          Living in Spain: formalities, children, work … Practical information

          February 18, 2019

          Spain is a dream, whether for holidays or for a long-term installation. The most obvious advantage to live in this country is its Mediterranean climate: temperatures are relatively high and rainfall is low (especially in the center and south of the country). The living environment is also very pleasant: the beautiful beaches and the natural landscapes are legions. Culturally, Spain is very rich and diverse, which is reflected on its gastronomy. Spaniards are quite hospitable to expatriates and the cost of living is lower than in countries like France, UK or Germany. If you want to live alone or with your family in Spain, here is what you need to know. Important considerations must be taken before you actually go there. Of course this has assumed you already have some basic requirements such as a passport, visa for Spain and travel expenses. Here are three important points that might give you an idea of the situation in Spain in general for foreigners who decide to stay there for a long time.
          Spanish culture
          You may have to adapt to Spanish culture. Spaniards are known to be cheerful and have a high sense of humor. The introduction of culture is certainly not limited to community character recognition. You need to learn Spanish or you will have many difficulties in your days there. Make sure you have mastered some basic vocabulary before arriving there.
          The steps to live in Spain
          To enter Spain when you are European, an identity card is enough. The card is strongly related to Spain residence permit. After three months, the expatriate has a new quarter if he has not found a job. When arriving in Spain, it is advisable to register in the Central Aliens Register at the Aliens Office or the police. The identity card and a tax will be requested. An alien identification number will then be given. It will be used for many administrative procedures. If the expatriate definitely wants to live in Spain, he must register with the town hall with a proof of address. To enter Spanish territory when you are European, an identity card is enough. Also find all the information to spend his retirement in Spain.
          Work in Spain
          Wages, standard of living, holidays … Not easy to navigate. With the crisis, the job market has tightened in Spain but some sectors still recruit a lot of people. We can mention the trades of the bilingual secretariat, and those related to international trade. Others are to be discouraged because they are highly regulated, such as the professions of teacher, biologist or industrial draftsman. Generally, jobs in Spain are not very well paid, and the minimum wage is lower than in UK, Germany and France, but the cost of living is lower: it is possible to get out of it. As part of an expatriation, make sure to negotiate with your company. If the transfer is the initiative of the company, it is possible to get a salary above the national average, leave days aligned with those of your country and even to finance your move.
          Schooling your children in Spain
          Schools, colleges and high schools approved by the Ministry of Education exist in Spain. They make it possible to follow a teaching in conformity and to have a schooling without break of the maternal to the terminal. Each institution manages its registration procedures. In general, tuition fees are required. Prepare your money because you might find some additional costs. But when compared, the education costs in Spain are relatively lower than the ones in Western European and Scandinavian countries.
