A Spain work permit is an authorisation that lets someone from outside the EU live in Spain and work for a Spanish employer. It is usually tied to a specific job offer, and the employer plays a key role in the application.
There are several routes. Some roles need proof that no suitable local candidate was found, while jobs on official shortage lists, highly qualified positions and certain other cases follow faster paths. Picking the right route first saves a lot of time.
You can work legally for your employer, with a contract, a salary and access to the social security system.
The permit comes with residence in Spain and a TIE card.
When renewed, the permit can give you more flexibility to change employer or sector.
Once you have held residence for the required time, you can apply to bring close family.
Answer a few questions about your situation. Specialists who handle this exact application send you offers with their fees and timelines, and you choose who to work with.
Requirements depend on the route, but most applications involve the following.

A specialist checks the job, your profile and the employer to choose the route with the best chance.
The employer usually submits the work authorisation request to the immigration office.
Once authorised, you request the work visa at the Spanish consulate where you live.
After arriving, you register with social security when you start the job.
You book a fingerprint appointment and collect your residence card.
A general overview of the work a specialist usually takes on for this service.
In most cases you need a job offer first. The employer applies for the work authorisation in Spain, and once it is approved you apply for the work visa at a Spanish consulate before travelling.
Spain has a job search visa for some situations, for example certain graduates or people with roots in Spain. A specialist can confirm whether you qualify or whether another route fits better.
It means the employer takes part in your application, usually by filing the work authorisation and providing company documents. Without an employer willing to do this, most work routes are closed.
The first permit is often linked to a specific job. After renewal you usually get more freedom, and in some cases you can apply to modify the permit sooner.
