Impact of health issues on Spain Non Lucrative Visa approval

Last Updated on March 18, 2026 by Bruno Bianchi

Question about the Spain non lucrative visa application

We are almost ready to book our Spain non lucrative visa appointment at Manchester, our insurances both have exclusions for cardiovascular disease? We have high Blood Pressure, and I have diabetes but all managed with medication and no issues, will this exclusion mean the Spain non lucrative visa will get rejected?

Answers

These are the answers of some Facebook group members:

”Your insurance provider should provide a certificate that confirms you are covered. This will be acceptable to the Consulate. The exclusions document will be between you and the insurance company”

”As long as you have insurance you will be fine”

Conclusion

In conclusion, according to Spainguru Facebook group members, the input suggests that for consulate purposes, the crucial factor is to have a certificate of insurance coverage, regardless of exclusions for specific conditions like cardiovascular disease. As long as you can show proof of insurance, the exclusions should not affect the acceptance of your Spain non lucrative visa application.
