For employees of foreign companies that allow remote work from Spain. Requires the company to have at least 1 year of existence and certify the possibility of remote work.

  • Social Security coverage certificate or registration in Spain.

Real Risks and UGE Criteria

The process before the Large Companies Unit (UGE-CE) is rigorous. A small error in interpreting the criteria can result in file closure or immediate denial.

Insufficient Financial Means

It is vital to demonstrate stable income equivalent to 200% of the minimum wage (plus percentages for family members).

Social Security Conflicts

Lack of bilateral agreements or incorrect certificates is the #1 cause of requirements.

Our Security Methodology
