Here’s how others did it

Clear guidance, from first question to final step

James
James Senior QA Engineer
February 17, 2026 – submission March 13, 2026 – approval
James, a Senior QA Engineer based in London, wanted to relocate to Spain. Since he operates as an IE, the strategy was standard. The main challenge for British freelancers is transitioning from the British tax system to the Spanish one. That's why he first consulted with our tax specialist to rule out any risks. Next, we helped him collect the necessary documents, James flew to Spain, and we submitted his application. The response came quickly: within 18 business days, he received approval.
Anna
Anna Web Designer
March 2, 2026 – submission March 25, 2026 – approval
Anna wanted to relocate to Spain to be in the same time zone with her European clients. The primary task was coordinating documentation from both the USA and her new European counterparties. We assisted her in collecting all the necessary documents to meet Spanish requirements. Anna flew to Spain and we submitted her application. She received her approval in just 17 business days.
Louisa
Louisa Software Developer
February 20, 2026 – submission March 9, 2026 – approval
Louisa and her partner Anna wanted to move to Barcelona. Since they weren't officially married, the first step was to register as a civil partnership (pareja de hecho) upon arrival in Spain. Once they did it, we submitted their documents. The approval came in 16 business days without any additional requests.
Matthew
Matthew Marketing Team Lead
February 5, 2026 – submission February 27, 2026 – additional request March 11, 2026 – approval - 24
Matthew manages two marketing projects simultaneously as a Team Lead, he planned the transition into freelance work in Europe once his current agreement ended. Due to his intense workload, he had no time for bureaucracy and trusted us to manage the paperwork and coordination. During the review, the authorities requested a more recent confirmation letter from one of his contractors. We quickly coordinated with the client to get an updated document, and Matthew was approved shortly after.

Talk to us on WhatsApp →
Will a lawyer review my case?

Yes. Our lawyer reviews your documents at every stage and before the application is submitted. You receive feedback, so you can be confident the case has been prepared correctly. The exact level of ongoing support depends on your plan.

What income do I need?

The main applicant generally needs at least 200% of Spain’s minimum wage (SMI). As of March 2026 that means €2,849 per month for a single applicant, €3,918 for a family of two and €4,274 for a family of three, plus €357 for each additional family member. If a single salary is not enough, several contracts or savings can be used.

Can my family apply with me?

Yes. Your partner, children under 25 and parents over 65 can apply with you. Unmarried couples can apply after registering a “pareja de hecho” (civil partnership) in Spain. Parents and adult children can be included where financial dependency is demonstrated, and each family member increases the income threshold.

Can I work with Spanish clients?

If you are employed by a foreign company, your clients must be outside Spain. If you are self-employed, up to 20% of your professional income may come from Spanish clients.

How long does the process take?

Our own cases average 17 working days for the authority’s review, but preparation time and official processing vary. Only the Spanish authorities make the final decision.

Do I need to live in Spain for 183 days a year to renew?

No. Renewal of the Digital Nomad permit does not require a minimum stay in Spain. You do, however, have to meet your tax and social-security obligations, which is why post-approval consulting is part of our support.

Does the permit lead to permanent residency?

Yes. After five years of legal residency in Spain you can apply for permanent residency.

Will I be taxed in both Spain and the UK or the USA?

Spain has double taxation treaties with both the UK and the USA, so you generally will not pay tax twice on the same income. Many applicants also benefit from Spain’s Beckham Law flat rate. Your specific situation is best discussed during the tax consultation.

Will my criminal record be checked?

Yes. Criminal-record certificates and other supporting documents are reviewed as part of the full application. The required countries and time period depend on your residence history.

Are government fees included?

No. Official residence, TIE and consular fees are paid separately to the relevant authorities. Translation and additional-service coverage depends on the selected plan.

How does the money-back guarantee work?

If your application is refused after you follow the agreed Spain Bridge process, the Spain Bridge service fee is refundable under the eligibility and documentary conditions set out in your service agreement. Government fees and third-party costs are not covered.
