Get Spanish Residency

If you are a citizen of the European Union, or of the Member States of the Agreement on the European Economic Area (Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) or Switzerland and intend to reside in Spain for a period of more than three months, you must request the Certificate of Registration.

The family of a citizen of the above countries, who do not hold the nationality of one of those States and reside in Spain for a period longer than three months, must request and obtain a Citizen’s Family Citizen Card.

After a period of 5 years, citizens of the Union and their families will be entitled to reside permanently if they meet certain requirements and must apply for a Certificate of Permanent Residence or Permanent Residence Card for Family Members of the Union.

The paperwork requirements for a residency application differs depending on whether you are an employee in Spain, setting up as a self-employed basis, a student, a retired person on a pension, or are a non-worker wanting to reside in Spain.
