About the service

What is the Spanish Citizenship by Residency?

Imagine the peace of mind that comes with finally holding your Spanish Passport, knowing your future and your rights are permanently secure in Europe. Obtaining Spanish citizenship by residency is the path to achieving that dream, recognizing your journey and integration into Spanish society.

It is your right after years of contributing and calling this country home.

The key to a successful application is understanding the timelines. While the general rule requires ten years of legal and continuous residence, your personal situation could unlock a much faster route.

For citizens of Ibero-American countries, Andorra, the Philippines, or Equatorial Guinea, the requirement is reduced to just two years. This period shortens to a single year if you are married to a Spanish national, were born in Spain, or meet other specific conditions.

Knowing which path applies to you is the first strategic step.

Beyond time, your application must prove two critical elements: “good civic conduct” and “sufficient integration.” This is where many applications falter.

We guide you through demonstrating this with a clean criminal record and successfully passing the required exams: the DELE A2 for language and the CCSE for constitutional and sociocultural knowledge. These are not mere formalities, but milestones that certify your connection to Spain.

Today, the entire process of solicitar la nacionalidad española can be done online. Submitting your file telematically with a lawyer is the most significant advantage you can have, drastically reducing resolution times compared to traditional methods.

An impeccable, professionally prepared digital file is prioritized, bringing you closer to your goal much faster.

Our expertise lies in building that perfect digital file, ensuring every document is correct and every requirement is flawlessly met, turning a complex bureaucratic process into your straightforward path to citizenship.

Requirements to apply for a Spanish Citizenship by Residency

These are requirements for Spanish Citizenship by Residency applicants:

Continuous Legal Residency

You must prove you have lived in Spain legally and without significant interruptions for the required period (generally 10, 5, 2, or 1 year). Absences are strictly monitored and cannot exceed certain limits.
You must demonstrate “good civic conduct” by providing criminal record certificates from your country of origin and from Spain. Any unfavorable record could jeopardize your application.
You must pass the “Constitutional and Sociocultural Knowledge of Spain” exam (CCSE), administered by the Instituto Cervantes. This tests your knowledge of Spanish government, law, culture, and society.
Unless you are a citizen of a Spanish-speaking country, you must prove a basic command of the language by passing the “Diploma of Spanish as a Foreign Language” level A2 or higher.
All personal documents, such as your birth certificate, must be correctly legalized or apostilled and, if necessary, translated into Spanish by a sworn translator.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the Spanish Citizenship by Residency

Can I keep my original citizenship when obtaining Spanish nationality?

Yes, in some cases, Spain allows dual nationality depending on international agreements between countries. If your country has a dual nationality treaty with Spain, you won’t need to renounce your original citizenship. Otherwise, the general rule requires renunciation.
The main advantage is speed. Electronic applications submitted by accredited professionals are processed through a specific platform that significantly shortens resolution times, often reducing the wait from years to months. It also minimizes errors and provides a secure record of your submission.
Yes. Unlike a student stay, residency obtained through a Golden Visa is a legal residency permit. Therefore, the time you have lived in Spain under this scheme fully counts towards the period required to apply for Spanish nationality.
The “Jura” is the final step after your application is approved. It is a formal act at the Civil Registry where you swear or promise allegiance to the King, the Constitution, and Spanish laws. You have 180 days from the approval notification to complete this step, after which you are officially a Spanish citizen.
The residency must be continuous. This means that absences should not exceed three consecutive months. The authorities will review your passport entries and exits to verify this.

Your new life in Spain is just a step away.
