In December of 2022 Spain released a digital nomad visa.

I moved to Spain under the visa in August of this year. Life is exactly what i hoped it would be out here and I couldn't be happier.

I've been helping others make the move by providing visa info as well as other helpful advice and tips since march this year.

I did a similar post to this a while ago, but thought I'd give this Reddit community another chance to AMA relating to the visa and moving to Spain now I've been here a bit longer and now that the visa is even more better understood.

If you're looking to move to spain and want to know more about the DNV, please, ask away.

Hi! May I know what you did for the health insurance part? Did you get a private insurance based in EU/Spain, how much does it cost and what’s the requirements? Is it linked to social security payment in Spain? I’m also keen to move to Málaga :)

If you register as an autonomo you don't need private health insurance

If you are from the UK and coming as an employee you can get an S1

Otherwise, you have to get Spanish private health insurance that is equivalent to public healthcare in Spain, no exemptions, no excess, repatriation etc.

Cost will be based off your age. For me it was £600 for the year
