The United Kingdom (UK) left the European Union (EU) on the 31st January 2020 (BREXIT). If you are lucky to have an European Union (EU) passport obtaining residency is straight forward for you and any Non-EU family members.
If you only hold a non-EU passport don't despair, there are other options. The typical choices for UK Citizens / Passports holders are the Non Lucrative Visa (NLV), Digital Nomad Visa (DNV) and the Golden Visa.

I was born in Spain and lived in the UK for 21 years. I understand all the frustrations people from abroad coming to Spain can encounter. I have experienced this myself having to do all the necessary paperwork for my house, car, insurances, driving licences, NIE/TIE registrations, passports, and residency for my family. Fluent in Spanish and English, I'm able to help if you live in Spain now, or you are planning to relocate from another country. What better way to help than me personally leading you through it all step by step.
