Spain's Large Business Unit to now accept only digital signatures for work and residence permit applications

Spanish companies that submit (initial) work and residence permit applications to the Large Business Unit (LBU) on behalf of their employees must now provide digital signatures only. Previously, both physical and digital signatures were accepted. The new change is expected to streamline the work and residence permit application process by eliminating the wet signature requirement.

A Tax Alert prepared by EY's People Advisory Services group, and attached below, provides additional details.
