Remote workers, freelancers, and entrepreneurs are choosing Spain not just for the sun, but for the legal simplicity of its Digital Nomad Visa (DNV).
Introduced under Spain’s Startup Law, this visa offers a legal path to live in Spain while working remotely for non-Spanish clients or companies — and enjoy major tax benefits while you’re at it.
