Hi there,
My partner and I are starting the process of applying for a visa to reside in Spain. We work together, self-employed, and make all of our income online. Our company (mailing address) is based in the USA. I am confused about the non-lucrative visa and "exempt" from work requirement. Does this mean that the monthly income cannot come from any type of economic activity? We do not plan to work for a Spanish company but do plan to work for our USA based company while living abroad.
Maybe I am reading into this too much, but I have seen many posts stating you cannot engage in economic activity in Spain while residing in Spain. I wanted to make sure which visa would best suit us before beginning the process.
Any guidance is very much appreciated.
Emily
