The digital nomad visa lets you live in Spain while keeping foreign clients or an overseas employer, but the rules are not as simple as they look. At Mecan Legal we assess requirements, income, tax position and paperwork so your move is secure and your permit is not put at risk.
Medium-term rentals in Spain can be a smart way for foreign owners to generate income without committing to a classic long-term tenancy or jumping into tourist licences. This guide explains how seasonal contracts from one month onwards work, why regional rules matter, and how to structure clauses and tax so your property strategy stays compliant.
A major build in Spain is not managed by plans alone. It is managed through contracts, site minutes and documented decisions. A construction lawyer coordinates architects and contractors, structures delay penalties and protects your duties as promotor. Mecan Legal combines legal control, tax awareness and dispute strategy to keep budgets and timelines defensible.
When a deceased person leaves assets in Spain, the estate becomes more complex if heirs and the executor are abroad. You must identify assets, coordinate cross-border documents, sign before a Spanish notary and meet strict tax deadlines. Mecan Legal acts as local representative, coordinates with foreign notaries and law firms, and manages registration and sales to close the Spanish segment safely
Getting legally married in Spain as foreign residents is not just signing papers. It involves documents, language logistics and, crucially, your marital property regime, which affects assets, debts and inheritance. A tailored prenuptial or postnuptial agreement can prevent future conflict, especially with pre-existing wealth or children. Mecan Legal coordinates the notary process, agreements and property structure for international couples.
Most foreigners in Spain do not stay under the same permit forever. You might start as a student, on a non-lucrative visa or as a family member and later need to work, start a business or gain independence. Changing your residence permit type in Spain and planning renewals correctly is essential to avoid gaps, refusals and losing years for long-term residence or citizenship.
Opening a small activity in Spain – classes, consulting, a shop or studio – looks simple, but involves permits, registration, tax and immigration rules. Mecan Legal aligns your residence status, legal structure and tax obligations so you can start “small” with confidence and without surprises from the tax office or town hall.
Buying a parking space or storage unit in Spain seems simple, but some garages are short-term concessions and others are inseparable annexes to a flat. This guide explains the basic legal checks you should make so the unit you reserve can really be sold and rented as you expect.
If you are a senior or highly skilled professional and want to work in Spain, the Highly Qualified Professional regime can offer faster processing, better family options and more certainty. Mecan Legal analyses your profile and the employer’s situation to see whether this route is stronger than a standard work permit.
If you want to live in Spain for a year before retirement, you need more than a flight and a dream. Mecan Legal designs your 6–12 month “test year” with the right visa, safe rental contract and clear tax planning, so you can try your future life in Spain without legal or fiscal shocks.
