Residence for Family Members of Spanish Citizens

If you are a non-EU family member of a Spanish citizen, you may qualify for the specific residence authorisation for family members of Spanish nationals. This is generally a five-year authorisation that permits both employment and self-employment in Spain, provided you meet the requirements for your particular family relationship.

Arraigo Familiar is a different procedure, available only in specific cases involving family members of citizens of another EU or EEA country or Switzerland. We will assess your circumstances to identify the correct application route.

Cannot recommend Nodisea highly enough for any immigration requirements. Francisco was a pleasure to deal with regarding the submission of our initial residency permit. He was extremely responsive throughout the entire process and went above and beyond all of our expectations providing sound advice and guidance

100% recommended. I processed my digital nomad residency with Javier, and his attention to detail was incredible every step of the way. Kept up to date with the latest trends in CGU requirements, anticipating and including them in my dossier. Thanks to their work, my residency was approved in just 9 business days (i.e. two weeks). Without a doubt, it is very worth hiring their services.

I highly recommend Francisco as immigration lawyer. We got the visa after 30 days of submission. We are so happy! Francisco is very structured and competent. He offered very clear consultation from the very beginning. We were informed very clearly what documents were needed and in what format- this detail level really helped with the preparation, as it can be a big headache to navigate the Spanish system. Moving to Spain was a big decision, and having Francisco to guide us through with empathy and patience eased the nerve. Thank you for the service, Francisco and team! We are grateful.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Nodisea Immigration Lawyers to obtain my Digital Nomad Visa, and they were amazing! From the beginning, the team was very patient and understanding, making the whole process much easier. Nodisea made a complicated process feel simple and easy to follow.

They guided me through every step and explained everything clearly. The lawyer I worked with was super careful with my documents, making sure all the information was correct. This really made me feel confident about my application.

I also appreciated how professional and quick they were to respond to my questions. Because of their hard work, I got my visa approval in just 15 business days!

If you need help with immigration, I highly recommend Nodisea. They truly made a big difference in my experience!

Francisco was incredibly helpful and made my application so smooth and stress free. Having had multiple consultations with various different immigration lawyers, I came across Francisco and was really impressed with the service and ultimately led to a successful application with zero issues. I could not recommend Francisco highly enough. Thank you!
Excellent immigration advisors. They helped me and my partner obtain Digital Nomad residency in Spain. Throughout the entire process Francisco was very attentive and diligent.

Super happy with the results, 100% recommended.
The team is super good, they guide you through everything and are also super friendly, I recommend them 100%
I consulted with Nodisea regarding my digital nomad visa application. It has been a fabulous experience working with the team specially Francisco. He filed my application and has always been very proactive in communicating the updates and also helped me get the positive resolution based on administrative silence.

Also Dahianna assisted me in getting my application prepared for TIE appointment on a very short notice. I highly recommend the team for your immigration processes.

Francisco with Nodisea was extremely helpful in guiding us through the immigration process. We truly wouldn’t have been able to do it without his help! Francisco was able to work directly with my company to obtain a work permit and help facilitate the process all the way up until we arrive to Spain. He answered all of our questions along the way, including my husband’s visa requirements as well. We can’t recommend Nodisea enough!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Nodisea Immigration Lawyers! In less than 30 days, my Digital Nomad residence was approved, and shortly after, my husband and son also received their approvals. If you follow the step-by-step guidance they provide, your case will likely be just as successful!

A special thanks to Francisco, who took over our case with such professionalism and care, and to Dahiana, who was always ready to assist even before we became clients. Her attention to detail and dedication made the entire process so much smoother.

As a Digital Nomad family, our dream of moving from the USA to Spain became a reality, and it was made so much easier with the help of the amazing team at Nodisea. We appreciate all of you—thank you so much! 🙏🏽

I am so grateful to have come across Francisco (Nodisea) at the time when me and my family’s renewal visa application got rejected. I was not at all clear of the future roadmap and at that time, Francisco stepped in.
As a foreigner, immigration rules can be very confusing and daunting. Francisco provided very valuable inputs at the time of consultation and made things seem so easy. He was very thorough and explained everything very nicely. One thing which makes him stand out is that he will not try to reel you in with money motive. So many immigration lawyers appear to be just money minting. Francisco is definitely my advisor for all future immigration related needs. He is a Stellar and I would definitely recommend him to everyone out there who are looking to hire a reliable and competent immigration lawyer.

Thank you to the team at Nodisea, especially Francisco and Dahianna. We are from Canada and applied in Spain for our Digital Nomad Visa. Our application was submitted May 31, and we received approval June 26; there was only one clarification, for sworn translation of the relevant documents. That is approximately 18 business days.

