no document needed, but if you have won a lot, then you could probably buy Spain.

well he doesn't need a visa, can just go over there and rent a place, so no document needed to get over there and start living there, yes he will need to sort other stuff out on arrival, but to actually get there and start living with (possibly) a fortune in the bank then he can do just that.

Greenboyirish- you will have tons of paper work, believe me if you intend to live legally in Spain
The Spanish taxman will just love you!
Spain is the last country 1 would choose if I had won euromillions

Just a small note to say that there are very few houses right in front of beach in Spain. And if there are, then indeed they could cost millions, so hope you won a lot!

You also need to take into account the "ley de costas"

He is asking the same questions on the PT forum.
Portugal does have a beneficial tax system for some of those taking up residence.
