Frequently asked questions
Answers to the questions we hear most often.
Does the non-lucrative visa prohibit all work?
This visa generally requires no work or business activity in Spain. If you intend to work remotely or take employment in Spain, choose the relevant digital nomad or work route.
How are the financial requirements for the non-lucrative visa assessed?
Authorities generally assess means using multiples of benchmarks such as IPREM, with possible additions for family members. The official guidance at your place of submission determines the amount and form of evidence.
Who is the digital nomad visa for?
It commonly applies to people working remotely for a company outside Spain or providing self-employed services to overseas partners, subject to official requirements. Ongoing remote work and the required documents must be evidenced.
Are qualifications or experience required for the digital nomad route?
Many application requirements call for a relevant qualification or a specified period of work experience. The checklist of your consulate or official application page applies.
Can I work remotely on a non-lucrative visa?
Whether remote work is permitted depends on the guidance of your consular jurisdiction. If remote work is your purpose, the digital nomad route should generally be assessed first.
Why are documents so important for renting?
Spanish landlords and agents often place strong emphasis on ability to pay and stability. Clear application documents make communication more efficient.
Can you guarantee a visa or a rental property?
No. We can improve route assessment, document completeness and timeline management, and identify risks earlier.
