Spain is one of the top spots for digital nomads. This beautiful country offers everything that you would want: great weather, beautiful beaches, vibrant cities, rich history... and unfortunately also high taxes!
Lots of our clients would love to live in Spain, and many prefer it over Portugal (which is one of our top destinations too), however, high taxes is what's putting them off from relocating to Spain.
But worry not! Spain has recently launched their Digital Nomad visa Program, and now you have the ability to live in Spain and pay low tax. Sounds exciting, doesn't it?
This program offers one year visa, that's extendable for up to 5 years.
In order to qualify you will need to make 2100 euros or more per month
You will need to have your own medical insurance
You can't be resident of Spain for the last 5 years
You need to be employed or self employed by foreign company
If you have any Spanish income it can not exceed 20% of your total income
You will need to have a clean criminal record, and provide the proof of it
Also, this program is only for non EU citizens
When it comes to taxes, if you relocate to Spain under this regime you will be treated as a non resident and your taxes will be 15%
Who are we and what do we do?
We are Offshore Citizen team. We help people become global: get a second passport, set up a second residency, pay less taxes, do banking abroad, etc.
We have lots of interesting articles on different topics, we have relevant information up to date.

There is a wealth tax in spain that makes spain a tax hell. On top of that, if you spend more than 183 days in spain, you become tax resident. Spain is by far the worst tax country for digital nomad, that's why there is no digital nomad in spain.

Love your content, my wife and I soak up all the episodes. We are based in South Africa and produce online royalty videos that sell in the US. Could you possibly do an episode (or recommend an older one) that covers small businesses that employ people on a non permanent basis but where the income comes from an offshore entity, though locally produced. It seems it doesn't fall under the same category as a 'digital nomad' and I'm just trying the get my head around the legal ramifications. Thank you. Also a small tip for your vids if you want a more cinematic look, you need to make the f-stop of your lense close to F2. The bokeh that comes from that will add another dimension to the shot. The lighting is already great especially with that natural beam falling down the staircase.

Then 50% discount on tax for the first year ... awesome. Also crypto taxation is possibly an important aspect for a nomad. In portugal the crypto taxes are now still veeeery attractive in 2023. Now I am searching for alternative for this as my year of social contributions exemption will be gone :D

Can someone explain the requirement under Spanish law pertaining to the digital nomad visa in regard to the social security certificate? I work remotely for a US-based company. I had a free consultation with an attorney in Spain. They informed me that my employer has to register with the social security offices in Spain and that the US Social Security office has to provide a certificate to the SS office in Spain. Does that sound correct? This information is mostly omitted from other videos or information I have seen online. Any clarification is appreciated.

Hi Michael from Alberta, Canada. l like the way you explain things in a concise manner. My question is would I need to have a business outside of Spain, as I trade markets through a broker individually. And if money were no object, would you still prefer Spain over Portugal?

@OffshoreCitizen Жыл бұрын

The lifestyle in Spain is more to my style but that's a completely personal preference I've got good friends who prefer the opposite. Regarding the other question depends somewhat if you're referring to active trading or investing and under which regime. If it can be treated under a foreign income regime and it's not active trading no company would be necessary in fact it's often preferable not to have a company that's for example the case with the Beckham law.

Thanks in advance :)

Very interesting and an awesome place to be! To me, Cyprus seems to be still nicer with 12,5% corporate tax + most of the private expenses deductible, and no income, or capital gains tax for 17 years. You only need to be in the country for 2 months a year. Compared to Spain, the most notable difference I think is that Cyprus is quite small. A very nice community here, but nothing to compare with vibrant Spanish cities, of course, if you're in for the action :-) PS: Also some things with the Cyprus LTDs directly can be a bit cumbersome since even though the reputation got much better, some businesses do still not like it. (Not often, but if, it is annoying). That will likely be something else in Spain. But since I understand it, the company has to be located outside of Spain anyway.

We are starting to look at options to lessen our tax and Cyprus is top of the list. You sound like you know what you are talking about in Cyprus? We currently have a UK LTD company, me and my gf are 50/50 directors. Is it just a case that we move to Cyprus and pay ourselves from the UK LTD to make use of the zero personal tax or do we have to open a Cyprus LTD and pay from there? And what visa should we be looking at?

Will I get tax advantages? I am unsure of the double tax treaty between UK and Spain. At the moment I pay myself mainly dividends. However, If I took my income 100% as salary, would I pay 24% tax only, or because the source of income is UK, will I also owe tax in UK? What would be the most tax efficient option for UK Ltd director / shareholder? Thanks!

Guys don't be fooled by them. I am French (half of Spanish origin) therefore UE citizen therefore it's not applicable to my case, but even if I was from a non EU country, it would not be interesting. Mainland spain is tax wise utterly horrendous as is my home country. If you want to live in spain for the weather, the people, the nightlife, and slightly the cost of living / renting. Why not! However, I wouldn't recommend Spain for tax optimization.

The digital Nomad Visa is a one-year residency permit in Spain, potentially extendable up to five years, for non-EU citizens who earn at least 2100 Euros per month and have a history of that income, medical insurance, and no Spanish residency in the last 5 years. The permit holder must be employed by a foreign company and only 20% of the company's income can come from Spain. There is also a requirement for a criminal record check. The permit allows access to the Schengen Zone. The requirements may change as the program evolves.

AFAIK this special regime is not effective for digital nomads yet.

I like to watch your contents but I can only understand initial portions of your sentences as you tend to mumble and lower your voice whenever you're wrapping up the sentences. You have an International audience so please enunciate "every single word" and make the pace and volume consistent throughout. Great example of speaker is "Traveling with Kristin". I hope we can see you enunciate all the words next time as you have interesting topics. Thank you

You really need to stop saying that access to one schenge country gives access to them all. This is simply not true. Even if you are a citizen of a schengen country you have to report your stay after 3 months and you can't change your reason for staying that easily. If you ain't a schengen country citizen and just have the right to stay in a schengen country you have no rights what so ever in other schengen countries. You can probably get away with it in some cases. But it is illegal. If your aim is to avoid taxes by breaking the law, why not just stay in your home country?

To be fair, he never says this access leads to freedom of movement. It's just the common travel area that you're free to visit, not to reside in. Also you don't have to be citizen of a Schengen country to move to one, that's a benefit of EU citizenship (+EEA). Funny how the Brits used to misunderstand that they benefited from that EU citizenship and not their naturally assumed Empire passport suprrmacy.

I don’t get the logic with Spanish regulations. They want you to come spend money contribute to their economy pay them taxes and get no benefits. On top of that they treat you horribly at all levels. Their bureaucracy is from the worst I have seen. Other countries at least give you health insurance and other benefits. Doesn’t sound like a good deal.
