What is Spain’s digital nomad visa?

A residence visa (Ley 28/2022) for non-EU remote workers: employees of companies outside Spain, and freelancers whose Spanish clients stay under 20% of their work. It grants residence for up to three years initially and can lead to long-term residence.

How much do I need to earn for the digital nomad visa in 2026?

About €2,850 gross per month — €34,188 a year, which is 200% of the Spanish minimum wage. The test applies to your total stable remote income, not to any single job, and rises with each dependent family member.

Do the companies listed here sponsor visas?

No — that is the point. These roles fit a visa you apply for yourself. If you want employers who state visa or work-permit sponsorship for roles based in Spain, that is a different list: see the visa sponsorship jobs page.

Can I use the digital nomad visa to work for a Spanish company?

Not as an employee — the visa requires your employer to be outside Spain. Freelancers may bill Spanish clients only up to 20% of their activity. A job at a Spanish company needs ordinary work authorization instead.

What does my employer have to provide?

For employees: a letter authorizing remote work from Spain, proof the relationship is at least three months old and the company has operated for at least a year, and social-security coverage — a certificate of coverage where a bilateral agreement exists, or Spanish registration. Freelancers apply without employer paperwork.

How is this list built?

We keep remote roles whose stated hiring scope includes Spain as part of a wider region (EMEA, Europe, worldwide) at companies not founded in Spain. It is an indicative match on the job’s shape — always confirm with the employer that working from Spain is allowed for the role.

Indicative, not a promise: these adverts fit the shape of the route. Nothing here means the employer will sponsor a visa — confirm with them before you commit.

What it is

Every listing here is fully remote, at a company not founded in Spain, with a hiring scope that spans a region including Spain — EMEA, Europe, or worldwide. That is the employment shape the digital nomad visa (Ley 28/2022) covers: living in Spain while working for an employer abroad.
The visa is yours to obtain, not the employer’s. For 2026 it requires around €2,850 gross per month (€34,188 a year — 200% of the Spanish minimum wage) in total remote income, a relationship of at least three months with your employer or clients, and a university degree or three years’ experience. A salary on a listing is only an indicator: the income test is about you, and freelancers can combine several clients to meet it.
If you are an employee rather than a freelancer, your employer has to cooperate: a letter authorizing remote work from Spain, and social-security coverage — either a certificate under a bilateral agreement (the US and UK have one) or registering with Spanish social security. Ask before you commit; some companies do this readily, others won’t. Freelancers and contractors handle the application themselves, with work for Spanish companies capped at 20% of their activity.
A broad remote scope in an ad is a strong signal, not a promise. Before applying for the visa, confirm with the employer that working from Spain is allowed for the specific role — some remote roles carry residency or time-zone restrictions stated elsewhere in the ad.

Who it’s for

Non-EU remote employees of a company outside Spain, or freelancers whose Spanish clients stay under 20% of their work.
People earning at least €34,188 a year (€2,850 a month) in total remote income — from one job or several clients.
Anyone with a degree or three years’ experience and a working relationship of at least three months with their employer or clients.

What it isn’t

It is not sponsorship — none of these companies is applying for anything on your behalf.
It is not a promise the role allows working from Spain. A broad hiring scope is a strong signal; some remote roles carry residency or time-zone restrictions stated elsewhere in the ad. Confirm before you commit.
