España: La nacionalidad simplificada para los descendientes de exiliados finaliza en octubre de 2025

The Spanish government's Democratic Memory Law, enacted in 2021, offers a simplified path to Spanish citizenship for descendants of exiles from the Spanish Civil War and Franco's dictatorship.

The law creates a convenient pathway to working and living in Spain for eligible individuals. It may present an opportunity for businesses looking to hire foreign talent in Spain by offering an interesting alternative to work visas.

Applications under this law are currently accepted until October 21, 2025.

Who is eligible?

🔵 Descendants of Spanish individuals who were exiled for political, ideological, or belief reasons, including sexual orientation and identity.

🔵 Children born abroad to Spanish women who lost their nationality by marrying foreigners before 1978.

🔵 Adult children of Spaniards who regained nationality under the Memory Laws.

🔵 Individuals who obtained Spanish nationality under the Memory Laws and wish to adjust their status to "nationality of origin."

Jobbatical encourages companies in Spain to identify, connect, and motivate potential candidates who may benefit from this program to explore the opportunity before the deadline of October 21, 2025.
