If you are a non-EU citizen seeking a Spanish Residence Permit, and you are related to an EU citizen through marriage or a civil partnership (pareja de hecho), you can easily begin working and living in Spain as if you were a resident.

Obtaining a Spanish Visa through an EU resident is one of the simplest ways to legally reside in the country for an extended period of time, saving you from a lengthy list of requirements and cumbersome paperwork.

This process provides non-EU citizens, who are relatives of Spanish nationals or citizens of the European Union, with a residence and work permit that grants them the same rights as EU nationals. The specific relatives who are eligible for this residence permit include:

  • DIRECT RELATIVES: Civil partner or spouse (through marriage.)

  • DESCENDANTS: Children shared with the EU national or children from the civil partner.

  • ASCENDANTS: Parents of the EU national.

We can also assist you with all the legal processes required to register your civil partnership (“pareja de hecho”) in Spain!

How can we assist you in benefiting from obtaining your residence permit?

We will guide you through the entire process, from start to finish, until you have successfully obtained your residence permit

 We’ll take care of completing all the required paperwork and submitting it to the appropriate authority on your behalf.

We’ll handle all necessary translations into Spanish throughout the entire process, including both the initial application and any subsequent renewals.
