Thanks for telling me. 

Is there an applicable rule, or a list of prohibited "information" that I can peruse, just to make sure that I don't post anything in these categories? 

I suggest you PM Herefordjack who will probably enlighten you.

As earlier mail stated from our esteemed colleague.  For you as a UK passport holder to get residency in Spain, there are different Visa routes you can take.

1) NLV (normally for retired) NO Work permitted. Granted for one year, thereafter 2 year applications, You can change to apply for work vusa or self employed visa ( difficult to get)

2) Work Visa: sponsored by Spanish company (not self employed person, company has to be A valid Enterprise of some standing)  these visa's are near impossible to get.

3) self Employed Visa.  You havevto have a valid business plan and show hiw you are going to employ spamish labour.  You have to be registered for Tax and NI and a whole load of other requirements.  (Difficult to get)

4) HQP permit. (HIGHLY Qualified Person)  Again to be sponsored by Spanish company.  Be degree educated (minimum is first degree) from recognised and internationally approved University. HNC/HND not accepted.  (Very difficult to obtain)

Hope this helps, your choices are limited and heavily restricted.  Applicable to post brexit applicants or pre-brexit applicants who did not register intimescale given.

As you were the one to tell me that certain information is not permitted here, it seemed only natural that you would be able to make me aware of these arcane subjects. Is it the case that you don't know, or do you know but don't want to tell me? 

I do wonder how I'm not going to fall foul of the forum admin if nobody will, or is able, to tell me what my posts can and cannot contain.

It's not a case of types of information, more a case of other sources of information. Geddit?

By the way, don't PM me, I'm now not allowed to answer them.

Can we stop the code please? Are you and Jack saying you can advise a way round the immigration regulations but don't want to post it publicly? Because that's what it looks like I'm afraid. 

I think we'd all like to know what it is about moving to Spain that can't be posted on a forum?

Asking for a friend!

How can I get the wrong end of the stick when I haven't seen the stick let alone touched it!

Relyat and I have both asked politely why the answer to the question can't be displayed on the open forum. Your replies to Relyat and me are just creating more mystery and confusion. Perhaps you would do the decent thing and explain?

This is the type of issue that occasionally causes Alex to close a thread, which would be a shame for the person who asked the original question about working self employed in Spain.

Don't worry about the OP, she now has all the information she needs.

You need to do a bit of lateral thinking.

That is insulting and I have marked it unhelpful. 

It's also a bit arrogant to be perfectly honest.

You do what you want, matey. You're not getting the point however much I'm trying to steer you. Have a nice day.
