Featured guideHoliday guides Spain's Non-Lucrative Visa from the UK: Money, Documents, Fees and Arrival
Spain's non-lucrative visa (NLV) lets people from outside the EU, the EEA and Switzerland, British citizens included, live in Spain without working for a first year that can be renewed. You need health cover and €2,400 a month in income or savings (€28,800 for the year), plus €600 a month for each family member. UK residents apply in person at a BLS International centre for the Spanish consulate in London, Manchester or Edinburgh, and British citizens pay a £516 visa fee. HelloRoam Team
