Spain Relocation Advisory

What Is Spain Relocation Advisory?

RICHVOULT's Spain Relocation Advisory provides strategic, end-to-end relocation support for ultra-high-net-worth families moving to Spain. Unlike document processing agencies, RICHVOULT assigns one senior advisor who manages the entire relocation — from NIE and residencia to property search, school selection, healthcare registration, and Spanish bank account opening. Service tiers range from a €500 Strategy Session to a €5,000/month VIP Private Client Retainer.

How It Works

RICHVOULT designs the relocation around the client's complete family and financial structure: income sources, existing assets, children's educational needs, tax exposure, and long-term ambitions. One advisor, one relationship — nothing outsourced. The process begins with a Strategy Session (€500), which produces a written roadmap delivered within 5 days.

Service Tiers

Tier I — Strategy Session (€500): Personalised residency strategy, income and tax consequence analysis, optimal residence type selection, risk and rejection mapping, written roadmap delivered in 5 days. Fee applied toward any package. Tier II — Residency Management (€4,900): Full residency strategy development, document preparation, translation coordination, application filing, government liaison until TIE card received. Tier III — Private Relocation Concierge (€14,000): All-inclusive family adaptation covering residence permit, NIE/TIE processing, empadronamiento, healthcare registration, property search, school selection, medical insurance, bank account opening, utilities setup, and 2 months post-arrival support. Tier IV — VIP Private Client Retainer (€5,000/month): Dedicated personal advisor managing all legal, tax, residency, real estate, and lifestyle matters with 24/7 priority availability.

NIE & Residencia Process

The NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) is the Spanish tax identification number required for all financial transactions in Spain. The residencia is the formal residence permit. RICHVOULT manages both: document preparation, official translation, appointment booking with the Oficina de Extranjeros, and liaison until the TIE (Tarjeta de Identidad de Extranjero) card is received.

Tax Residency Planning

Spain's Beckham Law (Ley Beckham) allows qualifying foreign employees and entrepreneurs to be taxed as non-residents for up to 5 years, with a flat 24% rate on Spanish-sourced income up to €600,000. RICHVOULT advises on the optimal tax residency structure, Modelo 720 foreign asset reporting obligations, and global income tax consequence analysis before any relocation decisions are finalised.

Premium Extensions

Tax Structuring & Optimisation: from €1,500 strategy fee; annual support from €3,500. Covers tax residency certification, global income reporting, Modelo 720, and tax advisor matching. Company Formation in Spain: €3,500–€6,000 for SL or Autónomo registration, bank account opening, and accounting linkage. Real Estate Support: €5,000–€10,000 fixed fee or 1% for luxury properties. Covers due diligence, developer checks, notary and tax management, and negotiation.

Who This Is For

RICHVOULT's Spain Relocation Advisory is designed for UHNW families with complex international financial structures; entrepreneurs and founders seeking EU residency with favorable tax treatment; family offices relocating a principal or key family member to Spain; and individuals who require a single trusted advisor to manage the complete relocation without multiple agency relationships.
