Non-Lucrative Visa
in Spain

The non-lucrative visa in Spain offers a unique opportunity for individuals seeking to enjoy the Spanish way of life without engaging in economic activities. It caters to those who can financially support themselves and wish to live in Spain for longer periods, whether to retire, write, study, or simply soak in the rich culture and beautiful landscapes.

What is the Non-Lucrative Visa?

The non-lucrative visa is a type of residency permit that allows individuals to reside in Spain without working or performing professional activities. It is designed for those with sufficient funds to cover their living expenses in Spain, ensuring they do not need to seek employment.

  • Retirees looking to spend their retirement years in Spain.

  • Individuals with passive income or substantial savings.

  • Parents wishing to accompany their children studying in Spain.

  • Remote workers and digital nomads with income from outside Spain.

How to Obtain

  • Application Submission: Applicants must submit their visa application at the Spanish consulate or embassy in their home country.

  • Financial Proof: Demonstrating sufficient financial means is crucial, requiring proof of significant savings or steady passive income.

  • Health Insurance: Applicants need comprehensive health insurance coverage from a company operating in Spain.

Required Documents

  • A valid passport.

  • Proof of financial means (bank statements, pension receipts, etc.).

  • A clean criminal record certificate from the applicant’s home country.

  • A medical certificate proving the applicant does not suffer from any diseases that could pose a public health risk.

  • Access to Spain and Schengen Area: With this visa, residents can freely travel within the Schengen Zone, enjoying the freedom of movement across Europe.
