One missing document can stall a Digital Nomad Visa for months.
We find the gaps before the UGE does.
The Digital Nomad Visa lets you live in Spain while you work for an employer or clients abroad. We check that you qualify, audit and translate every document, file with the UGE or hand you a ready consulate booklet, and stay with you after approval.
Free account, no card. UGE fees are included on the UGE route; consular fees are paid to the consulate.

- You earn at least €2,849 a month, more with family

- You live off savings or investments (Non-Lucrative Visa)
Not sure? Your case manager confirms the route in your free eligibility review.
Most visa services stop at approval. We don't.
The UGE reads contracts, bank statements and Social Security cover side by side. When they don't tell the same story, it asks for more, and the clock stops. Here's what we do at every stage.
Before filing
- Eligibility review and route advice: UGE in Spain or a consulate abroad
- Your income calculated against the threshold, including family
- A personalised checklist and a full document audit
- Sworn translations included, up to €150 per adult
Getting approved
- UGE route: we file for you, with the UGE fee included
- Consulate route: a ready-to-present booklet
- Answers to any request for more documents
- Appeals included if you're refused unfairly
- A named case manager, your dashboard, the app and Carlos AI
Settling in
- TIE residency card: appointment, form and fee guidance
- Empadronamiento and bank account guidance
- Digital certificate and public health card guidance
- Freelancers: we guide you through the autónomo steps
- Renewal window tracked from day one
Honest note: biometrics and TIE fingerprints are in person. We tell you exactly what to bring, so you only go once.
What you'll need to show, and when to look elsewhere.
We check all of these in your free eligibility review.
Main requirements
- Remote work for an employer or clients outside Spain, for at least three months before you apply
- Income of at least €2,849 a month (200% of Spain's minimum wage), plus €1,069 for the first family member and €355 for each one after
- A university degree, or at least three years' relevant professional experience
- A clean criminal record and visa-compliant private health insurance
Probably not for you if…
We'll say so before you pay.
- Most of your income comes from Spanish clients
- You plan to take a job with a Spanish company (look at Highly Skilled Worker)
- You live off savings or investments (look at Non-Lucrative)
- You're counting on the Beckham Law as a freelancer: it generally doesn't apply
Same visa, same fee. Different paperwork.
How you get paid changes what the UGE asks for and what you do after approval. Here's the difference.
You're a remote employee
- You stay on your employer's payroll; the company is based outside Spain and has been operating for at least a year
- Spanish Social Security has to be covered, through a certificate of coverage where your country has an agreement with Spain or through your employer. It's one of the first things we check
- You don't register as autónomo
- The Beckham Law is mainly for employees, so it may apply to you
You're a freelancer
- Your clients are mainly outside Spain: no more than 20% of your work can be for Spanish clients
- You show a working relationship of at least three months, and proof you're registered as self-employed at home
- After approval you register as autónomo before you invoice from Spain. We guide you through the steps, and a tax advisor can file it
- Freelancers generally can't use the Beckham Law

Digital Nomad Visa questions
If you receive a salary through payroll from one employer abroad, you're an employee. If you invoice one or more clients, you're self-employed, and you register as autónomo in Spain after approval, before you start invoicing from here. We guide you through those steps. Your case manager confirms which applies in your eligibility review.
Yes, and it's the most common route we see. Applying from inside Spain during a legal stay sends the case to the UGE, which can grant a residence permit of up to three years from the start. Applying at a consulate abroad gives a one-year visa first.
With limits. As a freelancer you can work for Spanish clients as long as that's no more than 20% of your total professional activity. Remote employees work for their employer abroad.
Generally not as a freelancer. The special regime is mainly aimed at employees: a remote employee of a foreign company may qualify for a flat 24% rate on earnings up to €600,000 a year, instead of Spain's progressive rates of up to 47%. Freelancers generally can't use it. We flag which tax situation applies to you during your eligibility review; confirm the details with a tax advisor.
At least €2,849 a month for you, which is 200% of Spain's minimum wage. Add €1,069 a month for the first family member and €355 for each one after. We calculate your exact figure before you pay.
In parts: €300 when you sign up, €500 before case processing, then €599 only once your visa is approved. Children are €500 each. If your visa isn't approved, you don't make the last payment.
No. Our fee is flat and covers case management and sworn translations up to €150 per adult. On the UGE route the UGE fee is included too. On the consulate route, consular fees are paid by you to the consulate. Apostilles, background checks, health insurance and the TIE card fee are yours to pay, and we list them before you pay anything.
Approved or you don't pay us: if your visa isn't approved, you don't make the last payment. Earlier payments and government or consular fees aren't refunded. Appeals against unfounded refusals are included, and we tell you whether a new application or a different visa makes sense. Conditions apply.
