How to Get a Work Permit in Spain
Information on how non-EU citizens can apply for different work permits for a Spanish company.
What is a residence and work permit in Spain?
A residence and work permit is a document that allows you to relocate to Spain and work for a Spanish company.
There are two main work permits that you may be eligible for:
- Highly-Qualified Residence Permit
- Regular Work Permit
Highly-Qualified Residence Permit:
This residence and work permit is for those working in roles that require higher or university education. These are typically jobs that are strategically important to the Spanish economy. The applicant must have a minimum level of expertise to qualify for this permit.
Regular Work Permit:
These permits require the employer to prove that no one else in Spain can fill a job vacancy that they are advertising for. The position must be submitted to the public employment services for approval.
As the process is unique to each job opening, the process to obtain this Work Permit is different in most situations.
Both of these work and residence permits are initially approved for one year.
How do I get a Work Permit for Spain?
For both processes, the employer must submit the work permit application so that the employee can travel to Spain to work for them.
The application can be filed online and takes 20 days for the highly-qualified. It takes up to 90 months for normal work permits.
Once the work permit is approved, the employee can visit the consulate at their place of residence and apply for a residence visa to enter Spain.
The application for the highly qualified residence permit can also be processed directly online while visiting Spain as a tourist. Therefore, you don’t need to apply for a Spanish entry visa. You can also apply for the Foreigner Identity Card, or TIE, directly.
Who is eligible?
All non-EU citizens who have a job offer to work in Spain. You must have a legitimate offer of employment from a company.
What is the difference between highly professional and work permit?
The residence requirement for highly qualified personnel is focused on jobs that require a certain amount of work experience or higher education in the sector or that are of strategic interest for the Spanish economy.
In addition, salaries must meet a minimum amount in line with the required expertise.
What's the Process of Getting the Residence and Work visa
1. Have an employer
You must have an employer willing to employ you. This is mandatory
2. Local market test
For a regular work permit, your employer must publish a job advert for the position. They must then get a certificate from the administration stating that there are no adequate candidates already in Spain. This step isn’t needed for the Highly-Qualified Residence permit or if you are a Peruvian or Chilean citizen.
3. Apply for the Permit
Your employer has to apply for the work permit with the Spanish administration. This application can be submitted electronically.
4. Get an Entry Visa
As soon as the work permit is issued, the employee has to apply at their local Embassy or Consulate for a Spanish entry visa. If the person is already in Spain and applying for a Highly-Qualified Professional residence permit, they can avoid this step.
5. Register with Social Security
Once you have entered Spain, you must be registered with Social Security to obtain access to healthcare and other services.
6. Apply for Foreign ID Card
Finally, you must for the foreign ID card in order to perform administrative tasks like getting a phone contract.
How do I Renew the Spanish Work Permit?
To renew the permit, the employee must show that they continue to work for the same company. The business must also show that they have made the correct social security contributions.
The work permit is renewed for two-year periods.
If the employee is dismissed but have worked for a specific amount of time, they may keep their work permit if they meet certain requirements. The team at Lexidy LegalTech Boutique can help in these scenarios.
What Documents do I Need?
Each application must contain the following paperwork:
Employment Contract
This document must contain the salary, working hours, a collective bargaining agreement and the worker’s main functions. It must also contain a specific clause whereby the contract will not come into effect until the residence permit is approved.
Criminal Records Certificate
This must be obtained from the country or countries where the worker previously resided in the past five years. It must be legalized or translated.
Corporate Documents
Some documents concerning the corporate entity and form of government must be obtained. Documents concerning the economic solvency of the company may be requested.
Employee Qualifications and Career
The employee must show that they have the knowledge and experience to perform the job.
Work permit applications are highly likely to require other papwerwork such as a job description or job report. Specifics vary on a case-by-case basis.

Amazing service from Alejandro initially and then Juan. We were intending to purchase a property in Barcelona and Juan conducted all of the checks to ensure the deal was legitimate - it turned out that it was not as straight forward a transaction as initially expected and Juan helped us to avoid a potential financial disaster. We are so grateful and have 100% confidence in Lexidy's professionalism . We will certainly be using them more in the future and highly recommend them!

