Only certain self-employed activities can fall within eligible categories, including qualifying entrepreneurial activity or specified work by highly qualified professionals. Ordinary freelance services for overseas clients often do not meet those tests.<\/p>\n<p>We always recommend speaking with a Spanish accountant well-versed in expat tax before making assumptions about your future Spanish tax. A tax consultation is included in every <a href=\"https:\/\/startabroad.com\/services-spain\">StartAbroad Concierge package<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>How to Apply for the Beckham Law<\/h4>\n<p>You apply by filing Modelo 149 with Spain&#8217;s Tax Agency (Agencia Tributaria). This is a separate process from your visa application.<\/p>\n<p>The deadline is six months from the date you start working in Spain. That date comes from your Spanish Social Security registration, or from the document that keeps you covered by your home country&#8217;s system, such as a Certificate of Coverage.<\/p>\n<p>Before you file, you need an NIE and registration with the Tax Agency. Once you&#8217;re on the regime, you file your yearly tax return using Modelo 151 instead of the standard return.<\/p>\n<p>Six months goes quickly during a move. We recommend planning your Beckham Law application before you arrive.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sede.agenciatributaria.gob.es\/Sede\/procedimientoini\/G606.shtml\">See the Spanish Tax Agency&#8217;s official Modelo 149 procedure<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>Beckham Law vs Ordinary Spanish Income Tax<\/h4>\n<p>Spain&#8217;s ordinary income tax is progressive: the more you earn, the higher your rate. Your total rate combines a national portion and a regional portion, so it varies by where you live.<\/p>\n<p>The Beckham Law replaces that with a flat 24% on employment income up to \u20ac600,000. For higher earners, that can mean significant savings. For moderate earners, it may not. The ordinary system includes personal and family allowances that can bring your bill below 24%.<\/p>\n<p>Investments, family situation and Social Security contributions all affect the comparison. The only way to know which works better for you is to run the numbers both ways.<\/p>\n<h4>Can the Beckham Law Reduce Double Taxation?<\/h4>\n<p>Not on its own. Spain has tax treaties with many countries. These treaties set out which country can tax which income, and they help prevent you from paying tax twice. However, how those treaties interact with the Beckham Law is complicated, and no one should assume the Beckham Law removes double taxation automatically.<\/p>\n<p>US citizens need to look at this especially closely, because they keep filing US federal returns while living in Spain. Their Spanish and US tax positions should be planned together.<\/p>\n<h4>Do You Still Owe Taxes In Your Home Country While Living in Spain?<\/h4>\n<p>It depends on your nationality. Many countries tax based on where you live, so moving abroad usually changes your obligations there. Check your home country&#8217;s rules for leaving its tax system.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For US citizens:<\/strong> the US taxes citizens wherever they live. You still file a US federal return on your worldwide income. The Foreign Earned Income Exclusion and Foreign Tax Credit can reduce or remove double taxation, and you may need to report foreign bank accounts. Spain and the US also have a tax treaty.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/individuals\/international-taxpayers\/us-citizens-and-resident-aliens-abroad\">Read the IRS guidance for Americans living abroad<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Spain Digital Nomad Visa vs Non-Lucrative Visa<\/h3>\n<p>Spain&#8217;s non lucrative visa is another residence route available to qualifying non-EU citizens.<\/p>\n<p>However, the purpose of the two visas is different.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Feature<\/th>\n<th>Digital Nomad Visa<\/th>\n<th>Non-Lucrative Visa<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Intended applicant<\/td>\n<td>Qualifying foreign remote worker<\/td>\n<td>Person able to support themselves without working<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Can you work?<\/td>\n<td>Yes, remotely for companies outside Spain.

