Visa Information
For non-EU citizens, Spain is part of the Schengen Area. Tourists can stay up to 90 days within a 180-day period without a visa. For longer stays, Spain offers a Digital Nomad Visa (DNV) for remote workers earning income from outside Spain. This visa requires proof of income, health insurance, and a clean criminal record. The application process can take several weeks to months, so it's advisable to start early. EU citizens have the right to live and work in Spain without a visa.
