About the Job Seeker Visa

The Job Seeker Visa allows foreign nationals to legally reside in Spain while searching for employment. This visa is designed for recent graduates and professionals who wish to explore job opportunities in the Spanish market without having secured a job offer beforehand.

This visa provides you with a 12-month period to find employment in Spain. Once you secure a job offer, you can transition to a standard work visa. The Job Seeker Visa is an excellent option for those who want to experience living in Spain while actively pursuing career opportunities.
