Golden Visa

The Spanish Golden Visa is a residency-by-investment program designed for non-EU citizens who want to live, work, and study in Spain through a qualifying investment. It is one of Europe’s most flexible residency options, offering fast processing, family inclusion, and full freedom of movement within the Schengen Area.

The Golden Visa grants residency rights to non-EU nationals who invest in Spain through one of the government-approved investment routes. In exchange, applicants and their families receive:

  • The right to live and work in Spain
  • Schengen travel freedom
  • Access to healthcare and education
  • The possibility to apply for permanent residency and citizenship over time

There is no minimum stay requirement, making it ideal for international investors who wish to keep their primary residence elsewhere.

The Spanish Golden Visa allows you to live and work in Spain, travel freely within the Schengen Area, and include your spouse, children, and dependent parents under the same permit. It provides access to Spain’s healthcare and education systems, offers fast approval, and can be renewed without needing to reside in the country. Your investment benefits from Spain’s stable real estate and financial markets, while also giving you a clear path toward permanent residency and future citizenship.

Duration & Renewal 

Investment Guidance

We explain each investment route, help you choose the most appropriate option, and work with trusted professionals when needed.

Renewals

After the initial 3 years, the permit can be renewed every 2 years. To renew, you only need to:

  • Maintain your qualifying investment
  • Keep valid health insurance
  • Demonstrate sufficient financial means
  • Continue meeting general requirements

No Minimum Stay Requirement

You do not need to live in Spain to maintain or renew the Golden Visa.
This flexibility makes it ideal for global investors who prefer not to become tax residents.

Path to Long-Term residency and citizenship

  • After 5 years, you may apply for permanent residency (requires actual residence in Spain).
  • After 10 years, you may apply for Spanish citizenship (general rule, subject to residence requirements and integration).
