Service five, New
Stay. Settle. Belong.

See which countries fit the life you actually want, in 8 quick taps.
From student visa to settled.
For students who studied in Spain and want to stay. The first year after graduation is critical: Spain offers a 12-month job-seeker permit that converts to a work permit with an offer, then long-term residency at the 5-year mark.
Skip the degree. Settle directly.
For people who never wanted to be students, remote workers, freelancers, families with savings, entrepreneurs, retirees, those joining family. We profile your situation, identify the route that fits, and coordinate the legal work.

How it works
From profile to residency card.
Profile audit
A 30-minute discovery call. We map your situation honestly, citizenship, income source and stability, family setup, savings, language, timeline, goals, and know which 1 to 3 routes are realistic.
Route recommendation
A short written analysis of the viable routes: costs, timelines, realistic odds, post-arrival rights, path to permanent residency. We push the right option, not the most expensive.
Document preparation
We coordinate everything Visagrad-side, apostilles, certified translations, financial proofs, criminal-record checks, medical certificates. The paperwork is where most applications fail.
Legal submission
We assign your case to a vetted Spanish abogado chosen for the specific case type. The lawyer handles the legal submission, consular liaison and any contentious matters.
Post-arrival setup
We walk you through TIE registration, padrón inscription and bank-account opening, and we're on call for renewals, most residency cards renew every 1 to 5 years.
We are not a law firm. We're your strategist and project manager, profile assessment, route mapping, paperwork and coordination. The legal submissions, official representations and any contentious matters are handled by licensed Spanish abogados in our network.
