Golden Visa
(Investor Visa)

The Spanish Golden Visa program was launched in 2013, designed to attract non-EU investors, entrepreneurs, and their family members by offering residency in exchange for significant investment in Spain. This initiative not only serves as a bridge for investors to Spain and Europe but also promotes local economic development.

Ways to Obtain

  • An initial investment of at least 2 million euros in Spanish public debt securities, or 1 million euros in stocks or shares in Spanish companies undertaking actual business activities, or in investment or venture capital funds incorporated in Spain, or in bank deposits in Spanish financial institutions.

  • The purchase of unencumbered real estate for a minimum of 500,000 euros, (if the investment is made by a couple married in community of property, one of the spouses may obtain an investor visa, and the other spouse, a visa as a family member of the investor).

  • A business project in Spain considered to be of general interest, as regards the creation of jobs, the significant socio-economic impact on the geographical area in which the project is to be carried out, or its significant contribution to scientific or technological innovation. In this case, the visa may be obtained by a representative designated by the investor to manage the project.

Required Documents

  • A valid passport and a recent, passport-size, colour photograph

  • A non-criminal record certificate

  • Proof of health insurance

  • Investment proof documents (e.g., property deeds, investment agreements)

  • Financial evidence showing the applicant has sufficient funds to support themselves in Spain

  • No actual residency requirement in Spain

  • After a certain period, it is possible to apply for permanent residency and even Spanish citizenship
The Spanish Golden Visa offers significant convenience for non-EU citizens wishing to enter Spain and Europe through investment.
