Spain is one of the most attractive countries in Southern Europe and is a member of both the EU and the Schengen Area. Spanish citizenship offers vast opportunities: free residence, employment, and education across EU countries, as well as visa-free travel worldwide.
Spanish citizenship is not just a status, but a lifestyle: Mediterranean climate, developed infrastructure, high-quality healthcare, and education. It’s a real step toward a stable and vibrant future in Europe.
Spanish citizenship can be obtained through naturalization, investment programs, marriage, or long-term legal residence. While Spain generally does not allow dual citizenship (with exceptions), its passport ranks among the most powerful globally, granting access to over 170 countries without a visa