My wife, 2 children, and I wanted to move to Spain on a non-lucrative visa to experience something new following a stressful covid period. I had the privilege of working with Max and Gabriela, who were outstanding: Fluent English, nurturing us the whole way from initial sales contact through to landing in Spain, refreshingly responsive (usually within minutes, unlike many legal firms which work in units of days!), deeply knowledgable (added so much more value beyond paperwork), professional, experienced, and couldn't do enough for us. Top marks -- and that's from a customer with high expectations! Thank you for the quality experience and for helping us realise our dreams 🙂

We contacted Lexidy Law boutique when we recently moved from Cyprus to open a new chapter in our lives to move into a house in Brittany that we had bought 12 years previously. We had underestimated the twists and turns involved in obtaining residency in France - so we contacted Lexidy Law Boutique and were assigned Eleonore, an immigration lawyer well acquainted with French immigration laws. From the very beginning we realised she was determined that we should have a successful outcome and she guided us expertly to avoid all the pitfalls in the process of applying for residency. She even accompanied us to the prefecture and ensured that everything went smoothly - without her presence we might well have not succeeded.We thank and highly recommend Eleonore and Lexidy Law Boutique.

We have just completed the purchase of a new build apartment in Catalunya. Lexidy were recommended to me by a colleague who'd relocated from the US to the Costa Brava. As non Spanish/Catalan speakers, it was a great relief to have people we could trust working on all aspects of the purchase - including arranging a bank account, NIE's and the wifi..! From the initial meeting over Zoom to the final transaction Carlota and Antonia provided first class service and communication. And by providing them with Power of Attorney it meant we could do most of the things we needed to do without leaving the UK.

Amazing experience! Mónica Isern López for immigration and residency, her communication was excellent, she responded to every email in a timely manner, spoke to me on the phone whenever I requested, and provided extremely clear instructions. I was very impressed that if Monica was out of office, someone else would respond that had knowledge of my specific situation.The information she provided was always accurate and she followed through with every document and appointment laid out in the contract. If I had a question, she found the answer and provided supporting documentation. Even though it was a long process due to the pandemic, I felt confident with her help and received a favorable resolution without any issues.

We recently retained the services of Lexidy Law Boutique to file our non-resident tax returns. As US citizens who own property in Lloret de Mar, Spain we were unfamiliar with the complexities of the Spanish tax system. Fortunately, we were able to benefit from the considerable expertise of Jose Garcia, Head of the Tax Department at Lexidy. He explained the procedure in detail to us and was extremely diligence and thorough throughout the whole process. What could have been a challenging situation for us became a very smooth process because of the expertise and capabilities of Jose Garcia and his staff at Lexidy Law Boutique. I would highly recommend the services of Lexidy Law Boutique.

You helped me so much and made what would have been a stressful application a pleasure.Additionally, her colleague Maximiliano was very helpful during the process.Highly recommend Lexidy and their professional team and will be using them again in the future.

Lexidy guided us through the purchase of an apartment in Barcelona. It was quite complicated; we were in New York and because of the pandemic had to do everything remotely. This would have been impossible without the sound advice--in English!--and help of various lawyer at Lexidy, particularly Alejandro Cano. They even inspected the apartment because we couldn't see it in person and arranged for us to open a bank account. Since Lexidy is the only law firm i Barcelona we've worked with, I can;t compare them to others there but working with them was certainly easier than dealing with U.S. law firms. Highly recommended!

The best service you could get with a law firm. In my personal experience, Alejandro is very helpful and efficient, he could explain to you cristal clear terms with the process of an acquisition for a foreigner. I highly recommend them as your attorney on your behalf.是我经历过的最好的服务，作为法律供应商。亚历山大非常好，他很有效率，英语也很好。如果你作为外国人去西班牙投资，一个快速回应，英语很好，对购买过程熟悉的合作伙伴必不可少。非常推荐他们！当然，我最初也是朋友推荐过去的，服务超出想象的好。

