The Digital Nomad Visa offers an attractive option for professionals looking to live and work in Spain while maintaining their remote employment. This visa is designed for freelancers and employees of companies based outside of Spain, allowing them to reside in the country while working for clients or companies abroad.
To be eligible for the Digital Nomad Visa, applicants must prove they have stable employment and a regular income from sources outside Spain. Candidates need to demonstrate their ability to work remotely using digital technologies and have ongoing work contracts or professional commitments.
This visa is particularly beneficial for those seeking to enjoy Spain’s quality of life while continuing their international career. It provides the flexibility to reside in Spain for one year, with the option to renew the visa for additional periods, as long as eligibility conditions are still met.
The documents required to obtain this visa include:
- A passport (valid for at least 12 months from the application date)
- Visa application form
- Proof of sufficient funds to support yourself during your stay
- A work contract or proof of remote professional activity
- A criminal record check

All public documents must be translated into Spanish by a sworn translator. It’s important to note that this visa does not require real estate or financial investment in Spain, making it accessible to a broader range of professionals wishing to experience a digital nomad lifestyle in Spain.
It is not necessary to obtain a visa if you want to buy a house and reside in Spain for less than 90 days every 6 months.
