Living in Valencia

Spain's third-largest city offers the beach lifestyle and Mediterranean climate of Barcelona at significantly lower prices, with a walkable old town and excellent local food scene (paella was invented here). The digital nomad community is booming, and the city has invested heavily in bike lanes and green spaces. Less English is spoken here than in Barcelona or Madrid, so basic Spanish goes a long way.

Morning coffee in sun-drenched plazas, afternoon siestas, and late-night tapas with neighbors who become family while the rest of Europe shivers through winter.

Visa

Digital Nomad Visa — requires remote work for a non-Spanish company (3+ months tenure), min ~€2,850/mo income, and a degree or 3 years experience. Valid 1 year, up to 3 years. Special 24% flat tax rate. Non-Lucrative Visa suits retirees and those with passive income (€28,800/yr, no work allowed).

Next steps for moving to Spain

Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.

1

Understand the buying rules

Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.

2

Sort out your visa

Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.

3

Plan your finances

Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.

4

Know your tax obligations

US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.

5

Set up healthcare

Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.

6

Run the full checklist

Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
