Yes, it can, eventually. As a first step, on order to become eligible to apply for Spanish Permanent Residency, you’ll have to reside in Spain for at least 6 months per year for 5 uninterrupted years. After you’ve then held Spanish Permanent Residency status for a period of 5 years (after 10 years in total), you can then become eligible to apply for Spanish citizenship.

If you don’t, however, your Spanish Golden Visa can simply be renewed. Contact us for more information on this topic now.
