Which Spanish Visa Is Right for You?

Answer a few questions about your income, work situation, and plans — and we'll match you with the Spanish visas that fit your situation.

Spain offers several visa pathways for expats, from the Non-Lucrative Visa (NLV) for retirees to the Digital Nomad Visa (DNV) for remote workers. Each visa has different income requirements, work restrictions, tax implications, and paths to permanent residency — making it difficult to know which one fits your situation.

This comparison tool evaluates your answers across seven key factors — income source, income level, work needs, tax priorities, education, study plans, and family situation — then matches you against five major Spanish visa categories. Results are grouped into tiers: Strong Match, Worth Considering, and Possible, with visas you're not eligible for clearly explained.

About This Tool

Our Visa Comparison Tool covers five Spanish visa categories: the Non-Lucrative Visa (NLV), Digital Nomad Visa (DNV), Entrepreneur Visa, Work Visa (Cuenta Ajena), and Student Visa. Each visa is evaluated using a two-phase scoring system — first checking hard requirements like income thresholds and employment status, then scoring soft preferences like tax efficiency, work flexibility, and family-friendliness.

The tool takes about two minutes to complete and doesn't require any personal information. Your answers are processed entirely in your browser — nothing is sent to a server. Results link directly to our detailed visa guides with application steps, required documents, and insider tips.
