Spain residence by investment

The Spanish Golden Visa program was introduced in 2013 allowing individuals to legally seek residence through a specified financial contribution (either by a real estate investment, deposit in a Spanish financial institution, or government bonds). The applicant for residency may include his immediate family (spouse, dependent children, and parents). Initially, the Spanish residency visa is granted as a temporary residence for one or three years (issued for 1 year if applied outside of Spain or 3 years if applied within Spain) and is renewable for a further five years , under the condition that the chosen investment is still in place. After the fifth year of initial residency, an applicant may apply for a permanent residence visa. An applicant and his family are eligible to apply for Spanish citizenship after a residency period of ten years.
