Bank Statement for the Spain Digital Nomad Visa
Spain's digital nomad visa requires proof of stable remote income from non-Spanish clients or employers, set as a multiple of the national minimum wage. Bank statements showing regular client payments or salary deposits are the core evidence, submitted alongside contracts and invoices. Here is how to make yours easy to verify.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How much income does Spain's digital nomad visa require?
- The threshold is tied to Spain's minimum wage (SMI) — roughly 200 percent of SMI for the main applicant, with add-ons per family member. It adjusts annually, so verify the current figure before applying.
- Do freelancers need bank statements for this visa?
- Yes. Freelancers must show the income actually arriving — statements with recurring client payments carry more weight than invoices alone.
- Can income from multiple clients be combined?
- Yes. The requirement is total qualifying remote income. Clear labeling of each client's deposits on your statement summary helps the reviewer add it up.
- Does income from Spanish companies count?
- Only up to a small share. The visa is designed for income from outside Spain — the bulk of deposits on your statements must come from non-Spanish payers.
