How to enter and live in the country before the passport route

Visitor / short-stay entry

Many visa-exempt visitors are admitted for up to 90 days; passport-specific rules apply.

Residence permit & duration

Temporary residence is commonly granted for 1–3 years through work, study, family, rentista/pensionado and other grounds, with renewal.

Permanent / long-term residence

Permanent residence is available on specific grounds and after qualifying temporary residence; citizenship remains a separate judicial/administrative route.

Residence-permit support is priced individually after the country and scope are defined.
