Time spent legally on an EU Blue Card counts toward long-term residence, and the scheme allows you to combine periods in different EU countries toward EU long-term resident status.
Holding an EU Blue Card and renewing it builds up continuous legal residence, which is the basis for applying for long-term residence in Spain once you meet the required period and conditions.
A distinctive advantage of the Blue Card is that, under EU rules, periods of legal residence as a Blue Card holder in different member states can be combined toward EU long-term resident status. Maintaining qualifying employment, salary levels, and clean documentation throughout is what makes this pathway work.
