Spain has become one of the most popular destinations for Americans looking to live abroad. But moving to Spain involves much more than choosing a city and applying for a visa.

In this episode of Passport To Wealth™, Arielle Tucker, CFP®, EA, speaks with Carlos Lorenzo, J.D., LL.M., a Spain-based immigration and tax lawyer and founder of American Legal Spain. Carlos works closely with Americans planning a move to Spain, helping them navigate immigration law, tax planning, and long-term residency strategies.

They discuss the most common visa pathways for Americans, how Spain’s tax system differs from the US, and why pre-planning is essential before relocating.
