Following the approval of Royal Decree 316/2026 amending the Immigration Law, the government published questions and answers related to the procedure to request regularisation, including the timeline and requirements.
Applicants for international protection can apply for regularisation if they lodged an asylum application before 1 January 2026. Beneficiaries will receive a 1-year residence permit that will allow them to work in the country.
