Spain Digital Nomad Visa (DNV) residence permit — application from Moscow
A route for those currently in Russia. The DNV is obtained by filing a national D visa application at the Spanish Consulate General in Moscow — no need to move to Spain in advance. Once the visa is approved, you enter the country and obtain your TIE residence card there. We handle the entire journey: from the case review and document apostilles in Moscow to your TIE card in Spain.
We take on difficult cases — even if on paper you don't seem to meet the requirements
We don't turn people away: we find the right grounds and route for your situation — including past refusals, non-standard documents, and complicated circumstances. Money-back guarantee: we work under a contract, payment is staged and tied to results, and if your application is refused, we refund our fees.
Who this route is for
- Those currently in Russia who want a Spanish residence permit without traveling to Spain first: the application goes through the consulate in Moscow.
- Employees of foreign companies and freelancers with clients outside Spain. Self-employed applicants may earn up to 20% of their income from companies registered in Spain — the rest must come from foreign sources.
- Those who prefer to enter Spain with an approved D visa in hand and obtain the TIE card locally, rather than looking for grounds to apply from within the country.
If you are already in Spain or ready to enter first, a different route fits better: DNV filed from within Spain. Still choosing a jurisdiction? See our comparison of digital nomad visas across other European countries — by income thresholds, taxes, and timelines.
How filing from Moscow works
- Free case review. We check your income, the nature of your remote work, and your family composition — and confirm that the Moscow consulate route works for you.
- Collecting and apostilling documents in Russia. We prepare the criminal record certificate and proof of employment and income, and apostille the required documents.
- Sworn translations into Spanish. We arrange document translations that the consulate will accept.
- Appointment and filing at the consulate. We book the appointment and file the national D visa application at the Spanish Consulate General in Moscow.
- Receiving the D visa. We support you through visa issuance and responses to any follow-up requests from the consulate.
- Entering Spain and the TIE card. You enter on the visa, obtain your NIE (foreigner identification number) and TIE, and receive the residence card — we see the process through to the physical card.

What stays on your side
- Hand over the source documents and accurate details of your situation — from there we do the work ourselves.
- Pay the government fees and third-party services: translations, apostille, notary. These are paid directly and are not part of the case handling.
- Appear in person where presence is required: fingerprinting, the consular interview, signing before a notary.
- Tell us when something changes — address, job, family, letters from the authority: the timeline depends on it.
The procedures rest on the Reglamento de Extranjería (RD 1155/2024, in force since 20 May 2025) and, for citizenship, on the Código Civil; the official texts are published by the BOE. EuroGarant is a private firm: we are not a government body and are not affiliated with Extranjería, the National Police or the Spanish consulates. The decision on an application is made by the authority alone.

The digital nomad permit is about remote work for a foreign employer or foreign clients, evidenced by a contract and genuine income of 2,760–2,850 € per month. The entrepreneur residence permit is about your own business project in Spain: a plan, a rationale, an economic assessment. These are different document packages and a different review logic. Which basis fits better becomes clear once we go through your income source and your plans; if one does not work out, we look at the other.
At the application stage — with a contract with a foreign employer or clients, proof that the company is genuinely operating, bank statements, income and tax payment certificates, and sometimes a diploma or proof of professional experience. Once the residence permit is granted, the status is confirmed at renewal: remote work outside Spain continues, income stays at the required level, and taxes and social security contributions are paid in Spain.
No. This is a Spanish residence permit; it assumes that you live in Spain and are a tax resident there. A lengthy absence puts the renewal at risk, along with the further path to permanent residence after 5 years and citizenship after 10 years. If your goal is to live in another EU country, that is handled separately: we will go through your situation and find a basis for the country you need or a two-step route.
Yes, self-employment qualifies for this basis: the law allows work under contracts with foreign clients. You will need the contracts themselves, proof of regular income at the level of 2,760–2,850 € per month, and tax filings; the share of income from Spanish clients is capped. Such cases are considered non-standard more often than employed ones, so we put the package together carefully — we will go through your income structure and show you what is missing.
