You DO need a permit both for residence and for work; that's required for all of the European Union, and will be valid for ALL of the European Union. Some European countries have special regulations about that, so be careful. But once you're a legal immigrant to one of the EU states, you'll have little problems in other ones. (I say "little" because immigration laws vary from one EU country to the other. Please don't think the European Union is something like the USA, with federal states and "one nation" under whatever. We all speak different languages, and there are different legal rules in each country.)

You need a permit, and they are difficult to come by, as are jobs, these days. Spain just recently entered a recession. A lot depends, of course, on what you want to do. Here's a list of organizations that help place people in jobs. The good ones will place you, make sure you have a work permit, and help you locate housing (as in, they give you a list of housings, and you pick, interview, and decide on one or none and find your own, but they'll get you started.) I don't actually know any of these companies, I just did a search and kept the url. http://search.yahoo.com/search?ei=utf-8&fr=slv8-hptb6&p=work%20in%20Spain&type=

Short-term work in Spain
Short-term work in Spain?
Hi, Have roughly 3 months to kill, and am considering going somewhere in Spain and finding short-term employment there. I speak good Spanish, as well as Italian and English fluently; I'm an EU citizen; I've got a TEFL certificate and experience as a TEFL teacher. Hell, I've even got an MA...I just want to do something with myself for these upcoming months rather than waste time in my home country. Would I be able to simply walk into a bar/language school/restaurant/hotel and find work? My city of preference would be Barcelona, but am open to Madrid, Valencia, whatever - don't know if I'm more likely to find work in one rather than the other. Any help guys/girls? :) Thanks

You should have no problem getting bar work here, but the wages will be less than somewhere like the UK. You will probably have to work long hours and at times when people want to be served. Many bars here stay open until the last customer goes home. If you are from the UK you could try the area around Torrevieja. There are more Brits there than Spaniards. Everywhere you go there are bars and restaurants. It isn´t a very classy place though. I live in rural Spain. I doubt you´d get work here as there aren´t the jobs. Barcelona & Madrid may be expensive for accommodation but best of luck anyway.

Why not???? Go to Spain, you can work as teacher, these 3 cities are nice but also San Sebastian is nice and is close to Francia, You can do many things there, Good luck y diviertete

I don't think you do have to pay tax when you work offshore, you don't when you work on cruise ships, so long as you have your paperwork in order and can prove this is the case, it might be OK. However, I would do as much research on this as you can or call and speak to an accountant in the UK to find out your rights.

David, Are you from an EU member country? If so you can transfer all your health and social security benefits / history to Spain. A residents card would be useful and is easily available at very little cost. If not then youy´ll need to convice the Spanish embassy in your country that a working visa is good for Spain. You´ll have to sell your skills and profession to them. Ok, so you now need to find a job; If you speak Spanish look through the following spanish job sites; infojobs.net monster.es michaelpage.com If you don´t speak spanish, go to the same sites and only complete the search box with "ENGLISH". This will bring up english job options. You really need a minimum of two CV´s; 1 in English 1 in Spanish (with or without photo) However it is better to have tailored CV´s accenting different facets of your work history and responsibilities. Your final option is to look in your own country for job opportunities with relocation to Spain. Hope that helps! http://www.madrid-guide-spain.com

wouldn;t bother even considering living in Spain. Its not the place painted on the TV or what you see on holidays for two weeks at a time. The place as a whole, is going downhill, I have seen this decline over the last 3.5 years. The bars and restuarantas are not doing very well with many really struggling to survive the summer, let alone the winter. You cannot buy the same level of goods here as you can in the UK, there are so many rip offs and scames going with regard to buying property too, with many estate agents being rip off merchants and over charging horrendously. Many homes are up for sale and not selling, prices are begining to fall and those who have mortgages will soon be in a negative equity position, many not even selling through estate agents because of the fees. Taxes are frequent, while the equivalent of the council tax may not be much, inheritance tax is a big issue, its payable within 6 months of death and kicks in after 15k€ not the several hundred thousand pounds you're all moaning about in the UK! You can't sell the property to pay the taxes either! 50% of new build homes are not selling and 9% of the housing stock is empty, people are being sold the dream of a property in the eastern side of europe from here now as they know the market is done here. prices of food and fuel are much the same as the Uk but wages considerably lower! So in the long term its more expensive to live here. Its all very well coming for two weeks and thinking its great, it not, its dull, and dead, shops dont open 24/7 and they only have sunday opening during the high season, thats if youpre on the coast as well! Its hard being here and I can;t wait to be able to get out... You will also be subjected to stacks of red tape and blatant racism as there is a huge resentment of the spanish towards the english as its the english thats built this place up, pricing the spanish out of many things.....you ownt get work for a spanish company unless you are completely fluent, dont even consider coming here to be a plasterer or builder, the place is saturated completely and they are all struggling for a bit of work, undercutting each other and almost working for nothing....

For Italy 1) you may need no more than to get your degree recognized by Ministero della Sanità .

Hi, the website for the Spanish embassy has very detailed documents on applying for a work visa. Do a google search for Spanish Embassy (nearest major city) and you'll find the local website for one of their consulates or perhaps the embassy itself if you are in the D.C. area. What they won't tell you is that to work in the EU you have to have corporate sponsership and you really need an attorney that specializes in work visas. The exceptions to this are for low-paying positions (aux pares), work/study programs, etc. For any position paying more then 30K euros you'll need to get some kind of sponsership. The reason is that an entity in Spain must pay for and sign some documents and forms to get you on into the Spanish system. Once you have this it's all paperwork and you'll be in Spain working within 3 months.

