Renewal or modification: what's the difference

The basis of your permit is the reason you were granted it: work, a business, savings or family. If it hasn't changed, you need a renewal; if it has, a modification.

Residence permit renewal

The basis stays the same: you keep working, running your business or living on the same terms you got the permit on — you just need to extend its validity.

  • checkSame job or same clients
  • checkSame status and same business
  • checkSame terms of residence

Residence permit modification

The basis changes: your job, autónomo status or business has changed, and your current basis of residence may no longer be enough.

  • swap_horizA change in your professional activity
  • swap_horizBecoming autónomo or leaving autónomo status
  • swap_horizSwitching to employment and back
  • swap_horizOpening, closing or restructuring a company
  • swap_horizA different basis is needed because your circumstances changed

Switched to autónomo? After the modification we can also handle your bookkeeping.

Professional gestorías work on your case

    We check and file tax returns ourselves — they're looked at when you renew.

What documents you need to renew a residence permit

Some documents are needed by everyone. The rest depend on the basis of your permit: work, autónomo, savings or family. Your gestor will put together the exact list for your situation in a personal checklist.

Needed by everyone

  • Passport

    Valid, with all pages.

  • Current TIE card

    The one you're renewing.

  • Renewal application

    We prepare it.

  • Government fee

    Paid separately, not included in the package price.

Depend on the basis of your permit

  • Proof of income or savings

    Employees and Digital Nomad — contract and statements. Autónomo and Startup — tax returns. Non‑Lucrative — bank statements.

  • No-debt certificates

    If you work in Spain: from the tax office (AEAT) and Seguridad Social.

  • Health insurance

    If you don't have public health cover through work.

  • Proof of family ties

    If your permit is for family reunification.

Frequently asked questions

How much does residence permit renewal in Spain cost?add

Renewal — €790 + VAT (€165.90), modification — €1,290 + VAT (€270.90). The price is fixed. Government fees are paid separately.

What's the difference between renewal and modification?add

Renewal — if the basis of your permit hasn't changed: same job, business or living conditions. Modification — if your job, status or business has changed and you need a different basis.

What documents do I need to renew my residence permit?add

Your passport, current TIE, the application and documents that prove your basis. The exact list depends on the basis — your gestor will make a personal checklist from your documents.

When should I apply to renew my residence permit?add

Within the 2 months before your permit expires. You can also apply within 3 months after (for Digital Nomad and Startup — 90 days), but with a risk of a fine. If you apply on time, your permit stays valid while the application is being processed.

I missed my renewal deadline. What should I do?add

If less than 3 months have passed (for Digital Nomad and Startup — 90 days), you can still apply, though a fine is possible. If more — you need a strategy: book a specialist consultation.

My renewal was refused. Can you help?add

We'll go through your situation in a specialist consultation — with a gestor or a lawyer — and suggest the next step.

I've changed employers. Do I need a renewal or a modification?add

It depends on your permit and what exactly has changed. Answer the two questions in the package chooser or book a free consultation.

Do you guarantee a positive decision?add

No. The decision is made by the state: the Oficina de Extranjería, or UGE for Digital Nomad and Startup. We're responsible for checking every document, making sure the set is complete, preparing and filing the application, and we support your case until the decision.

Are government fees included in the price?add

No, fees are paid separately. We'll note in the checklist which ones and when.

Can you handle my autónomo bookkeeping after the renewal?add

Yes. If you're autónomo, after the renewal or modification we can handle your bookkeeping: quarterly and annual returns, contributions and chat with your gestor. Plans — Basic €80 / month + VAT (€16.80) and Pro €130 / month + VAT (€27.30). The documents gathered for your permit will already be in your cabinet.

How are you different from an immigration agency?add

We work for a fixed package price, not by the hour: a client cabinet with a checklist, chat with your gestor, and professional gestorías handle the documents and the application. A paid specialist consultation is only needed in complex cases.

Residence permit and autónomo bookkeeping in one cabinet

If you're autónomo, after the renewal we can also handle your bookkeeping. That way everything is in one place, and your next renewal starts with your history ready.

  • Basic€80 / month + VAT (€16.80)
  • Pro€130 / month + VAT (€27.30)
