Where do Australians apply for the Spain digital nomad visa?
Updated · Consulates guide · Not legal advice
Australian residents apply at the Spanish mission covering their state or territory: the Embassy in Canberra or the Consulates General in Sydney or Melbourne. Check the embassy's consulates page for your area and each consulate's page for its booking method.
| Mission | Official site |
|---|---|
| Embassy, Canberra | Canberra |
| Consulate General, Sydney | Sydney |
| Consulate General, Melbourne | Melbourne |
Same requirements
Australians meet the same rules as other non-EU applicants: at least €2,849 a month for one person, remote work for non-Spanish employers or clients for 3+ months, degree or 3 years' experience, insurance and a clean record. See requirements.
Plan for distance
Appointments are in person and documents need apostilles and sworn translations. Check the consulate's page for how far ahead to book. If you can travel to Spain first, applying from inside Spain may be simpler.
