Immigration law is the special branch of the legal system that regulates the rights and obligations of persons who are in a State other than their own.<\/p>\n

The Spanish Constitution, in its Chapter I, regulates the Rights and Freedoms that foreigners have in Spanish territory. Among the most important rights we find are the right to freedom of movement and choice of residence, the right to documentation, the right to public participation, the right to effective judicial protection and the social and labor rights.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n

One of the greatest demands by non-national foreigners, within the immigration law, is to obtain Spanish nationality.<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n
\n

At Corujo & Jim\u00e9nez Abogados <\/strong>we can expedite the process through the General Council of Spanish Lawyers. As your voluntary representative, we will take care of the whole procedure.<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

It is the legal bond that unites the person with the State and gives him\/her the status of citizen of the country. By virtue of it, the individual enjoys certain rights (equality before the law, religious or ideological freedom, the right to life and physical integrity, the right to education and work...) which he can demand from the state organization to which he\/she belongs and which, in return, can impose on him the fulfillment of a series of obligations and duties (contribution to public expenditure, duty to help, duty to work...).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n

Article 15 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights establishes the right of everyone to a nationality, and not to be arbitrarily deprived of his nationality or the right to change it.<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n
\n

Nationality is a fundamental element in the life of the individual, insofar as it allows him to belong to a group, to identify with it and, at the same time, grants him the protection of the State and the possibility of exercising his rights in accordance with its legal norms. It is ultimately the highest legal expression of the integration of a person in a state community.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

How is nationality obtained?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
<\/div><\/div>\n\n

There are several ways, among which we highlight:<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n

By origin.<\/h4><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\ue074<\/span><\/span><\/div>

By residence.<\/h4><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n
\n

The most common is obtaining by residence, which implies being a citizen of the European Union, opening the doors to all the countries that form it as well as those that do not need a visa. In which a series of requirements must be fulfilled.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n

In order to obtain the nationality it is necessary to carry out a series of procedures that are conditioned to the fulfillment of a series of requirements and procedures<\/strong>, sometimes complicated, that advise to go to a specialized professional office, for a close and individualized advice. Contact our office. We will clear all your doubts.<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n
\n

Among the requirements, broadly speaking, we can find the fulfillment of the required period of legal residence, the completion of the Spanish Nationality exams, the lack of a criminal record, the obligation to provide valid documents and not to spend a long time outside Spain during the nationality process.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
