We Moved Into Our Barcelona Apartment : Moving, Decorating, Furniture Building & Chaos
That’s a great video, thanks for the useful content. I have a somewhat specific question you may be able to help me with. Once your visa is approved and you move to Spain, would it be OK to make less than €2,500 in certain months while in Spain, or would that constitute a break of the visa conditions?
I would take Sant Gervasi over Gracia and Gracia over Sant Antoni. Everything after Diagonal and closer to mountains is better.
We are looking to live in Barcelona next June.. and travel to other locations. Madrid is beautiful but being by the ocean is a plus. We have been traveling to Europe for 3 straight years but now is to live there for 1 month.
I agree with the neighborhoods.. where can I find 1-2 month rentals? should I book a place for 6 months? I'm sure AirBNB is probably not ideal for short term rental.
I bumped into this video, don’t know why. Living here for 7 years and although I don’t know nowadays how much rooms cost, I can say that renting a studio/1 bedroom apartment start at 800€. If you want something decent, and don’t have too high expectations either, I would say with 1200€ you might be able to find something. These prices will different the more you go out of Barcelona. 1hr away in Terassa or Rubi with 900€ you can find 2bedroom flat in a new or renovated building. Just a little perspective.
I will sell the google voice
If I rent a whole apartment, does the agency/owner can still regulate the number of persons going to live just inside?
Yes because the people living in the apartment have to be on the lease unless previously discussed with the landlord but most don’t want you renting out rooms
If you are self employed American and have clients who are willing to pay your LLC, this is a way to access more of those US write offs while living in Spain because you will be paid through the LLC. I’ve been living here over a year as a digital nomad, and have found that creating an LLC, for my freelancing business has been the most optimized option.
thanks
I was one of the iraqi soldiers that fight in mosel and I insure you that there was no amarican troops the only role of amarica is give us an extra air sport But some times they bamed us 😅
I'm currently preparing for my DNV move, this is one of the most comprehensive and helpful tax video that I saw. Thank you, Christina!
which city the palatra is there in iraq
Go, Christina! You got it all right in 2024 w Spanish taxes!!! I've been here also for a year, plus under the DNV, Beckham is BS, LoL 😆
Amazing video thank you
Thanks this is so helpful! Does it matter when you register as an autonomo or does it only matter when you began earning income from within Spain? In other words, is there any benefit to delaying when you register a little bit? Or will you simply pay SS and tax from the moment you started earning in Spain anyway? Also, do you need to have your TIE card in hand before you can register as autonomo? Or can you do the two processes at the same time?
You need your TIE to register and you must register within 90 days of getting your TIE to avoid any penalties
there is a smoothie shop owned by an iraqi in my city in fl. a group of my friends and i went there and loved it. he didnt even make us pay until after we finished our snacks, and we ate outside. so we literally grabbed a bunch of smoothies and food and just... left to sit elsewhere lol. he had that much trust in us. this really endeared me to iraqi people
I am travelling there solo in October and I am counting the days!!! Thank you for this video!!
I’m totally not seeing 2 bedrooms at the prices you quoted after 4 months of looking … 2k + is a lot more realistic
I'm confused I thought US could come over to Spain on the DNV as an employee? I can't switch to 1099. I'm currently a W2...
Are you sure that autonomo tax is 20%? I am seeing different numbers on the internet
No that is only what you pay quarterly and then you pay the remaining percent at the end of the year
those empanadas are from argentina not Barcelona, there is an ocean of difference. Also nobody from Barcelona lives in the old center part (las ramblas, raval, born, etc.), that's a tourist part only with streets that smell like pee from the drunk tourists.
Yes I know empanadas are from Argentina. I said they are my fav snack when here because they are everywhere from the large Argentinian population here. Also agree, most people don’t live in the old town part long term. This is our place for two weeks while looking for our long term place which we found a few weeks later
Thank you for the detailed video.
Hello Christina , how they know exactly how much you are being paid ? Do we have to receive our payments in a spanish card if i got paid to my Chinese bank card, just wondering how they can be sure of how much exactly i got paid? also the payment has to be done from a company, if paid by a person to me is ok?
