What does a company need to hire a foreigner?


There are many reasons why a Spanish company may want to hire a worker from outside the European Union.


In these cases, it is essential that the entire procedure follow the forecasts of Organic Law 4/2000, on Immigration (LOE). This standard establishes that All those foreigners who want to reside and work in Spain legally must have administrative authorization and their corresponding registration with the Social Security. You must also follow the forecasts of the Law 14/2013 of Entrepreneurs, in your international mobility title.


The community citizens can be hired freely Yes, although the administrative residence requirements regulated in the Royal Decree 240/2007.


In the case of companies, our experts advise that all the processing begins even before the new employee arrives in the national territory. This allows the foreign citizen to arrive in Spain with their permits in order. 

Requirements to obtain a work authorization for a foreigner


  • The company must be registered with Social Security.


  • You must be up to date with the Tax Agency, this includes census and information obligations.


  • It is necessary to prove that the company has sufficient financial resources to guarantee that the project is viable.
