Employment
As a citizen of the EU, you can work in Spain without needing a specific work permit; however, you are required to register with local authorities if your stay lasts longer than three months.
Additionally, you need to get a NIE Number: The Spanish NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) is essential for everything from signing a lease to opening a bank account and working.
​
Employment contracts may be either permanent or temporary and registering for Social Security is necessary to access benefits (usually arranged by the employer). Salaries are taxed, and Spain has robust labor laws that safeguard workers' rights, including vacation and leave entitlements. While Spanish is the official language, English is frequently used in international firms. Job opportunities can be found through online job boards, employment agencies, or networking.
