What this document is

EX-01 (“Solicitud de autorización de residencia temporal no lucrativa”) is the official form to apply for a temporary residence permit in Spain without the right to work. It is for people who live on their own means — savings, a pension, income from assets — and have health insurance. The form is in Spanish and has three pages: two to fill in and one with instructions.

EX forms must be submitted in the official model: FoxDocs only types your values into the fields of the official PDF and does not change its layout.

Who files it and where

  • initial permit: a foreigner who wants to live in Spain without working — usually at the Spanish consulate in the country of residence together with the visa application;
  • a family member of the funds holder (spouse, children) — on a separate form, ticking “family member”; the funds holder’s details go in section 2;
  • renewal: the permit holder files electronically, via the Mercurio sede electrónica — within the two months before expiry or the three months after it;
  • you must prove sufficient funds for the whole period and health insurance (public or private) from an insurer authorised in Spain; the required amount is linked to the IPREM indicator and is updated;
  • the permit fee is paid with form 790 code 052, and the consulate charges a separate visa fee; check the amounts on the form or with the office;
  • section 3 is filled in if a representative files; the initial application at the consulate is filed in person (for a minor, by the legal representative).

What the form asks for

  • section 1: passport, NIE (if any), surnames, name, sex, date of birth (dd/mm/aaaa), place and country of birth, nationality, civil status, parents’ names, address in Spain, phone, e-mail, legal representative;
  • in the same section — whether you have dependent school-age children in Spain (yes / no);
  • section 2: the family member who holds the funds (if you apply as a family member): passport, NIE, names, sex, civil status, date and country of birth, parents, relationship;
  • section 3: representative for submitting; section 4: address for notifications and consent to electronic notifications via DEHú;
  • section 5: initial permit or renewal — as funds holder or as their family member;
  • place, date, signature and the office addressed (DIR3 code and province).

Documents usually brought along

  • the EX-01 form, original and a copy, filled in in capital letters;
  • the full passport, original and a copy;
  • proof of funds: bank statements, pension, income from assets;
  • health insurance (public or private) from an insurer authorised in Spain; check the policy requirements with the consulate;
  • for an initial permit usually a criminal record certificate and a medical certificate; for a family member — proof of the relationship;
  • the fee receipt; the exact list depends on the consulate or office — check in advance.

How to fill it in with FoxDocs

  1. Tell the chat in any language who you are, whether this is a first application or a renewal, and whose funds you will live on.
  2. The assistant fills the boxes in capital letters, splits dates into dd/mm/aaaa and the NIE into its boxes, and ticks the type of permit.
  3. Download the PDF, check it, print, sign it by hand and submit it with a copy and your documents.

Frequently asked questions

What is form EX-01 for?

For a temporary residence permit in Spain without the right to work (residencia no lucrativa) — initial or renewal.

Can I work with this permit?

No. It is for people who live on their own means. Working requires a different permit or a modification.

Where do I apply the first time?

Usually in person at the Spanish consulate in your country of residence, together with the visa application. Renewals are filed electronically via the Mercurio sede electrónica.

How much money do I need?

Per month: 400% of IPREM for the applicant and 100% of IPREM for each dependent family member. IPREM itself is updated, so check the current amount with the consulate.

How do I apply for my spouse and children?

Each family member files their own EX-01, ticking “family member of the funds holder”, with the holder’s details in section 2.

Can I submit a form filled in on a computer?

Yes, EX forms are submitted in the official model. FoxDocs types your data into the fields of the official PDF without changing the layout; you sign by hand.

When do I apply for renewal?

Within the two months before the permit expires or the three months after; filing after expiry may lead to a penalty procedure. A timely application extends the old permit until the decision.