I highly recommend this team as they have a very structured process for collaboration via Drive, email, and WhatsApp. They maintained organization throughout the process but were also readily available for questions and clarifications. This structure and organization gave us confidence and I believe contributed to the timely resolution of our application.

This collaboration and availability also helped us work through several potential issues such as differences with incorporation documents from Canada, the introduction of the apostille process in Canada, and getting certain documents apostilled at the Embassy in Madrid.

Working with Francisco is hands down the best decision I’ve made since coming to Spain. He’s taken one of the most complicated visa situations I’ve ever experienced and made every step clear and actionable. He’s incredibly responsive to messages, always very clear in his awnser and provides honest and clear guidance. Every blog I read or other lawyer I spoke to got confusing and often contradictory awnsers, but speaking to Francisco was a breath of fresh air. From day 1 I knew what my options were and what I needed to do to pursue each path. If you’re looking for help with your Spanish visa – student, digital nomad or otherwise this is who you need to work with. 5 out of 5.

We have had the great pleasure of working with Francisco at Nodisea for the last month. He has been very helpful and responsive to all our questions through the process of obtaining our Spanish citizenship and passports. We are all so grateful, my sons and I, to have Francisco’s knowledge and guidance and would not hesitate to recommend him (and Nodisea) for others seeking the same journey.

I couldn’t recommend Nodisea enough! My experience renewing my Digital Nomad Visa (DNV) with Francisco and Dahianna has been nothing but positive. Today, I have received a favourable resolution for a 2-year DNV renewal which I, and multiple other lawyers I contacted, never thought would be possible in my situation! In this process, there have been no additional or hidden costs from Nodisea which I am very grateful for. Francisco has always replied to my emails within a matter of hours and has never made me feel like a burden with any questions I’ve had. He explained the process clearly from the outset, and I couldn’t be more grateful for his patience and proactiveness. Thank you thank you thank you!

We stumbled upon Francisco (Nodiesa) after being rejected for our first application attempt for the remote workers’ residency in Spain. And I have to say that we were very fortunate to make contact with him as he would later become our main and only advisor throughout our second application (which ended up being successful!).

We have only positive words about our experience. From the start, Francisco was professional but also friendly. He was always eager to assist and ready to dig for answers and provide clear, insightful guidance, showing a genuine concern for our progress and investing his time to help us navigate the complexities of the process.

Navigating the Spanish bureaucracy is very tough and patience-testing, especially for a foreigner, and each interaction with Francisco was both informative and reassuring, especially during challenging moments, which made the process immensely easier.

Even after we have successfully secured our residencies, we are grateful to have learned about Nodisea and look forward to maintaining our relationship with them and using their services during our residency, as they have proven to be a reliable and trustworthy source of support.

P.S. All the communication was in perfect English. 🙂

I recently had the pleasure of working with the team at Nodisea. As someone who is not fluent in Spanish, navigating the Spanish bureaucracy is a daunting task. However, the team at Nodisea, especially Dahianna, went above and beyond to take care of every aspect of the application. I really appreciated her thoroughness, professionalism and dedication to helping me through the process. She turned what could have been a stressful experience into an easy and straightforward one. I cannot recommend her services enough to anyone in need of legal assistance in Spain. A truly 5-star experience!

I have contracted two services with Nodisea and both times I have had a very good experience. First to rectify that my TIE erroneously stated that I could not work in Spain and later for a renewal of my residence permit. On both occasions they have been efficient and informed me of everything.👍

Learn more about our alternative payment method

What is the “Pay for Success” method?

A performance-based payment option: you only pay our fees if we obtain a favourable decision in your case. If your application is not approved, you pay nothing. At Nodisea we are confident in our knowledge and therefore offer our clients this form of fee payment.

How does it work? No upfront payment is required. We prepare and manage your whole application with the same care and resources as any standard case. In the event of a favourable decision, the final fee is 50% higher than our upfront structure, reflecting the risk we assume by working with no guaranteed compensation.

Why should you be interested in it?

We do not want clients to have to bear the burden of a negative decision. Therefore, we understand that it is necessary to provide them with tools to reduce their risks. We want to avoid situations in which the client pays the entire fee only to receive a dismissal decision in return.

The “Pay for Success” payment method therefore has a dual purpose:

  • That our immigration lawyers in Spain work tirelessly to obtain the best results.
  • That our clients have a guarantee.
What are the terms and conditions?

Nothing is paid at the beginning of the assignment. Our fees are paid only if a favourable decision is obtained and, in that case, they are 50% higher than under the payment in advance method. Administrative fees (tasas) are not included in either method. An example:

A customer contracts the processing of an international teleworker authorization (Digital Nomad Permit). Under the payment in advance method the procedure costs 850 € + VAT, paid at the start. Under “Pay for Success” the client pays nothing upfront and 1,275 € + VAT only if a favourable decision is obtained.
