Retiring to Spain post Brexit
Good morning
We have just sold our property in the UK and are looking to retire to Spain at some point this year. We were initially drawn to Menorca as we have friends on the island, however we are flying to Barcelona to recce the coast by car and flying back from Alicante. Having lived in Jersey for a number of years we prefer quieter areas with coves rather that the traditional resorts.
We will be pursuing the NLV route, however we are finding it surprisingly difficult to obtain general advice
We will be requiring financial/taxation advice and advice on the visa process
Any help would be much appreciated

Re: Retiring to Spain post Brexit
It all depends on your budget of course. So basically all Girona province.

Do you have a UK, EU or Irish passport?
To apply for a non lucrative visa you will need to apply through the Spanish consulate in the UK. You will need to meet the income and healthcare requirements.

Re: Retiring to Spain post Brexit
You will need to apply for the NLV from the Spanish consulate in London, Manchester or Edinburgh.
You will need to prove that you have an income of €27,792.96 for the first person per annum plus €6,948.24 for each additional person within the family.
The income could be accepted as savings plus a substantial income.
You will need full private healthcare paid for a full year for each family member.
You will need other documentation as required which will need to be translated into Spanish.
If you gain the NLV you can then move to Spain and apply for residency within the first month.

Re: Retiring to Spain post Brexit
As Gibraltar will soon be back into Spanish hands it might be a choice but it is a very poor section of Spain with drug runners and immigrants from Africa in the waters almost everyday..
The NLV is good for 1 year and then reapplying you will have to maintain the income / savings requirements to maintain the visa and the right to live here.
In the Valencian community (the best) there are villajosia or el campello though Campello can get a little busy in the summer months.
