It’s normal - you can’t just move to another country unless you have plenty of money to support yourself, you can’t be a burden - I’m a dual citizen EU & American - thank goodness ❤

I’m planning on moving to France and have been working on my planning budget This info has confirmed that I’ve considered all the important bits (at French prices, which are a bit lower for the area I’m targeting) Thank you for this detail!
Comment from : @lollygee172

Is better to just go visit for a month and return home No need to spend all that money
Comment from : @Omar-tu9qf

James, you are REALLY helpful and incredibly good at what you do (Kiwi power ;) Thank you for being up-to-date with all aspects of moving to Spain - I'm planning a 2026 move - hope they don't change the IPREM!!

Can you do the costs to move to italy from uk ?
Comment from : @gabriellerochelle4367

What about uk people?
Comment from : @gabriellerochelle4367

Do yourself a favour Learn to speak some basic Spanish before you go It’ll save you a load of money and hassle There will always be ex pats or locals that speak English to “help” getting an NIE etc it’s easy if you can speak just a little I used the Michel Thomas course I’m far from fluent but can converse

Comment from : @carolinebarnewall4658

Do you have a video regarding moving your pets to spain as well?
Comment from : @eddieortiz1224

Do you have a video (or can you talk about the topic) of dual nationality, and two passports, parents from two countries, travel, rules about staying in either country etc? Ideally UK / Spain though can be other countries too Thanks!
Comment from : @ebb115

Always really value cost of living videos Especially for people on a modest budget Thanks, James

How do you use a hotel or air bnb for an address on your visa application ?
Comment from : @margaretcersosimo181

Why not china?
Comment from : @thepapervigilante2208

You said total of moving is 13 hundred instead of thousand
Comment from : @kenbray4833

A $600,000 price tag for a house said it all—I didn’t even need to factor in the refurbishing costs The video focuses on how much you need to get by, but it seems more relevant to married couples with children and a hefty financial cushion SeriouslybrbrThat said, the presentation was, as always, highly professional, and it felt like every stone was turned in pursuit of more insight Honestly, moving to Spain is starting to look like a financial sinkhole I believe the housing issues are largely a product of government policiesbrbrWhen I arrive soon under the NLV, at least I won’t have to worry But really—I just about fell out of my chair at those prices!brbrCheers!🐉
Comment from : @lloza3

Hmm , €13380 is not thirteen hundred euros
Comment from : @hrcsourcingltd7858

Good, informative video Thank you
Comment from : @the_realist

When shipping home goods to ex Spain, figured cost at 15,000, but does it include cost to pick up or ship from port to new home and or how to arrange that and approximate import tax, fees etc?any further thoughts on costs once items reach port of entry?
Comment from : @estelladog1

Yes, please keep doing these!

I Pay 75 euros to my asesor annually to declare my income to the agencia tributaria
Comment from : @bodee591

Shipping stuff from US will be costly ofcourse, but remember that if you just travel there with two suitcases, you'll have to rebuy it all in Spain and especially furniture can be costly too if you don't just want to conform yourself with IKEA stuff
Comment from : @donarmando916

Loads mega bucks Spain loooove your money it’s never ending !
Comment from : @heavenlymermaid2192

Please don't move to Spain The housing price is on the roof because everybody wants to live here Just let us be
Comment from : @rober1873

Most of the videos on Youtube about moving to Spain is only for non EU residents I wonder if someone can make a video for EU residents
Comment from : @CookingwithYarda

This seems really expensive compared to the wage there?
Comment from : @zandrarichardson5084

Great content and very useful, especially the ball park park living expenses Ps Seville is the capital of Andalusia rather than Malaga!
Comment from : @michaelmulcahy2277

Thank you very helpful I wished you could add kids expenses to the video
Comment from : @MrAhmedfouda

It sounds more expensive than what I have anticipated
Comment from : @MrAhmedfouda

Good info
Comment from : @tral403Hrytw

I'm a UK citizen and Brexit destroyed my plans to retire to Mallorca, in short, NLV is a no go , my plan was to semi retire to offset my costs but the NLV doesn't allow that nor do I have the passive income, and so the end of my lifetime plan
Comment from : @stephenmayers4033

Allo what would be the minimum per month for electricity if no one at home?
Comment from : @user-yy3vd9vx7y

It's all relative as in any country, if you have plenty of money you can buy in a good area if you don't have much money your looking of out the way palaces The same as in your own country Rose tinted glasses holidays are way different to living and the the language
Comment from : @davesears5855

To move to Spain you only need however much the plane ticket costs
Comment from : @Neo-c5v

