Good afternoon all.

I am looking to move to Spain as soon as the borders are open. I have a residence there and my partner used to live there (Elda) for a period of 3yrs prior to us meeting last year. I add at this point that she is of Polish nationality and would still be able to move freely. We are due to be married next year.

I do have the offer of work (real estate) but will need to come back to UK periodically to see my Son or maybe pick him up to bring over for a week or so.

Can anyone assist with what my options are.? I also add that we are also looking to open a bar and restaurant but to rent initially and would not be for another 6 months until the market picks up...

many thanks

Simon

Hello Simon

You would be wise to read the requirements for residencia/TIE cards from Jan 2021. There are different types of Visa required to start your application, --- which is now with the Spanish Consulate in UK. Until then you can only visit for up to 90days in a rolling 180 which is for visitors from third world countries. Your partner is unlikely to be hampered by all the new regulation & as she is an EU citizen & as she has lived in Spain for 3yrs I assume she has legal residencia already. Heres the link with all current details to give you some idea what the criteria is.
