1. Foreign Entrepreneurs in Spain

If you want to start a business in Spain, you need little more than a government-vetted business plan, health insurance and enough money to support yourself while living in Spain. It is quite easy for entrepreneurs to secure initial one-year Residence Visas to carry out the preliminary formalities required to engage in entrepreneurial activity. Entrepreneurial activity includes just about anything that would create jobs in Spain.

After their first year, entrepreneurs can apply for authorization to live in Spain for an additional two years, renewable for another two years. You need to live in Spain only six months out of the year to be able to secure visa renewals.

Compared to most other European and North American cities, Spanish cities such as Madrid and Barcelona have fewer competitors while offering excellent talent and technical expertise at a much lower cost. On top of this, various local and national Spanish government entities offer unsecured lending programs and Spanish law is considerably more favorable to new businesses than the legal codes of other European nations. Just by way of one example, Spain does not require a minimum investment in new businesses.
