How to migrate to Spain

Home
Although there are indisputable economic benefits for both parties - migrants and the countries to which they migrate - questions of assimilation or integration of newcomers into a strange culture often lead to multiple social and political problems. In the case of Spain, however, three quarters of today's migrants to Spain come from Latin American and European countries with language and culture similar to that of Spain.

For Spain, migration is a relatively new phenomenon. For centuries, Spaniards used to migrate to other European countries and the Americas in search of a better life. For the first time in recent history, when Spain joined the European Economic Community in 1986, it had to have a policy on migration in line with EU regulations. The law passed in 1985, called the "Aliens Act", defines the procedure by which non-EU persons seeking employment and residence in Spain are dealt with. Migrants must obtain a work contract or work permit for a fixed period before they can enter and work legally in Spain. However, if the employer cancels or terminates the contract at any time, the migrant falls within the category of illegal resident.

To alleviate the problem of the illegal situation of a large number of people settled in Spain, who may have been in and out of work for a relatively long time, the government resorted to amnesty for illegal workers at several points in time in my past. A new law passed in 1996 allowed migrants who had lived in Spain for at least six years to obtain permanent work permits. All this was necessary because the Spanish economy grew into one of Europe's most prosperous economies. First of all,

it was poor migrants with no skills from Africa and former Eastern European countries who came to fill the highest and lowest paid jobs in agriculture, construction and industry. But as a modern, evolving economy grows, Spain increasingly requires a highly skilled workforce to keep pace with the world's competitive economies of the twenty-first century. According to the Financial Times (UK), Spain is the most preferred destination for Western Europeans considering moving from their country in search of jobs elsewhere. Since 2002, Spain has created half of the new jobs in the entire eurozone.
