Regimen Comunitario outside Spain

Hi,
I got Regimen Comunitario tarjeta by marriage. But I don't live or work in Spain or any EU country.

1. What is the maximum duration that i can stay outside Spain without losing my Regimen Comunitario residency?

2. And what if i exceeded that duration?

3. What if i exit from another schengen country so that the spanish airport will not check my passport/tarjeta and will not update the exit date in the spanish authority system?

Thanks.

Hello Islam,

If you are out from Spain for more than 12 consecutive months, your residence status will be cancelled. You would have to file a new application and start the whole process again. Regarding the last question,the Spanish authorities can find out you were out of Spain if they wish.

Regards,
