Spain might be among the best places to live. The weather is nice, the food is delicious, and the atmosphere is charming. So, the Spanish territory might be a good choice for people from other countries who want to live abroad for a long time.
A non-lucrative visa in Spain may be your best bet if you want to move to Spain. To apply for a permit to Spain, you must meet specific requirements.
We hope today’s discussion will provide clear and precise information about the non-lucrative visa, allowing you to reside in Spain without difficulty.
▶️ In this conversation we talk about the following topics:
• Am I eligible for the Non-Lucrative visa and what are the requirements?
• Does having a property in Spain help to obtain a Non-Lucrative visa?
• If I had a felony/ incident years ago, am I still eligible for this visa?
• Can I apply for a Non-Lucrative visa while I’m in Spain as a tourist?
• How do I prove, I am not working when I am self-employed or have my own company?
• Does my pension work as proof of income? Do I need to show my bank statements too?
• How do you deliver the documents to our country?
• How long does it take to get the approval?
• Am I able to work remotely while on an NLV?
• How much will I pay as a Non-Lucrative visa tax resident?
• How long is the validity of the Non-Lucrative visa?
• How long can I leave Spain with a Non- Lucrative visa?
• Is it hard to file for renewal?
• And a lot more follow-up questions...
• Plus, she answered some of the questions the viewers sent in!
Non-Lucrative Visa Spain is created for foreigners seeking to live in Spain full-time without working or making a substantial investment. This residence permit allows you to remain in Spain for one year, with the option to extend your stay through the renewal procedure.
One of its most prominent qualities is the inability to engage in any form of economic or professional activity in Spain. In other words, you are prohibited from working for any company in the country. It is a nonprofit organization.
However, you do not need to invest in the country to acquire a visa. In addition to its few other requirements, this makes it an easy visa to get and complete.
With the nonprofit visa, all you need to worry about is having the funds to support yourself (and your family). You can obtain residency if you demonstrate that you have sufficient funds and that your stay in the country will not cost the government anything.
If you have sufficient funds to maintain yourself and your family, you should be eligible for an NLV. Bureaucracy.ES can assist you with NLV applications.
Bureaucracy.ES is a corporation that provides visa services. They have a staff of qualified, experienced individuals committed to superior customer service.
Bureaucracy International Group's objective is to make the visa application procedure as easy and stress-free as possible. They make a great effort to ensure that all of our services adhere to the highest quality and dependability requirements.

    Very informative video. It really answers a lot of the important questions of obtaining the NLV visa. Question: will my retirement US Social Security income be taxed by both countries countries when I file for my annual taxes with IRS & Spain plus what is the approximate tax percentage that Spain will charge on foreign income? The representative did answer that it is on an individual basis, but did not mention what is the tax percentage on income in Spain? Another, second question is if you do have a pre-existing condition can you just obtain a CIGNA global health insurance policy for the first year and pay monthly premiums that does cover the pre-existing condition for your first year after you obtain your non-lucrative visa or does it have to be a Spanish private company? The reason I ask is because you may not want to remain the entire year if things are not working out for you and avoid so much money upfront. And can I keep my savings in the US during my first year living in Spain to see how it works out? Thank you so much for all your efforts in helping us out here in California.

    Hi there, thanks for this video. I’m a Turkish citizen and planning to apply for non-lucrative visa. And again I couldn’t find a solid answer about renting situation. Should I understand that If I were an American, Canadian or Australian, I didn’t have to make a rent contract for a year. Just an airbnb would be enough. But I’m Turkish and I have to do that 12 months contract? My lawyer in Spain says it is mandatory. Also when you are not a Spanish citizen, home owners don’t trust you and they only rent their houses by taking 12 months rent. It is a big risk because the consultancy can decline your applications although you paid 12 months rent..

    Hi there! Great question. In order to apply for a non-lucrative visa in Spain, you will need to have a valid passport. However, there is no specific requirement for the passport to be valid for a minimum of twelve months. As long as your daughter's passport is valid at the time of application, you should be good to go. It's important to keep in mind that the non-lucrative visa application process can take several months, so it's a good idea to start the process as early as possible to ensure everything is in order before your planned move in October 2023. I hope this helps!

    Hi Paul and Bea, last week we had an appointment with the Spanish consulate in Mumbai. However, our NLV application was not accepted as we did not provide a proof of accommodation. Our immigration lawyer is based in Barcelona and she had informed us that proof of accommodation is not required, unless it is specifically mentioned on the Consulate’s website. There’s no mentioning of proof of accommodation on the website of the Consulate General of Spain in Mumbai. Yet, they refused to accept our application and advised us to come back with a proof of an Airbnb booking of atleast 30 nights. The problem is that we won’t be arriving in Spain until approx 3 months following our appointment date and house owners on Airbnb might not be willing to accept a booking 3 months in advance. Did you guys face such a challenge?

    This is not legal advice! From what we know and understand… You can change to permanent residency after 5 years of continuous living in Spain, provided that you stay 10 months a year in Spain. You can change to work visa anytime with a job offer and you meet the requirements. As for working outside of Spain, we don’t know if there’s a law against it. It may affect your NLV renewal, but I recommend reaching out to an immigration expert like Bureaucracy.es/everythingisboffo

I have seen several websites where it states for a NLV you need 28 thousand € in savings then another website says you have to at least have 2200 € a month of steady income like retirement and then another website says either or. Would you happen to know what it really might be. I’m in the US and in Texas. I don’t have savings but I have way more a month than 2200€

He has no savings but apparently a state pension or PIP is accepted ? Thats crazy. Also nobody has that amount of money we are told thats needed unless you are a lawyer or plastic surgeon. They have made it impossible!! Also the consultant advised me there is no need to have an entire years of medical insurance. The insurance company will tell you this because they know people will take out an insurance and then cancel it and get it cheaper once they have their residency.

You have to get pin pointed to get into any countries and get oin pointed when leaving a country. Please i am not having a go and anyone i am just trying toake sense of all of this . For example .... It was absolutely fine when you had a United Kingdom passport and you could go and travel and work any parts of Europe. Then came along Bexit which for what I understood we the people had really no voice to say here and now you cant work easily in the European anymore ... Its like when are we all going to wake up from this one world order where you mostly dont have choices in quite a lot things ... My point is we are all from one amazing beautiful place call Gaia .
