A New Home for Our Community on WhatsApp - LAKBYTE

For the past two years, we’ve had the privilege of guiding over 495 clients to their new lives in Spain and watching a vibrant community grow around the shared dream of moving to Spain. We’ve seen firsthand that the most valuable support often comes from connecting with others who are on the exact same journey.

Today, we give that community a brand new home. We are officially launching “Visas to Spain (by Lakbyte)“, our new ecosystem of WhatsApp chats designed for one simple purpose: for all of us to connect, share, and hang out together.

Our goal is to facilitate a space where you can find peer support, share real-world experiences, and build lasting friendships.
