Llei 2/2026 (Omnibus 2), in force 13 February 2026, raised the investment floor from EUR 600,000 to EUR 1,000,000 and made the AFA payment definitive and non-refundable (EUR 50,000 principal + EUR 12,000 per dependent), returned only if the initial authorisation is refused. Real-estate investments must put more than EUR 800,000 into each property unit. The Housing Fund route remains EUR 400,000. Income threshold: more than 300% of the annual minimum wage for the principal, plus 100% per dependent. From 1 July 2026 the monthly minimum wage is EUR 1,568.67 (Decret 253/2026), so the principal floor is about EUR 4,706/month or EUR 56,472/year (must exceed that). Official immigration delivery fee: EUR 3,000 principal / EUR 1,000 per dependent resident (govern.ad tarifes); renewal of residence without work is EUR 500. USD fields use ~1.1208 EUR/USD on 2026-10-09. Renewal cadence for non-treaty nationals: 2y, then 2y, then 3y, then successive 10y (path to long-term renewals after 7 years). French, Spanish and Portuguese nationals follow a bilateral 2y / 3y / 10y pattern. Citizenship by residence: 20 years (Llei 8/2026), Catalan B1 under 70, and renunciation of prior nationality (dual citizenship not allowed). Not Schengen; bilateral free-movement arrangements with France, Spain and Portugal. Passive residents are outside CASS and need private insurance. IRPF worldwide income, progressive to 10%; real-estate capital gains are taxed under IRPF (with holding-period relief). 2026 quota: 163 authorisations without lucrative activity (of 200 residence-without-work places). The e-tramits D.1 page still showed EUR 600,000 / EUR 47,500 as of this check; the BOPA law text, the updated Sol·licitud form (t2g024) and the 11 March 2026 Govern quota announcement control.
