How to get a work permit in Spain

Highly Qualified Worker Visa:

For non-EU citizens offered managerial or high-paying positions in Spain, the highly qualified worker visa is ideal.

Family Reunification:

If you’re an EU or non-EU citizen related to an EU citizen residing in Spain, you can apply for a residence and work authorization.

Regular Work Permit:

If you’ve found a suitable job offer in Spain and consider the national unemployment situation, apply for a regular work permit.

Regular Work Permit: (por cuenta ajena)

To obtain a regular work permit as an employee in Spain, you must be outside the country and have your employer initiate the application process. Only specific job positions, aligned with Spain’s unemployment situation, qualify for this permit.

Self-Employed Work Permit: (por cuenta proprio)

If your entrepreneurial venture doesn’t qualify for the entrepreneur visa, consider the regular work permit for self employed individuals. Prepare a detailed business plan and ensure you meet the educational and financial requirements.
