WHY CLIENTS BOOK
What Spanish Residence May Offer
Live, Work or Study in Spain
Depending on your case, there may be a legal route for you to live, work or study in Spain.
No More Short-Stay Schengen Visa Applications
With a qualifying Spanish long-stay visa or residence permit, you no longer need to apply for a separate short-stay Schengen visa before each trip.
Visit Your Partner or Family
Spanish residence could make regular visits to loved ones in Europe easier to plan.
Keep Living in the UAE
Some legal routes offer flexibility around relocation timing and Spanish tax residence, depending on your circumstances.
No More Short-Stay Schengen Visa Applications
Once you hold a qualifying Spanish long-stay visa or residence permit, you do not need to apply for a separate short-stay Schengen visa before each trip. Your Spanish status can be used for short visits across the Schengen area, subject to the applicable travel rules.
Use Your Spanish Status to Travel
A qualifying Spanish long-stay visa or residence permit generally allows short visits to other Schengen countries for up to 90 days in any 180-day period, subject to applicable rules.
Understand the Tax Position First
Spanish residence and Spanish tax residence are separate legal questions. Your time in Spain, economic interests, family and other circumstances determine your individual position.
Your Spanish status supports short visits across the Schengen area. Living or working in another Schengen state remains subject to that country’s rules. Spanish tax residence and administrative residence are separate legal questions that your consultation will address in relation to your circumstances.
