Find the Spanish residence route that actually fits, without empty promises

We run the case from the first consultation to the resident card. We also handle taxes, autónomo and SL registration, renewals, permanent residence and citizenship. Refusals and difficult cases included.

If the application is refused, we file again at our own cost

Refiling and answering the authority’s follow-up requests are part of the service and are written into the contract. The decision belongs to the state; the risk of doing the work twice is ours.

This suggests a route. It is not an assessment of your chances and not legal advice. The decision is made by a state authority.

Questions

The questions almost every consultation starts with

Short answers, without hiding behind “it depends”. Where it genuinely depends, we say so.

On several routes, yes — the application is filed inside the country, without going back to your country of citizenship. It changes both the timeline and the document set, so it is the first thing we check.

Digital Nomad Visa requirements →

Yes, the route allows work for several foreign clients. What gets checked is the share of income from Spanish clients and how long you have worked with each of them.

The requirements in detail →

The family goes into the same application. The income requirement rises accordingly, and so does the fee — we name both figures before the contract.

Work out the figures for my family →

We name the price after reviewing your situation and fix it in the contract before any work starts. It does not move as the case goes on.

On top of it you pay directly: government fees, sworn translations and apostilles, the medical policy, and the consular fee if you apply from abroad. We make no margin on any of those.

For the Digital Nomad Visa it is 200% of the minimum wage, €2,849/mo for the main applicant. The figure is recalculated every year, and each page carries the date it was last checked.

Requirements for every route →

Refiling is part of the service and is not billed separately. We handle the authority’s follow-up requests ourselves. There is no refund on a refusal — the work has been done, and the decision is not ours to make.

For the Digital Nomad Visa the legal term is 20 working days from filing with UGE, and silence from the authority counts as approval. The Startup Visa takes longer: ENISA assesses the project first, and the two stages together run to 2–3 months. A follow-up request from the authority moves that date, and it is a normal part of the procedure, not a refusal.

File your tax returns, keep the grounds for your stay intact, and do not miss the renewal window. Most problems appear not at filing but a year or two later.

Straight talk

What we do not promise, and what we answer for

We do not promise approval. The decision belongs to a state authority; the quality of the work is ours.

If there is no workable route in your situation, we say so and turn the case down.

No “100% approval” and no “high approval rate” — nobody working within the law can promise that.

We handle the authorities’ follow-up requests ourselves, at no extra charge.

Refiling after a refusal is part of the service.
