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

No, 3 years work experience is acceptable

We tried to plan everything with military like precision so we had a ferry booked roughly when we thought we would be approved. We were in Spain for about 2 weeks then we received the approval. We had come to Spain earlier in the year to make the application

Alot of them need translation but some only sworn translation. If you contact those move to Spain guide people they will be able to provide a clear list of what needs translating

The A1 is basically a declaration you are liable to pay national insurance in the UK even if loving in Spain.

You will need to pay income tax in Spain once you become tax resident. Income tax is a bit higher in Spain. There's a dual taxation agreement so you won't pay tax twice

Your employer needs to fill in a CA3821 and at the same time you need to fill in a CA3822. Wait patiently then after about 14 weeks you'll get an A1

Yeah this is pretty common.

Yearly it's just over 30,000 euros (if applying in Spain) consulates set their own amounts sometimes (not sure they're meant to but they do whatever the fuck they want it seems)

So 30,000 euros as dollars/12

I live in the "Campo" near malaga, quite high up in the mountains. There's maybe 3/4 houses within a kilometre of me.

It's peaceful, warm, stunning views. Ive worked really hard to make friends and that's paid dividends so. I live in tranquility but get plenty of time socialising in malaga or other areas.

My Spanish neighbours are lovely and so welcoming. Constantly giving me fruit, veg and nuts they grow.

It's the remote lifestyle I've always wanted. But instead of somewhere cold inthe UK it's somewhere lovely and warm 😆

Unfortunately this will not work I'm afraid.

Multiple requirements will actually work against you in this situation. If moving to Spain really is your goal you may want to do a consultation with an immigration specialist who can help you understand what the requirements are and how you could become eligible in the future.

You could, for instance, move to Spain on a student visa and work on setting up your business whilst on the student visa.

I got approved based off positive administrative silence so it actually took 40 days.

They are legally obligated to respond in 20 working days and if they don't you are entitled to positive administrative silence
