Flag of Spain

In this episode of our Cross-Border Catch-Up podcast series, Shirin Aboujawde (New York) and Patty Shapiro (San Diego) discuss Spain’s new Royal Decree 1155/2024, which clarifies when non-European Union (EU) nationals holding a valid work permit in another EU member state can perform short-term, project-based work in Spain without securing a separate Spanish permit. The speakers explain the criteria for posted workers, outline the visa and residence requirements for assignments lasting up to 180 days, and offer practical takeaways for global employers managing cross-border deployments.
