Retire to Spain, or simply stop working there.
We get the consulate paperwork right first time.
The Non-Lucrative Visa is for people with savings or passive income who won't work in Spain, not even remotely. You apply in person at the Spanish consulate where you live. We hand you a paginated, ready-to-present booklet so that appointment is the easy part.
Free account, no card. Consular fees are paid directly to the consulate.