Taxes are cross checked between countries especially with audits. I made a new updated video on my page explaining more about taxes! Also, for the €2600/month requirement those have to be paid by established businesses such as an llc or something
thank you so much !
Question - do you have to charge your USA clients VAT? That's just for European/Spanish clients right?
Yes that’s correct you don’t charge US clients VAT!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS - SUPER HELPFUL! Great to have everything in one place - a lot of the information is out there but you really have to search and it's not all in one place like this. Great confirmation of what took me months to figure out on my own.
So happy you found it all helpful!!
Thank you very much for explaining all this! How does it work for those of us who use LLCs and work as contractors? I understand that Spain and the United States have an agreement to avoid double taxation
As the contractor you’d pay your taxes in Spain as you applied here “self employed”
Thanks for this! I'm just paying my first quarterly bill now. I would love to know more about any expenses you deduct. Also if you and your partner file together at the end of the year, does it lower your tax burden? Can you opt out of the social security / healthcare system after year 1? Lastly, who do you use to file quarterly?
I deduct all my platforms I pay for monthly to run my business as well as marketing costs, services I pay for, etc! I am not 100% sure on the joint vs single filing as I file on my own. As for SS, you can't opt out after year 1, its required while being a tax resident in Spain. I use Expat Advisers for my taxes!
Awesome video. Thank you so much for the honesty and the research! It’s quite intimidating as a freelancer. Would you say it’s still worth it to move here even with the high tax rates? Like does the cost of living offset it?
Compared to the US, it is definitely a lot less for cost of living. I’m so much happier and feel like I have the ability to do so much more socially here. I’m on my first year so I have the €80 / month discount for social security. After year 2 I will definitely evaluate more on comparing the costs!
@@christinadavisnomad amazing!
Thank you so much for all this information!!
Do you have any tips for people to find their own community/friends, especially for remotely working digital nomads?
thanks a lot for this video! your tips definitely will help me when i start to search for my apartment in BCN!
I am from Kazakhstan and really move to Spain!!!🫣
I am a Spaniard living in Orange County, CA. If I say to any American people what you are saying, they look at me with skepticism since for most of them nothing beats the US. The hardworking American people deserve a country that treats them better. Thank you so much Christina for your honesty!
Totally understand that haha I get skepticism when I say it as well, if only they knew!!
There's no free speech in in Spain. I guess you prefer communism.
Your videos are so good, thank you for giving us your honest insights about moving to Spain and to Barcelona. You are such a good content creator and please KEEP IT UP!
Rent prices and area name?
am i understanding that w2 employees can no longer apply even if the company is 100% remote? 😢
Yes sadly you can’t be a W2 employee, you must be 1099 / self employed
Do you have a video on the porting instructions? Insane a vid that said that you need to give google voice another number. Would that be the international number you’re using in another county or is it all wifi?
Wifi or data. You would need a local SIM card with data.
Spain is fantastic, much better than Italy or France. I'm working on going there as a digital nomad.
How does Barcelona and Madrid compare?
Hi Chris 😊 I like your videos Cab you talk about how you decided on Barcelona and if you looked at other cities before deciding there. Also can you talk about taxes Please and thank you Hopefully when I retire I will move somewhere in Europe - still doing research. But for now I am living vicariously thru you😊
What do you work at?
Question: I have my own company in the USA - my company invoices client for my services. Do I have to go to every client and ask for their company corporate documents? Or do I just need to provide my own company corporate documents as proof of existence for one year?
If you have clients that you have continuous work with you can actually get the company documents from the state websites they are in. I was able to find all my clients documents on my own without bothering them since they are public documents!
@christinadavisnomad I heard the lawyer says your client company documents have to be appostiled? Is that necessary? If so how to get them apostiled without bothering the client.
@@farhanwarraich1392I didn’t have to get those apostilled but it may have changed now. I’m not sure where you are from but in the US business registration documents are all public documents so I went on the government website for the states the business was in and looked them up and was able to download them without bothering my clients
Do you know how capital gains tax work in Spain compared to the US?

It does have its good things, but I definitely think it is not what it used to be anymore... would not recommend... I'm planning to move out from here very soon. I would say choose a different location.
Crime on the rise. Try other cities that are safer and more affordable like Málaga.
