The Spanish Property Golden Visa
(or "Property Visa") grants automatic residency in Spain when you purchase property for 500,000€ or more. This can be any type of property: home, commercial, land, or a combination of properties. As opposed to the wealth visa, the golden visa does not require you to be in Spain 183 days of the year.
The steps to getting a golden visa:
- You come to Spain with your travel visa and look for a property.
- Once the pre-agreement (contrato de arras) is signed and corresponding funds are deposited, you can apply for the golden visa. If needed, the authorities can grant you a permit for six months so you can complete the process of buying your property.
- If your golden visa application is accepted, you will receive a visa for one year. As opposed to other visas, the golden visa application can be presented while you are in Spain.
- After receiving your golden visa, you can keep renewing the visa, as long as you do not sell your property.
