Quick guide
Can I work in Spain with my residence authorization?
Not all residence authorizations allow you to work under the same conditions. The possibility of working and its conditions depend on the type of authorization and each person’s specific situation.
It depends on your authorization
Each permit has its own conditions. It is important to check exactly what your authorization allows and whether limits apply.
Your specific situation matters
The right path depends on your personal, professional and documentary situation before starting work.
