Spain’s Entrepreneur Visa has one major gatekeeper: ENISA And it’s where many founders get stuck.

Before your application can move forward, ENISA must confirm that your business is:

- innovative
- scalable
- economically valuable to Spain

And no, a strong idea alone isn’t enough.

Your business plan needs to clearly demonstrate growth potential, market opportunity, monetisation and traction.

The process is fully digital and can take up to 3 months, SO timing matters too.

Whether your timeline is one year, three years or five, the important thing is choosing one.

Once you know when, you can start figuring out how.

So... what's your timeline?

JUST IN: Italian citizenship rules have changed.

If you were previously told you didn't qualify for Italian citizenship by descent because of the "Minor Issue," this update could be worth your attention.

Italy's Supreme Court has ruled that children who were already born with dual citizenship (for example, Italian by descent and American by birth) did not automatically lose their Italian citizenship when their parents later naturalised.

Why does that matter?

For some families – particularly in the US, Canada and Australia, it could reopen citizenship-by-descent opportunities that were previously considered closed.

That said, this doesn't automatically make everyone eligible. Applicants must still meet Italy's current citizenship requirements.

If you were advised years ago that your family line was blocked because of the Minor Issue, it may be worth reviewing your eligibility in light of this ruling.

One of the biggest surprises for Americans moving to Spain?
You can't get fingerprinted for an FBI background check at the US Embassy in Madrid or any US Consulate in Spain.

It's a detail that catches a lot of applicants off guard – and often turns what seems like a simple document into a much bigger administrative task.

If you're applying for a Spain Non-Lucrative Visa, Digital Nomad Visa, most work visas or even citizenship, an FBI criminal record check is likely to be on your checklist.

And it doesn't stop there.

You'll also need:
✔ A federal apostille
✔ A sworn Spanish translation
✔ To submit everything within your consulate's validity window

Planning ahead can make the process significantly smoother and help avoid unnecessary delays.

If you'd rather have one team coordinate the process from start to finish, send us a DM, we are here to help!

We know it doesn't always work out.

After our last post on the most common reasons Spain Non-Lucrative Visa applications are refused, one question we kept getting asked was:

"What happens if my visa is denied?"

Receiving a refusal can feel like a major setback, but it doesn't always mean the end of your relocation plans.

If your application has been refused, acting quickly is key. From knowing your appeal deadline to understanding the difference between an administrative and judicial appeal, there are clear steps you can take to protect your options.

We've broken down the appeal process into six simple steps, so you know exactly what happens next.

Save this guide for future reference, and if you're currently navigating a refusal, our immigration team in Spain are here to help.
