Free Immigration & Visa Tools for Expats in Spain

Moving to or spending time in Spain means dealing with rules that are easy to get wrong: how long you can stay, which visa fits your situation, what you’ll owe in tax. These free, interactive tools do the hard part for you — no downloads, no sign-up to get an answer. They’re built and reviewed by an immigration law firm in Barcelona that works every day with English-speaking expats from the UK, the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

The Tools

Schengen 90/180 Day Calculator

Check how many visa-free days you have left in the Schengen area, and whether your next trip stays within the 90-day limit. Essential for anyone visiting Spain without a residence permit. → Open the Schengen calculator

More tools on the way

We’re adding tools regularly. Coming soon:

🔹Spanish nationality timeline — find out when you can apply, based on your nationality and years of legal residence.

🔹Self-employed (autónomo) cost estimator — estimate your monthly social-security contribution under Spain’s income-based system.

🔹US–Spain double-taxation guide — see how living in Spain affects your US tax obligations.

🔹Which visa fits me? — a short quiz that points you to the right route for your situation.

Why use these tools

Immigration and tax rules in Spain change often, and the details matter: a miscounted day at the border or the wrong visa route can cost you real money and time. Each tool here reflects the rules as they currently stand and is maintained by practising immigration lawyers — not scraped from generic travel blogs. They’re designed to give you a clear, honest starting point, and to tell you plainly when your situation needs professional advice rather than a calculator.

Need more than a tool can tell you?

If your case is complex — a borderline stay, an unclear visa route, a tax question that spans two countries — a short consultation will save you far more than it costs.

  I had an amazing experience working with NIM Extranjería on my student permit extension. I worked with Carmen in particular, and she was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. She was always available, incredibly responsive, and provided clear, expert guidance at every step. Her support made what could have been a stressful situation feel smooth and manageable. I highly recommend NIM Extranjería—and especially Carmen—for anyone needing reliable and professional immigration assistance.

  I cannot say enough good things about this team! From the very beginning, Carmen has been extremely helpful throughout my entire DNV process, staying on top of all my appointments and always answering my many, many questions quickly.

Working with NIM Extranjeria has made this process so much smoother than it ever would have been if I tried handling everything on my own, and I am so appreciative of their service and attention. I would highly recommend working with them!
