What visa are you applying for?
In this episode of Passport To Wealth™, Carlos Lorenzo joins Arielle Tucker, CFP®, EA to explain why visa strategy should be the first step for US expats planning a move to Spain or Europe.
Recent changes to Spain immigration law in 2024 and 2025 are making it harder for expats to use flexible pathways that previously allowed them to relocate and adjust status later.
Here is what is changing:
• Fewer options to bring family members on certain visas
• Increased restrictions on switching visa types after arrival
• Greater scrutiny of popular pathways like student visas and temporary stays
• Governments tightening rules as more expats relocate to Spain
Many expats start with tax planning or cost of living.
But without the right visa, none of that matters.
