Yes.

One word says it all. Snowflake heaven. I'd get legal opinion from a firm specialising in European legislation, preferably with a branch or established connections in Spain.

'Give me your tired, your poor.. Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.....'


 These words sound brilliant.. and if a country has the room and the funds to carry these words out then so be it..


I think it is all very sad.. BUT we are becoming the poor, the sick..

This link might help the original poster. If the answer isn't there, just ask the question. You find most countries have expat forums.

You can get your pension in Spain and it is index linked .
It’s only common wealth countries where it’s not index linked .
However now there is Brexit I don’t know .
It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

I cannot actually see why there is any confusion:

If you pay pension contributions (either as a skim of income from work, or as voluntary payments) in an country
you should, once you have reached the required level of payments, and reached whatever happens to be the pensionable
age in that country, be eligible for a pension.

If you have not contributed any pension contributions: well scr*w you, what are you expecting? Money for old rope?

I have been contributing type 2 pension payments in the UK for something to the order of 35 years while living outwith
the UK for about 28 of those years, I have been paying the lowest tier of pension contributions in Bulgaria (where I byde and work)
for about 17 years. This emans that when (if ?) I reach 67 (pensinable age for men in both states) I should recieve a full
pension from the UK (or any successor states [err, independent Scotland ?]), and a bottom level pension in Bulgaria.

What DOES annoy me enormously is people who are, frankly, parasitic, and expect to recieve pensions just because they happen
to be citizens of some state, yet have contributed nothing to that state's pension system.
