What this is
Spain's Digital Nomad Visa (DNV) is designed for people who work remotely for clients or employers outside Spain. It was introduced under the 2022 Startups Law.
We help you understand what to prepare, what to check, and when specialist advice may be needed: whether the DNV is worth investigating, what evidence you need, and how to organise your application.
This is route-awareness and document preparation support. It is not regulated immigration or tax advice, and it does not guarantee an official outcome.
What you receive
Written deliverable: Digital Nomad Visa route checklist in your written Move Plan
- DNV suitability screen (employee vs freelancer vs company-owner mapping)
- Employer/client evidence organiser (what letters, contracts, payslips, tax records)
- Social security and tax question flagging (when is A1 needed? When does tax residence shift?)
- UGE vs consulate route notes (depending on where you apply from)
- Spanish-client share check (for self-employed applicants, work for Spanish clients may be no more than 20% of total professional activity)
- Document checklist per applicant type
- Red flag screening (borderline cases, complex structures, prior refusals)
- Professional referral prompts where specialist advice is needed
- Covered in your written Move Plan, delivered by email
- 30 days of follow-up by WhatsApp or email after delivery
We may earn a fee if you use a partner we recommend. It never changes what you pay.
What is not included
We are clear about this because it protects you and it protects us.
- Legal advice on employment structures or company setups
- Tax advice on UK and Spain double taxation or social security coordination
- Guaranteeing visa approval
- Completing application forms for you
- In-person appointment accompaniment or live interpreting
- Negotiating with employers or clients on your behalf
Who this is for
- Remote employees with a UK or non-Spanish employer
- Freelancers and contractors whose clients are mainly outside Spain
- Company owners/directors who can show sufficient remote work structure
- People who understand the DNV requires ongoing compliance (tax, social security)
Who this is not for
- People whose work does not meet the remote-work definition
- Freelancers with more than a small share of work for Spanish clients (the rules limit it; we flag this)
- People who want this to be a simple "just fill in a form" route (it is not)
- People who have not yet discussed their plans with their employer (they should do this first)

Common questions
What counts as 'remote work' for the DNV?
The core requirement is that you work for clients or an employer outside Spain, using digital tools, and that the work can be done from anywhere. We help map your specific situation against this requirement.
Does my employer need to agree?
Yes. You need evidence from your employer confirming you can work remotely from Spain. This is the single most common obstacle. We assess what evidence you have and what you still need.
What's the social security situation?
Complex. Depending on your structure, you may need an A1 certificate from the UK, or you may need to register with Spanish social security. We flag the question but do not give social security advice: we refer to specialists.
Can I have Spanish clients too?
Possibly, within limits. For self-employed applicants, the published rule is that work for Spanish clients may be no more than 20% of your total professional activity. We help you set out your client mix so you can check it against the current requirement, and we flag when you should take professional advice. This is not legal advice.
