Hello

Its quite confusing while to fill the application form

What is the difference between Tarjeta de Residencia UE and Tarjeta de Residencia CE ?

As i know that,we can apply for Tarjeta de Residencia UE after 05 years of legal residence so , (after getting the card ) after next 05 years can we apply for spanish nationality (in total completion of 10 years) ?

Thank you

Hello,

Spanish nationality can be applied for after 10 years of legal residency. Therefore, after 5 years of holding long stay residency, you are entitled to apply.

I believe that you are confused, there is only one Tarjeta de residencia CE ( not UE ), that is the Tarjeta de residencia de larga duracion CE, that allows to live and work in any EU country as any other EU citizen.

Best Regards,
