Golden Visa
This service is available across Spain

Who Is This Service For?
Introduced by Law 14/2013, the Golden Visa in Spain offers high net-worth individuals and their families the possibility to live and work in Spain. The Visa is initially valid for two years, renewable for 5 years and eventually a permanent residency visa and even naturalisation to become a Spanish citizen (after 10 years residency) is an option.

Requirements
Standard requirements for successful applications for this visa:
- Main applicant must be over 18 years of age
- Valid passport
- Valid Birth Certificate
- Suitable private health insurance
- No criminal record in Spain or in country of Origin
- Evidence of having made one of the approved investments
Approved Investments The most popular qualification route is the purchase of property valued at €500,000 (without a mortgage). The visa permits the holder to enter and exit Spain as and when they wish, without any requirement to spend a minimum period of time in Spain, as is typically the case with other residency visas issued in Spain. Other options include:
- A significant business investment that either involves meaningful job creation or is likely to have a significant socioeconomic impact in the area where the investment takes place or is an innovative business with technological or scientific impact
- €2 million on Spanish Treasury bonds
- €1 million on Spanish company shares
- €1 million in investment funds
- €1 million in bank deposits in Spanish financial institutions

Benefits
- Expedited Process (much simpler than other visa application processes)
- Goldent Visa holder may leave and return to Spain as often as they wish without restriction
- This visa confers a right to both live and work in Spain
- Longer residency approved initially with less renewal requirements

Potential Issues
Unfortunately, it is common to see applications fail because the applicant failed to provide the detailed information that the local authorities demand to receive before granting approval.
This can of course be avoided by contracting an experienced immigration lawyer to manage the process on your behalf.
