The non-lucrative visa is one of the easiest routes to permanent residency in Spain.
If you have sufficient funds and are not planning to undertake any type of professional activity, this visa is the best option for you. It enables non-EU citizens to live in the country as long as they’re able to financially support themselves and their family.
This visa allows you to stay for an initial year. After that you can renew it every two years until you qualify for permanent residency. And once this visa is authorised, Expat Solutions can help you organise everything else here in Spain, including:
- Finding a house to rent or buy.
- Completing your padrón – this is the registration of your home address.
- Opening a bank account.
- Choosing a health insurance provider.
- Booking and accompanying you to your police appointment.
Some things to remember
With this type of visa you’re not officially allowed to work in Spain or spend more than 180 days outside the country.
Where to apply for a non-lucrative visa
You can submit the paperwork for a non-lucrative visa at the Spanish Embassy in your home country.
