Live and invest in Mallorca with the Golden Visa

Live and invest in Mallorca with the Golden Visa

UPDATE November 2024

The Spanish Government revokes the Golden Visa for foreigners who purchase properties for more than €500,000.

The measure, adopted in 2013, and due to finalize in 2024 consisted of granting immediate residence and work permits to non-EU residents. From now on, buying a luxury property will no longer guarantee a visa for foreign investors.

Therefore, due to the measure on the part of the Spanish Government, from 2025 the Golden Visa will no longer be granted to individuals investing in real estate in Spain. The immediate residence permit will only be maintained for those non-EU citizens who establish companies (thus creating jobs) and purchase public debt worth at least €2 million.

However, holders of a current Golden Visa will be able to renew their residence permits and applications being processed will go ahead without any problem if submitted prior to the law coming into force. At the same time, it is probable that Spain will look into other ways to attract foreign investment so any potential investor should consult an expert in immigration and law.
