Non-Lucrative Visa in Spain | Documents & Requirements | Everything you need to know!

If you are planning to move to Spain... the Non-Lucrative residency visa will for sure be one of your preferred options. This residence permit allows you to live in Spain for one year (with the possibility to renew), without working.
One of its main advantages is its easiness when it comes to application requirements: you just need to demonstrate the possession of 26.000€ in your bank account and have private health insurance, and the visa is yours!
For whom is the non-lucrative residency visa ideal?
-For those who want to retire in Spain, hence its second name "retirement visa"
-For remote workers who would like to establish in the Spanish territory
-For any individual who wants to live in Spain for one year without working, but then moving to a work permit

    Two questions: 1. The not lucrative visa requires to stay minimum 180 days per year in Spain. What happens if one needs to care for a family member and has to stay longer than 180 days outside of Spain? will the visa be cancelled and need to reapply with all the paperwork and legal costs allover again? 2. If after 5 years of non-lucrative visa I obtain Spanish residency, will I become a taxed subject for capital gains, worldwide income or wealth tax?

    Such an invaluable content. I'm a filipino national living in Dubai and I want to move and migrate in Spain. Ive been thinking about doing a language course or a Masters degree in Business in Madrid. Though, I am still quite uncertain what are the best visa or permits I have to secure in order for me to continue with the permanent residency to citizenship for filipinos (2 years) your top advice would be of great help. Thanks!

    Hi so if I did understand you right when you apply to get the residency you do not have to move the 26k to Spain for the first year and 52k for the second one at any moment, i can still use my visa card wich is related to a bank account in my country isn't ? As long as I show how much I have on it no?

    Excellent Video and content. I am a US citizen wanting to apply for NL Visa. Prrof of funds, health, criminal record etc no problem. Myself, my wife and 36 year old son all want to move under NLV. Question- 1. How much is your fees for processing the 3 applications- Total cost including translations of document, and any assistance through applying for residency card after arrival so no surprises on fees.. 2. with a NLV can i move around all of the EU countries freely during the 1 year NL Visa period. 3. My main goal for applying NL Visa is to travel around all EU countries for pleasure tourism and does the NLVisa allow that during the entire year. 4. I can come under a Schengen visa and that allows 90 days in a 180 day period and is not convenienent. 5. Ae the rules you explained still the same and currentl. 6. The proof of finance i show do i have to move to a spanish bank or canb itg stay in USA. Your response will be greatly appreciaterd. Mucho Gracias.
