Special regime for companies bringing audiovisual professionals to Spain.
Who it's for
You are producing in Spain, and the schedule will not wait for standard immigration timelines. The audiovisual regime exists for exactly that: it lets production companies bring non-EU artists, technicians and other audiovisual professionals to Spain through a simplified, fast-track procedure created under the 'Spain, Audiovisual Hub of Europe' plan. Different tracks apply depending on how long each engagement lasts, so we set the right structure for the production before anyone files.
Key requirements
A production or engagement contract in the audiovisual sector.
Accreditation of the production and of each professional's role in it.
The right track for the engagement's duration — short stays and longer residence follow different rules.
Standard identity, insurance and clean-record documentation.
Requirements are summarised at a general level. Your lawyer confirms the exact list for your situation before anything is filed.
How the process works
