Hiszpańska wiza nomady cyfrowego: krok po kroku (2026)

Frequently asked

What is Spain’s digital nomad visa income threshold?

Typically 200% of Spanish minimum wage — roughly €2,650-2,800/month in 2026 — for the main applicant, with additional uplift for family members. Confirm the current figure when you apply; consulates use the latest published value.

Do I need employer or freelance contracts?

Yes. Employees need a contract showing remote work is allowed and the company has at least 12 months of trading history. Freelancers need active contracts with foreign clients showing recurring income. Generic invoices are usually not enough.

What is the Beckham law angle for nomads?

Spain’s nomad visa holders can elect into the Beckham regime — a flat ~24% tax on Spanish-source income for up to 6 years instead of progressive rates. It is the headline tax advantage of the visa for higher earners.

How long does the application take?

From consulate or in Spain, 20-30 working days for the initial decision. Plan 3 months end-to-end including document preparation, sworn translations and apostilles. The TIE card appointment in Spain adds another few weeks after arrival.

Can my spouse and kids come with me?

Yes, family reunification is supported from day one. Each dependent raises the income threshold by ~75% for spouse and ~25% for each additional family member. Apply for all together to avoid back-and-forth at the consulate.
