Spain’s Digital Nomad Visa income threshold has increased to €2,849 per month following the country’s latest minimum wage adjustment.

According to updated regulations under Royal Decree 126/2026, Spain raised the national minimum wage (SMI) by 3.1 percent.

As the Digital Nomad Visa income requirement is calculated at 200 percent of the SMI, the minimum monthly income for a single applicant has risen from €2,763 in 2025 to €2,849 in 2026.

## Updated Financial Requirements

Applicants must now demonstrate:

- €2,849 per month for the main applicant
- An additional €916 for the first dependent
- An additional €305 for each further dependent

These thresholds reflect the visa’s structure, which scales income requirements based on family size.

## What This Means for Applicants

The updated threshold reflects Spain’s wage-linked framework rather than a policy shift targeting remote workers.

The Digital Nomad Visa remains available to eligible professionals earning income from outside Spain, offering a structured pathway to residency within the EU.
