Frequently Asked Questions about Temporary Residence for Social Arraigo in Spain

It is an exceptional residence permit in Spain granted to foreign nationals who can demonstrate continuous stay in the country and/or proven social and employment integration.

You must have continuously resided in Spain for at least 2 years before submitting your application.

Yes, but absences cannot exceed 90 calendar days in total within the two-year period.

No. One of the requirements is not being an applicant for international protection.

  • You are considered an applicant from the moment you express your intention to request protection.

  • If you withdraw your application, from that moment the calculation of the required period of stay resumes for arraigo purposes.

It is a temporary residence permit granted on exceptional grounds that a foreign national in Spain may apply for when they can prove family ties or, alternatively, provide a social integration report.

The regulation recognizes the following family members:

  • A spouse or registered partner.

  • First-degree relatives in the direct line (parents or children).

In that case, you may apply for social arraigo by submitting a social integration report, issued by the regional government or local town hall where you live, certifying your integration efforts.

Yes. In both cases (family ties or integration), you must prove that you have sufficient financial means available in Spain.
This requirement is considered met if you can demonstrate at least 100% of the IPREM (Public Indicator of Multiple Purpose Income).

Yes, in the case of family ties, the financial means may come from the relative with whom you prove the relationship, provided they have legal residence in Spain and live with you.

In this case, you must prove:

  • 100% of the IPREM for the legally resident family member.

  • 100% of the IPREM for the arraigo applicant.
    In total, the requirement amounts to 200% of the IPREM, regardless of how many people live in the household.

The same rules as family reunification apply, according to Article 67.1 of the Immigration Regulations:

  • Sponsor + family member: 150% IPREM.

  • Each additional member: 50% extra IPREM.

  • Minors: parent + minor: 110% IPREM.

  • Each additional minor: 10% extra IPREM.

In those cases, the rules of family reunification apply, meaning the parent must prove at least 110% of the IPREMtogether with the minor.
