Anyone staying in Spain for more than 90 days must register as a resident - which means registering with the police and with the local authorities; (For those from non-EU countries, including the UK, this will also involve setting up a bank account in Spain with a minimum balance of 7,000 Euros for the previous three months; proof of annual income; health insurance; and various police clearances.) Each of these involve some initial contact by e-mail and through the relevant website, and then at least two visits in person to the appropriate office. This must be done during the first three months in Spain and would clearly interfere seriously with any retreat. It would also involve the community with what, in our experience, can be very extensive extra work with many journeys to the coast. These processes seldom run smoothly. So, for non-residents, unless it is possible to register as a resident before starting a retreat we regret that we cannot offer any retreats of longer than 12 weeks; and we are unable to offer any help - other than advice - on immigration issues.
