Important Tips: Digital Nomad residency Renewal

✅ Keys and Tips for Renewing the Digital Nomad Residence Permit in Spain
For those looking to renew their digital nomad residence permit in Spain, it is essential to understand certain requirements and prepare in advance. Here are some key tips to help avoid complications during the process:
✔ Maintain the required balance in your bank account for social security payments
During the first two years of residence, social security fees are typically around €85. However, if at any point the payment attempt is made and your account does not have sufficient funds, the subsidy is lost, and the fee increases to €350. To avoid this increase, make sure you always have sufficient funds available.
✔ Prepare the renewal documentation three months in advance
It is important not to be caught off guard by the deadlines. You have three months before your residence expires to begin gathering the necessary documentation, and you can submit your application two months before the card expires. This timeframe will allow you to respond to any requirements or resubmit your application if it is rejected.
✔ Renew your passport at your country’s consulate in Spain
When you need to renew your passport, do so at your country’s consulate in Spain. This is important because the consulate in Spain typically returns your old passport, allowing you to keep the entry and exit stamps needed to prove your time of residence.
✔ Keep proof of stay
Keep proof of stay, such as utility bills (electricity, phone, etc.), every three or four months. This will be useful if your passport is lost, as it will help demonstrate your time in the country and validate your continuous residence.
