The good news is, once you gain residency rights in Spain, you will have the right to reside in any other country in the EU. So, first apply for residency in any EU country if and where you have relatives or ancestors. This is the quickest and easiest way to your goal of residency in Spain.
No relatives or ancestors? Then, you need a visa, if you wish to stay in Spain for more than three months. (please read our help seciton on applying for a visa).
*N.B. If you are not the spouse of an EU citizen, and wish to obtain a residency in Spain, you have 30-90 days to find a company willing to sponsor you.
