Visado y Residencia de Nómada Digital (digital nomad visa, Ley 14/2013)
Visado y Residencia de Nómada Digital (digital nomad visa, Ley 14/2013) is filed with Unidad de Grandes Empresas y Colectivos Estratégicos (UGE-CE). With Managora you do it 100% online: you answer a few questions, sign a digital mandato (power of representation) and we draft, sign and file your application for you. Estimated total cost: €1,150. Official tasa (government fee): The official residence permit fee (tasa, Modelo 790 code 038, €73.26 in 2026) is already included in the price: we advance it and file it for you. If you are outside Spain and what you apply for is the visa, the consular fee is paid directly at the consulate, we do not advance it and each consulate sets its own amount. Sworn translations (traductor jurado) or apostilles (apostilla) for documents that need them are quoted separately and communicated to you before you pay.
We process your visa or residence permit as an international teleworker (Ley 14/2013, updated by the Startups Law, Ley 28/2022): for people working remotely for companies based outside Spain, either as an employee (foreign employers only) or self-employed (up to 20% of clients in Spain). If you are already in Spain lawfully, we file the 3-year residence permit electronically before the UGE-CE, decided within 20 days with positive administrative silence. If you are outside Spain, what you apply for is the teleworking visa of up to 1 year at the Spanish consulate in your country: we prepare and review the whole file, and you attend the consulate appointment yourself. Renewable for 2-year periods. Your family can come with you through our Reagrupación Familiar Express (express family reunification).

Prerequisites we also handle for you
This procedure needs documents that we also obtain. If you are missing any, ask us for it here and come back once you have it:
- Certificado de antecedentes penales (criminal record certificate, Registro Central de Penados)€54
- Apostilla de La Haya (Hague Apostille) on a public document€50
And whatever a third party provides, we arrange it
- Traducción jurada (sworn translation) into Spanish
- Apostilla or legalisation of a foreign document
You do not have to look for anyone: we coordinate it. As it is provided by a third party it is quoted separately and does not go inside the price of this procedure, and we tell you the amount before ordering it.
Legal basis and things to bear in mind
- Legal framework: Ley 14/2013 (arts. 74 bis to 74 quinquies), added by the Startups Law (Ley 28/2022).
- Durations: teleworking visa of up to 1 year; residence permit of up to 3 years, renewable for 2-year periods as long as the conditions are maintained.
- Two different routes depending on where you are: from inside Spain the 3-year permit is filed before the UGE-CE and we file it for you; from outside Spain the visa is applied for at the Spanish consulate in your country of residence (art. 74 quater) and you must attend in person. The UGE-CE does not decide anything before the visa.
- If you are a shareholder or director of the foreign company you will telework for, the file is delicate: with effective control (50% of the capital or more, or 25% with management duties) the employment route of art. 74 ter c) is closed and you must use the commercial relationship of art. 74 ter d), with a services agreement signed by another director, invoices and traceable payments covering at least 3 months. The UGE-CE refuses cases where the foreign company is a personal vehicle with no substance.
- As an employee you may only work for companies based outside Spain; if self-employed, you may invoice clients in Spain for up to 20% of your activity.
- Your family (spouse or partner, children and dependent ascendants) can apply at the same time or later through our Reagrupación Familiar Express for Talent Visas (express family reunification).
