Routes

Options we consider

01

Digital Nomad Visa (DNV) — international remote work visa

A Spanish visa or residence authorisation for international remote employees and independent professionals.

What the preparation depends on

  • Contracts permit remote work and match the work actually performed
  • Income and its regularity can be evidenced
  • Insurance and family documents have been considered in advance

Risks

What can weaken an otherwise promising application

  1. 01

    Translating documents before checking the substance

    An apostille and a translation fix a document in its current form. Weak clauses, incorrect periods and contradictions should be resolved first.

  2. 02

    Failing to align the contract, duties and payments

    The role, permission to work remotely, invoices and actual receipts should not contradict one another.

  3. 03

    Assuming travel insurance will always be sufficient

    Requirements depend on the filing route, the applicant's position and the cover provided. The policy must be checked against the actual circumstances.

  4. 04

    Leaving social security until the end

    Applicable agreements, proof of cover and employer obligations can affect both the document set and the preparation timetable.
