🌞 Why Move to the Canary Islands?
The Canary Islands offer one of Europe’s best climates and most tax-friendly zones:
-
☀️ Subtropical weather year-round
-
🏝️ Beach lifestyle and slow pace of life
-
💶 Lower cost of living than mainland Spain
-
📶 Digital infrastructure ideal for remote workers
-
🏥 Good healthcare and international schools

But moving here legally means working through Spain’s complex immigration process — especially for non-EU citizens. That’s where we come in.

I am a Canadian. My boyfriend is Albanian. We are not married, but we have had a relationship for the past few years. I’ve been to Albania to visit him twice and we have a relationship where we message each other every day talk on the phone, etc..
We are wanting to purchase a music bar in the Canary Islands the businesses that we have been looking at our lease old we would both want to work at the business and would probably hire one vanish employee. We will be living together in Spain. What is the best route to do this? .
I’ve seen that there is an entrepreneurial visa self-employment visa to bring my boyfriend what would be the best way if I’m applying for either the entrepreneurial or the self-employment visa would I be able to bring him as a non-married partner and I sponsor him with just a work, visa what is the best and fastest way?
Also, what would the cost be to have you handle this type of application?? I am in the process of selling my home in Canada and I will be using some of these funds to invest in a business in Spain although I would be looking to start this process in about a month or two
