Transfer of employees from a group company abroad to Spain under the national ICT scheme.
Who it's for
Your group needs people in Spain — managers, specialists or trainee employees moving from an entity abroad to one here. The national ICT permit covers transfers where the employment relationship stays with the sending company. It runs through the UGE under Law 14/2013, which keeps timelines predictable for workforce planning, and family members can apply together with the transferee.
Key requirements
A genuine group relationship between the sending company and the Spanish entity.
A managerial, specialist or trainee role for the transferee in Spain.
Prior employment within the group, and a degree or three years of professional experience.
A maintained employment relationship and social security coverage during the transfer.
Requirements are summarised at a general level. Your lawyer confirms the exact list for your situation before anything is filed.
