Are you eligible for residency via a Spanish Golden Visa?

In order to obtain a Spanish Residency permit by means of the Spanish Golden Visa scheme, you must be using at least €500,000 of your own funds for your investment to start with, however, above that threshold there is no limit to debt financing, for instance with a mortgage in Spain.

It is important to keep in mind that, in order to apply for the Spanish Golden Visa, the total amount of funds needed will rise approximately another 13% in taxes and legal fees, in order to be able to make the investment.

Alternatives to acquiring property are:

  • Buying Stock shares of a Spanish Company; in this case the amount rises to 1.000.000€ or more
  • Depositing 1.000.000€ or more in a Spanish financial company
  • Acquiring Spanish Treasury Bonds worth 2.000.000€ or more
  • Investing in business projects if you can prove that the business will have a positive effect in job creation, or make a social or economic impact, or represents a significant contribution to scientific and/or technological innovation