I would like to highly recommend Lexidy Law Boutique to all those in need of immigration consulting and assistance.Figuring out the legal basis, requirements and rights and/or limitations coming out from a particular type of residence permit is definitively a non trivial thing to do.Things will for sure be more complicated if you need to consider your closest family members.And adding the language barrier (as we are not really fluent with the Spanish language) certainly makes things even more difficult.Thanks to Lexidy and Monica, during all of those complexities, we felt secure and we were sure that we have top professionals on our side.What sticks out as amazing to me, and at the sime time is I think instructive as what a professional behavior can be defined like, is how Monica:a. interpreted and explained all legal complexities in a way to make it understandable for usb. helped to practically go through the complicated residence application preparation with unbelievable accuracy - not one single document had to be edited/corrected and/or printed out for a second timec. answered hundred (literally, or more) of emails, with average delay of merely 1-2 hoursd. coordinated third parties on our behalf (services from official translators, embassy appointments etc.)At all times, no surprises, no new plans, just one steady, easily predictable and stress free process.No doubt - top service!Thank you Monica!!

I arrived in Madrid on the last week of June 2021. Two weeks later I already had the NIE for my family and my own, and was already signed in in Madrid Municipality. I strongly recommend Lexidy for their professional work, Specially David Planes, who followed my case before and after arrival.

Alejandro was personal, attentive, and responsive while assisting me in obtaining my NIE in Spain. Overall - the process took less than two working days - weeks shorter than I was quoted by other firms. Alejandro has also been helpful in introducing me to others from the Lexidy office who have assisted in answers related to immigration and taxes. I will recommend Lexidy to others and look forward to working more with them moving forward.

I have over 20 years of experience working with tax and law professionals in New York, Boston, Zurich, Barcelona and Tokyo. Jose Garcia from Lexidy Law Boutique, was hands down the best tax attorney I’ve ever worked with! Jose is extremely knowledgeable and proactive with impeccable attention to detail, succinct and clear communication, and an honest and professional approach. I’m very happy I found him and I highly recommend him and his team to anyone looking for a highly skilled, no hassle tax attorney at a reasonable rate.

We recently worked with Lexidy Law to gain non lucrative visas for Spain. The guidance and support received was exceptional. We worked with Paralegal David Planes Vilar who answered all our questions and advised us on all documentation needed. He was fantastic to work with! He has also kindly offered to support any questions we have on the final steps of the Visa once we arrive in Madrid.We also reached out to Lexidy's tax department for guidance on tax planning for our year abroad. Jose García, head of the tax department, was very helpful and answered all our initial questions. We would highly recommend any of their services as we've received excellent support! Thank you Lexidy for all your help during this big move!

One thing I really appreciated was Laura’s quick reply with every question or concern we had and her making sure we had all the info we needed in a timely fashion. It was not easy doing this process during Covid but in the end it was successful. We will be working with her in the future for any immigration help we might need. Thank you to Laura & her staff.

My experience consulting with Lexidy Law Boutique has been very pleasant. They are professional, helpful, their customer service is excellent, and their prompt responses are impressive. I personally dealt with David, Monica, and Jose for visa assistance and they have been above and beyond. I'm truly appreciative because dealing with my process alone was challenging and as soon as I began consulting with them, it helped facilitate it greatly. Thank you Lexidy Law Boutique.***Updated on 5/17/2021***Lexidy Law Boutique exceeded my expectation once again. They are very consistent when providing excellent customer service. They are also experts in their area of specialty. I was dealing with an unexpected litigation matter and worked with Diego Mendizabal for guidance. He helped me immediately, was very knowledgeable, and was able to provide valuable guidance to help me make an informed decision regarding what solutions I wanted to pursue. Also, his response time to your emails and calls are very impressively quick. The entire interaction with Diego was great and stress-free. Thank you Diego.

I used Lexidy to assist with obtaining a residency visa in Spain. From the start they were extremely helpful and professional. They could not have made it easier for me and it really took the stress out of the process. Even with the hurdles of the current COVID-19 pandemic, and having to travel across various parts of the world, Mònica and the staff at Lexidy were always there when I needed anything and to reassure me that there would be no problems along the way. Every appointment I had to go to, all the documents were prepared in advance an the instructions were clear. I could not recommend them highly enough if you need assistance with any immigration issues in Spain. If I ever need any legal assistance in future, I would only use Lexidy!