Spain doesn’t want us there I agree with them Even though I will miss visiting there It’s a beautiful country
Comment from : @jasenjahn

Hoping to find an internship in Spain next year that can get me set up with a work visa leading into a contract Once that's done, my mom will come in on the NLV and we'll sell our house 👍
Comment from : @PolarisMidnightSoldierLux

I moved to Spain from California in 2019, 25,000€ in a bank account per year for a non lucrative visa plus proof of private health insurance 78€ month for a man my age Cost of living in Alicante approx 2k per month nicely living by the coast ! There’s no secret to it !!
Comment from : @mz_962

How about not moving to Spain at all - but just living there on a month to month basis, keeping all your insurances and health benefits at home Saves the trouble of moving, allows you to check out different cities and you won't have to encounter all the traps and perils of bureaucracy while trying to register yourself in a foreign country you don't really know yet
Comment from : @JP212nyc

Is the savings or passive income for a non-lucrative visa required half for a single person of what a couple's savins or passive income is? And what about the cost of health insurance for a single person?
Comment from : @steveflatbush

what if non-eu citizen wants to move by entering a university in Sp ?
Comment from : @netsonmusic

You should lower the bass of the background music Its annoying
Comment from : @jeffrankin7624

The financial requirement of (IPREM X 4) is that for net income or Gross income? This is something I've been trying to get an answer on for quite some time Can you respond?
Comment from : @eugenioolazabal1867

Thank you for this video I was left an apartment by a family member (so no rent or mortgage) My wife and I have decent permanent jobs with savings total of 300,000 What approach would you suggest for us both to move to Valencia without jobs but looking into teaching English? My wife is fluent in Spanish Thank you again
Comment from : @seamusomurchadha2620

These costs are pony, you can do it for a lot less
Comment from : @stephenbower2885

So the couple couldn't work remotely in the US but live in Spain? If they had the non-lucrative visa? Or is it that you just can't work remotely in Spain?
Comment from : @bronwynbeistle8317

Sounds very expensive to me
Comment from : @kevincooper8666

Is it different if you have an European passport?

How much does the course cost, and why don’t you share that on your website?
Comment from : @BuckeyeNut64

With a non lucrative visa are you allowed to purchase a home?
Comment from : @StayWildWanderlust

Is your course suitable for someone moving to one of the Canary Islands?brbrAlso, regarding the visas, do you need one if you have an EU passport?
Comment from : @jayplays568

Please do a video on getting a visa as a worker
Comment from : @bluedancelilly

Comment from : @malcrouch8500

Thanks James We rented an apartment in Valencia this year and was interested to find out from your video that the one month real estate fee is no longer legal Can you advise please on the exact date this law came into effect? Many thanks
Comment from : @vourakes

Comment from : @OnlyThe1Son

Its a really informative video but the background music is really distracting If you are talking kill the music
Comment from : @19kickboxer68

Spain is for vacation , not for living
Comment from : @MrFernanrc

Feliz Navidad! I hope you and the family are doing well! Always love your videos; thank you! I wanted to ask if you could do a video on a specific topic that many of my Spanish friends and family are talking about, which is dual nationality, especially if you have a husband/wife/partner who is not Spanish and/or if you have a child with parents from Spain and another country (which is not South America and countries on the list of dual nationality) Is there a way around it? There are many different answers out there; I would love your take as it might also apply to your family Happy holidays and 2025
Comment from : @ombarcelonahealth

According to this video , I think 3000 a month is not enough to live there
Comment from : @gabrielemcnicholl6174

Good luck on the move, Brian and Gene 💃☕️🤣

Much more interested in what American retirees will be required to pay taxes in Spain every year when one is a resident of Spain Otherwise, leave before one is considered a resident and return a few months ago
Comment from : @ElsaSimaan

THis was from the USA TO Spain Clickbait
Comment from : @rbgsa

#1st world budget Although I agree with the numbers in this video, keep in mind there are millions of 3rd world immigrants moving to Europe with their life savings that are less than 1k, perhaps 2-5k max Do they struggle? brOf course, but they still survive and make it work in the end
Comment from : @thecheekymonkey8785

A 2BR in Huelin Malaga would’ve cost 600-900 pre pandemic Malaga is absolutely exploding
Comment from : @AdventureElliot

why dont you just say that moving to spain you have to have a lot of money cut the bull shit dude 😂😂😂
Comment from : @alejandropena498

This is a very toxic immigration, rich americans or europeans provokes gentrification, increase prices, makes money over local people's heads, and don't participate in the country's efforts, like work, and local economy
