Your bank wrote the letter. Let me read it first.
Branch staff write these letters every day, but rarely for a Spanish visa, and the usual draft misses the one figure the office looks for. Paste it below. Your browser gives you a first read at once, and I read it myself and reply within 24 hours with what to ask the bank to change.
What I check
For the Non-Lucrative Visa
- A signed letter on the bank’s letterhead, one for each account you rely on.
- The date the account was opened.
- The average balance over the last twelve months, and the balance on 31 December of last year.
- That the totals reach the line for your household, in euros, with room for the exchange rate.
- That it is recent. Ask for it in the last weeks before your appointment. It goes with a sworn translation.
For the Digital Nomad Visa
- A bank certificate, stamped or signed, not a printout of statements.
- The three months before filing, with each salary or client payment marked one by one.
- That the payments match your contract and your payslips or invoices.
- Your name and the full account number, as on the rest of the file. It needs no translation.

Check your numbers first with the Non-Lucrative calculator or the income checker, then ask the bank.
