Spanish Non-Lucrative Visa Renewals
If you already have a Spanish Non-Lucrative Visa, you can apply to renew your residence permit from within Spain through the relevant immigration office (Extranjería). Renewals are generally granted for two years at a time.
When should you renew your Non lucrative visa?
You can submit your renewal up to 60 days before your current residence authorisation expires, or within 90 days after expiry. Applying late may lead to a penalty, so it is best to apply before your permit runs out.
What do you need to renew your non lucrative visa?
Proof of funds: Enough money to support yourself and any dependants for the full two-year renewal period.
Private health insurance: Continued cover that meets the requirements.
Valid passport: A copy of your complete, current passport.
Application form: Completed form EX-01 and proof of payment of the relevant fee.
School enrolment: Evidence that children of compulsory school age are enrolled in school, where applicable.
You must also have genuinely lived in Spain for more than 183 days during the relevant calendar year. Your renewal application should include evidence of your financial means and health insurance.

Once your renewal is approved, you must arrange an appointment to provide fingerprints and obtain your new Foreigner Identity Card (TIE).