It is not a budget. What you need to live well depends heavily on the city you choose.<\/p>\n<p>Housing is the biggest variable. Madrid, Barcelona and popular coastal areas have the most expensive rental markets. Smaller cities and inland areas cost noticeably less.<\/p>\n<p>When you build your budget, include the costs that are easy to forget:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Private health insurance, if you use it for your application.<\/li>\n<li>Social Security contributions, especially if you are self-employed.<\/li>\n<li>Income tax in Spain, and in your home country if it still applies.<\/li>\n<li>School tuition, if you choose private or international schools.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Where Do Digital Nomads Live in Spain?<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Madrid:<\/strong> Strong transport links, plenty of coworking spaces and a large rental market. The capital city, with every available amenity you could need. Central neighborhoods are more expensive.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Barcelona:<\/strong> A large international community with a Mediterranean climate, good food and cultural offerings, and beach access. Rental demand is high, especially in the center. Often more expensive than Madrid.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Valencia:<\/strong> Big-city services and beaches, and more affordable than central Madrid or Barcelona.<\/li>\n<li><strong>M\u00e1laga:<\/strong> Growing in popularity with digital nomads, with coastal views and beach access.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seville and Granada:<\/strong> Lower-cost alternatives to the largest cities, with warm climates and rich Spanish culture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>No two moves are the same &#8211; the right city depends on your work, your family and your budget.<\/p>\n<h3>Can the Spain Digital Nomad Visa Lead to Permanent Residency?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. Time on the digital nomad visa counts toward permanent residency, which you can apply for after five years of continuous legal residence.<\/p>\n<p>You don&#8217;t need to switch visas to get there. You renew your digital nomad residency every two years for as long as you still meet the requirements. Long absences from Spain can break the five-year count, so track your time abroad.<\/p>\n<p>Permanent residency is a separate application. It doesn&#8217;t happen automatically.<\/p>\n<h4>Can Digital Nomads Eventually Obtain Spanish Citizenship?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes, but it takes longer. For most nationalities, you can apply for citizenship after ten years of legal residence. Citizens of Latin American countries, the Philippines, Equatorial Guinea, Portugal, and Andorra, along with Sephardic Jews, can apply after just two years of legal residency.<\/p>\n<p>Citizenship has its own requirements beyond residence time, including language and civic knowledge exams. Like permanent residency, it is a separate application.<\/p>\n<h3>Common Spain Digital Nomad Visa Application Mistakes<\/h3>\n<p>Most delays come from paperwork, not eligibility. These are the mistakes we see most often:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Applying from a consulate when you could apply from Spain.<\/strong> A consulate gives you a 1-year visa. Applying from Spain gives you up to 3 years.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Using the wrong income figure.<\/strong> Spain&#8217;s minimum wage is set over 14 payments. If you&#8217;re paid 12 times a year, you need at least \u20ac2,849 a month, not the lower 14-payment figure.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mixing up the two time rules.<\/strong> You need at least three months with your employer or clients. Your employer needs at least one year in business. These are separate requirements.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Missing company documents.<\/strong> A contract alone won&#8217;t prove your employer has existed for a year. You usually need registration documents, apostilled and translated.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Assuming you need a degree.<\/strong> Three years of relevant work experience also qualifies, if you document it properly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leaving Social Security for last.<\/strong> Certificates of Coverage and employer registration take time. Start early.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Buying the wrong health insurance.<\/strong> Travel insurance doesn&#8217;t count. Neither do policies with copays or deductibles, or insurers not registered in Spain.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Letting documents expire.<\/strong> Background checks usually need to be issued within the last six months. Time your apostilles and translations around your submission date.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Assuming the Beckham Law is automatic.<\/strong> It is a separate tax election with its own deadline, and many visa holders don&#8217;t qualify.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Treating Schengen travel as a right to live elsewhere.<\/strong> Your visa covers living in Spain, with short trips around Europe.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>How StartAbroad Can Help With Spain&#8217;s Digital Nomad Visa<\/h3>\n<p>You don&#8217;t know what you don&#8217;t know.

Meeting the income threshold is only the first step.<\/p>\n<p>Employees need written permission from their employer and the right company documents. Freelancers need established clients and a self-employed registration plan. Everyone needs Social Security and health coverage sorted before they apply.<\/p>\n<p>The Beckham Law is a separate decision. Look at it before you move, especially if you&#8217;re self-employed or have several types of income.<\/p>\n<p>Most relocation help drops off after the visa. We don&#8217;t.

Getting the card early still makes everyday admin easier.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<details id=\"e-n-accordion-item-38911\" class=\"e-n-accordion-item\" >\n\t\t\t\t<summary class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title\" data-accordion-index=\"12\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"e-n-accordion-item-38911\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-header'><div class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title-text\"> Can you travel around Europe on the digital nomad visa? <\/div><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-icon'>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-opened' ><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"38\" height=\"38\" viewBox=\"0 0 38 38\" fill=\"none\"><circle cx=\"19\" cy=\"19\" r=\"18.5\" transform=\"rotate(90 19 19)\" fill=\"#090825\" stroke=\"black\"><\/circle><path d=\"M20.3376 25.4405L18.6623 25.4405L18.6623 13.9528L13.5168 19.0983L12.3201 17.9017L19.5 10.7218L26.6798 17.9017L25.4832 19.0983L20.3376 13.9528L20.3376 25.4405Z\" fill=\"white\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-closed'><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"38\" height=\"38\" viewBox=\"0 0 38 38\" fill=\"none\"><circle cx=\"19\" cy=\"19\" r=\"18.5\" transform=\"rotate(-90 19 19)\" stroke=\"black\"><\/circle><path d=\"M17.6624 12.5595L19.3377 12.5595L19.3377 24.0472L24.4832 18.9017L25.6799 20.0983L18.5 27.2782L11.3202 20.0983L12.5168 18.9017L17.6624 24.0472L17.6624 12.5595Z\" fill=\"#1C1B1F\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-38911\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ddcbe29 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"ddcbe29\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8300bf2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8300bf2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, for up to 90 days in any 180-day period in other Schengen countries.

Many nationalities, including US, UK, Canadian and Australian citizens, can enter Spain without a visa for up to 90 days in any 180-day period.
