For an initial non-lucrative residence permit, the source states that applicants must prove funds equal to at least 400% of IPREM. Digital Nomad applicants must show income of 200% of Spain’s SMI; with the 2026 SMI set at EUR 1,221 per month over 14 payments, an in-country residence authorisation may be issued for up to three years.
The source brings together the key financial thresholds for two popular relocation routes: non-lucrative residence and the Digital Nomad route. This directly affects the preparation of bank statements and income evidence, while remote workers also need to distinguish between a visa of up to one year and an in-country residence authorisation of up to three years. The information is most relevant to financially independent applicants and digital nomads, whose family applications carry additional financial requirements. It is worth reviewing for anyone preparing a 2026 application.
