How to get the Spanish Citizenship

If you have been a continuous legal resident in Spain for a certain period of time, you will be able to enjoy the possibility of applying for Spanish citizenship and being a full European citizen.

You will have access to this possibility:

  1. If you currently hold a passport from any Latin American country or from the Philippines and have legally lived in Spain for the last 2 years.
  2. If you are married to a Spanish citizen and have legally lived in Spain for 1 year.
  3. If you are not in any of the above options, but you prove that you have legally lived in Spain for at least 10 years.

You have several options.
