Work permit in Spain is the administrative document that foreign citizens need to work in the country.

Regulation

The regulation for the work of foreigners in Spain is regulated by the Organic Law 14 / 2003, known as the Aliens Act, in which it provides for the following to enable foreign citizens to work in Spain.

Foreigners over 16 years of age who wish to engage in a profit-making, work or professional activity in Spain, on their own behalf or on their own behalf, must first obtain the appropriate administrative authorization to work.

This scheme shall not apply to nationals of the Member States of the European Union, to nationals of third States to whom the Community scheme applies, on the grounds of kinship, with the exception of nationals of the new States (except Cyprus and Malta) who joined the European Union on 1 May 2004, for the application of a transitional period of two years from that date by Spain.
