6 Spanish residency permit advantages!

 

On 31 January 2020 the United Kingdom officially left the Union and the Brexit transition period ends on 31 December 2020. real estate qatar

Following the last month's article (Spanish Residency Authorisation: Time is running out!), we are now up to the last day for British citizens to take advantage of all the advantages that the transition period has to offer when applying for a Spanish residency. We strongly advise all UK nationals now, before the end of the year, if possible, to apply for residence permits. By 2021, the requirements for the application will be much harder, and many will no longer be eligible.

To make matters more complicated, it would seem that the U.K. authorities are heading for a no-deal Brexit, which would put even more pressure on you to get this done and done whilst you can. Immigration authorities have strengthened the requirements for a new change from November on the Spanish side, which now categorically requires the applicants to prove their habitual residency in Spain. This, besides the one we reported in July 2020, is the second big change in 2020.

Please take note of the large number of rights given to us since the United Kingdom has been a member of the Union for the last 47 years; but they will no longer be available for everyone who did not get a residence permit from 2021, so please do not take them for granted, and be proactive for your own sake.

Apart from the following six reasons, there are also tax advantages: Tax benefits of residing in Spain – 8 March 2018.

As a national of a Member State of the Union you must now apply for a Spanish residence and make sure that you secure your European rights before it is too late.

Six Spanish residence permit benefits

Free movement within the Schengen Area

You are allowed unrestricted access throughout the Schengen area with a Spanish residence permit. Avoid pesky passport checkups, avoid multiple visa requests, avoid long queues. A visa-free access permit is available to you in all 26 Schengen countries.

Right in Spain to live (Europe)

Again, most UK nationals accept this for granted, but this will be far more challenging in a post-Brexit world. A residency permit legally allows you to remain unchallenged within the Union territory and live your lives. Illegal aliens who do not have a valid residency permit and who spend over the 90-day period may be deported to their country of residence.

Work right

A residency permit allows you to usually search for a job. Employers in Spain are going to ask job seekers to show that they are legally in Spain to avoid major fines for the hiring of illegal immigrants.

Right to learn

Students can live and study in Spain through residency permits (Europe).

Voting right

Say on local elections, vote to improve things in your town for a mayor.

Right to healthcare (S1)

Once you have obtained a Spanish residency permit, UK pensioners may request that their accrued UK health rights be fully transferred to Spain through the S1 procedure. You can use the Spanish healthcare system in equal rights to all indigenous persons as long as you remain in Spain. This service is available at a flat rate: Transfer of healthcare rights (S1 – Registration of Social Security).

Finishing line

Any EU national living more than 90 consecutive days in Spain must, by law, apply for a Spanish residence permit.

Please note that within the Spanish territory, you may legally stay for a maximum of 90 days, each rolling six-month period within one calendar year.

At the end of the Brexit transition period, British nationals are important to achieve a Spanish residence permit, using the lenient conditions currently in place while they are in existence.

You should be advised that it takes several weeks to achieve a Spanish residence permit (in Malaga), so please plan ahead. What matters is that you file it before the deadline of 31-12-2020.

Please do not sleep on it for your own sake, as the clock is ticking.

"By playing golf I met my wife. She's French, she can't speak French, and I can't speak French, so we were unlikely to be engaged in any boring talks – that's why we got married really quickly." Sean Connery – Connery

Thomas Sean Connery from 1930 – 2020. Was born in Edinburgh, my beloved. Before his professional career, he worked for a number of work positions such as a milkman, Royal Navy sailor, truck driver, footballer, body builder, lifeguard, worker, coffin polisher, model artist and part-time babysitter (sic). At the age of 27, he started his career as an actor who brought him global appreciation as one of his generation's best actors. His leading role in the first James Bond film brought him great loudness and years later he was considered to be the best actor to play the incorrigible Bond. Marnie (1964), The Man Who Would Be King (1974); A Bridge Too Far (1977), Highlander (1986), The Name of the Rose (1986), The Untouchables (1987), Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989); the Hunt for Red October (1990). (1996). He officially retired in 2006, but returned for some voice acting roles in 2012 briefly. I met him several times when I was younger at Aloha Golf in Marbella, and he lived with his second wife for several decades until he left to the Bahamas. A proud Scotsman, he sworn that unless they were politically independent, he would never return to his native Scotland. True to his word, he would die abroad when his dream was never fulfilled. He was proud to be able to sport a tattoo: "Scotland Forever."
