Spanish nationality procedure
Obtain Spanish nationality legitimately
The Spanish nationality procedure is the legal procedure that allows foreigners to obtain Spanish nationality, granting them the same rights and duties as Spanish citizens.
In Esteche Lawyers In Madrid, we offer specialized assistance to guide our clients through this process successfully.
Requirements for the legitimate processing of Spanish nationality
1. Legal residence in Spain
You must have legally resided in Spain for a continuous period prior to the application. This period varies depending on the specific circumstances (generally 10 years, 2 years for citizens of Ibero-American countries, 1 year for refugees, etc.).
2. Knowledge of Spanish language and culture
You must prove that you have a sufficient level of knowledge of the Spanish language and Spanish culture. This can be done by passing an exam (DELE A2 or higher) and another exam on constitutional and sociocultural knowledge of Spain (CCSE).
3. Good civic conduct
You must not have been convicted of a serious crime in Spain or in your country of origin during the period of residence.
4. Additional documentation
Include a valid passport, a criminal record certificate from your country of origin and from the countries where you have resided during the last five years, and any other documentation that proves your residence and ties to Spain.
