Highly Qualified Professional Residence
Bring international expertise to Spain
Spain's international mobility framework provides a residence pathway for qualifying highly qualified professionals taking eligible positions with Spanish organisations.
The supplied programme PDF contained no readable text, so this page uses only the pathway confirmed in the Spain country guide and avoids unsupported salary or qualification claims.
CETO Global assesses each case and coordinates the process with qualified Spanish legal and immigration professionals.

Is this the same as the EU Blue Card?
