Foreign nationals working in Spain typically need a combined work and residence permit, with few exceptions for EU, EEA, or Swiss citizens who can work freely under freedom of movement rules. The Spanish Ministry of Inclusion, Social Security and Migration—along with regional immigration offices—oversees work permit compliance and approvals.

Many companies partner with a Spain Employer of Record (EOR) or Spain PEO to streamline visa processing, manage work and residence permits, and ensure legal compliance for hassle-free hiring.
