Spanish Golden Visa

Investor’s residence or as some call it the Golden Visa, is for applicants who wish to benefit from the advantages of being resident in Spain and yet not be classified as a resident for tax purposes. 

You will be eligible for the following investments:

• Investment funds, closed-end investment funds or venture capital funds incorporated in Spain (€1 million).

Provided that the first 500,000 euros of the value of the property is unencumbered. The Spanish government is considering suppressing this type of investment.