There is so much to see and do there, that you will find yourself short of free time to visit the wonders of the city. And from there you have the rest of Europe at your doorstep! In Spain, once you start working, you automatically have medical coverage by the social security. (you will have to get a spanish social security card.) Taxes are not as high as in the rest of Europe, cost of living has gone up, but no worse than every where else. If you think you would enjoy the change DO IT! Spain is marvelous...(I've lived here 34 years and still haven't seen everything!) My son is in the same field as you, and he has worked in London, Luxembourg, Dublin, and is now in Grenoble, France... Variety is the spice of life in your field...Don't pass up the chance for good experience...It'll look wonderful on your curriculum. I have a godson, also in the same field...He IS from Barcelona...and just found a great job in Paris...so you never know. You may become addicted to Europe . Whatever you decide I wish you good luck!

What trades will allow me to work in America or abroad
What trades will allow me to work in America or abroad?
Im 20 living in england and finding it really had to get a job. Last year i worked in spain for 6 month doing bar work and loved it as i love to travel. But i think it is really important for me to get a trade im interested in plumbing or paint and decorator. Will any of these trades allow me to work in say the U.S.A or australia or europe if not what trades will?

A degree is a mininum with a Master or a PhD being better .. there are no requirements in the US for unskilled labor ...
2 :
There is no trade that would qualify you for immigration. People in the US would kill for a job in the trades. There just aren't enough to go around. You need to be in a profession to qualify for immigration, and it has to be one that we have a shortage of. If you are a doctor, engineer, or computer scientist, you have a chance.
3 :
alot of trades will as long as you're legal and if there are any jobs available (jobs are tight now)

As with most EU countries, there's a long, paperwork intensive process. A generalized guide is below, but if she's serious then she'll have to get some work experience and apply for the relevant visas. Perhaps a Spanish lawyer would be the way to go.

Sure, if you have a Spanish work visa.
2 :
If you have a British passport you can work in Spain without a VIsa, as it's part of the EU along with the UK
3 :
Having a UK pass port allows you to live and work in any of 28 EU countries. No visa necessary. Just fly over, have a look around, and decide where you would like to live and work. Simple as that.
4 :
If you hold a U.K. passport which denotes "British Citizen" you may go and live and work in the other 26 EU countries, and in Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland http://ec.europa.eu/eures/main.jsp?acro=lw&lang=en&catId=490&parentId=0 .to include Spain.

It's hard to find a job in Spain now due to the economical crisis. If you're in Palma I think your best chance is to working on a Hotel or something related to tourism. You don't need to have a Tourism certificate or something. Maybe if you speak good English and you can get by in Spanish it's enough for that. This website is for working as a tourist animator on Hotels in Spain, I'm sure there are a wide range of possibilities for Majorca. http://www.ociokonsulting.com/ Another website for working in Hotels http://empleo.trovit.es/ofertas-empleo/work-mallorca Good luck!

Good luck! As Salva said, you are running up to the economic crisis...things are pretty much worse in Spain than anyplace else, from what I'm reading...bad everywhere. Most people look at bars, restaurants, and if you speak English, teaching English.

Moving to Spain to work for 6 weeks....what to take
Moving to Spain to work for 6 weeks....what to take?
I have just found out i'm off to Spain to work for 6 weeks - staying in a hotel. This is my first real time moving out as such as i'm 18 and i'm in a panic as to what I will and won't need. I have all the basics sorted like clothes but I don't know what else as 6 weeks is a lot longer than my 2 week holidays! Any ideas as to things I could easily forget but would come in very useful?

Phone numbers Addresses Extra pajamas Medication Cell phone charger Proper Identification Batteries Spanish dictionary Umbrellas Walking Shoes Foreign Language Phrase Books Sunscreen Backpacks Sunglasses Camera Video Camera Shower cap Locks on luggage There are several important items which you shouldn't leave for Spain without, the most obvious being your passport (or ID card) and travel documentation. Take photocopies of your passport, travel documentation, insurance, tickets and credit card numbers and keep them separate from the originals (or send the details to a secure email account) in case they are lost or stolen and you need to give this information to the police. In Spain it is a legal requirement to carry some form of identification - this can be your passport or another form of photographic ID. Before leaving for Spain make an appointment with your GP to check whether you need any vaccinations or boosters for your trip. It is also a good idea to visit your dentist for a check up - the last thing you want is toothache or other dentistry dramas disrupting your trip to Spain. Have a safe trip to Spain.

Camera may be useful, you will love Spain. What city are you going to?
3 :
Well, not sure where you live now but if coming from USA you will need one of those electrical outlet convertors. How about a towel ((beach))? Alarm clock?
4 :
everything seems to have been covered so far, but I would just like to add that the clothing that you bring should reflect all weather conditions - not just the blazing Sun - especially if you are coming before the end of April, otherwise you are likely to get caught out. If you are bringing a cell phone from home ask your service provider if you can pay a small monthly surcharge for 50% off your international calls as this will save you a small fortune, or if you are feeling brave don't bring your cell phone and instead buy a pre-paid phone card as these work out quite competetive.

Do you have a visa that enables you to work? If not, then no, you cannot work in Spain for any time period.
2 :
Not even for a day unless you have a valid work visa and passport. Don't even try this if you have no visa, you will end up at a Spanish jail.
3 :
As long as you have a working permit you may work 3 months or +
4 :
This question can answer you the embassy or a counsolate of Spain. Entering the European Union on a turist visa you are NOT allowed to work.