The team has been brilliant, if I ever have an issue or need know something, they will be patient and responsive (very quick) with accurate and useful information.

I have dealt with many law firms throughout the course of my life. And I have to say, hands down, the most professional, the most accommodating law firm I have worked with has been Lexidy. It is rare to find law firms that go above the line of duty or offer services beyond the scope of an agreement. Lexidy, however demonstrated that over and over again even in the tough challenging climate of 2020. I was very fortunate to be put in contact with Monica Lopez who, really was not only a consummate professional but was also extremely supportive and knowledgeable of all facets of my case. She offered advice and support on many issues that were out of the scope of our agreement and for that I am not only grateful but very pleased with the support extended by Monica and Lexidy. If you are looking for a reliable, informed, considerate and professional law firm for any legal advice, then I would highly recommend Lexidy.

I cannot rate their professional and rapid responses highly enough. Prior to receiving advice from Lexidy, I had received conflicting advice from about 5 other lawyers. I was so confused and felt they just wanted money without any clear guidance. I seemed to know more than them! Initially, Jose gave me some tax advice and forwarded my details to David Planes Vilar regarding my residency queries prior and post Brexit. His answers have been clear and unambiguous and he has had tremendous patience with me! Moreover, his advice has been honest in that he has been clear when and what it is worth me taking action to do, or not, on the basis that I will come back to them when I need to before and after the Brexit deadline. I definitely will! I don't trust any of the others out there! Don't look around! Use these guys!

El servicio de este estudio de abogados es realmente genial, me comunique con ellos desde América y me han asesorado durante meses sin pedirme realmente un pago temprano antes de ver si era viable la consulta (a diferencia de otros estudios) sumado que son muy cálidos y saben de verdad lo que hacen.Siendo yo abogado tambien, conozco el rubro y me parece excelente que trabajen de la misma manera que lo hago yo, poniendo al cliente primero.Todo el asesoramiento lo recibí durante la situación de COVID-19 y estamos por cerrar pronto la gestión con ellos.Mayormente estuve hablando con Maximiliano tanto por mail como por teléfono y en general son super recomendables, sin duda volvería a a trabajar con ellos.

Lexidy made my relocation from Vietnam to Ibiza, Spain smooth and easy!With proper guidelines provided I was able to get long-term visas for me and my family (my wife, my kid and my newborn). I am very happy and grateful to have them as my legal service. The clear communication and readiness from Max and David are very helpful to foreigners with no knowledge in Spanish like me. I can't say enough thanks for this amazing experience. Thumbs up!

I feel compelled to write this review after my correspondence with the team at Lexidy Law Boutique. This is certainly a law firm with a difference which is devoted to its clients. They attended to all my needs and queries with utmost diligence and professionalism. A truly outstanding and accommodating team that would go out of its way to help its clients. They did more than just exceed my expectations. They have set up a service standard that I am afraid other firms may not be able to match! They have become my go-to legal advisors. My case was fraught with complications and they patiently unraveled those until I had clarity and peace of mind. They are a firm with a heart that I am deeply thankful to.

I have been so impressed with every contact I have had at Lexidy. Every contact has been polite, responsive, and - most importantly - they have given me very good advice, which I seemed unable to extract from other law firms or professionals. As a UK citizen residing in Spain, I am sure there will be numerous occasions that I shall be calling on Lexidy services in the future - and I shall have no hesitation in doing so thanks to their efficiency and helpfulness. Thank you Lexidy team.

The team at Lexidy did a wonderful job helping obtain my visa to live and work in Spain. My case was unusual and at every step of the way, the Lexidy team were very communicative and thorough in their approach.

I'm so glad I found this law firm! I spoke with multiple law firms to determine who to go with and they were the fastest at responding and handled my non lucrative visa for Spain from Canada with incredible speed and professionalism. Once I received it, they also followed up and helped with my documents once I reached Spain. Fantastic experience, they are always going above and beyond and I highly recommend them! Thank you Max, David and the team!
