This can be followed by a five-year visa, providing their passport has sufficient validity.

A year after Spain launched a special digital nomad visa to encourage foreign business talent to move to the country, it has met with muted success. Some 300 foreign nationals were granted the visa up until 31 December 2023, the Spanish Foreign Ministry said, but it did not disclose their nationalities.

Some said it was hard to fulfil all the visa’s demands like proving they pay social security in their own country. Others complained of the endless paperwork invo...
