Hey

I / we are looking to move to Spain (Valencia maybe) in Sep/Dec 2007. So have literally just started looking into things. Was just wondering do I need a work visa as I am British (so E.U) and am married to a Spaniard?

I am a qualified teacher and am hoping to work in an International School teaching maths if all goes well!

Thanks
C

No work visa required. EU members can relocate to Spain and work in the system. You will need NIE - for tax purposes. If you work in the system no residencia card required but is beneficial in terms of easy ID etc but as you are married to a Spaniard it might be different. Suggest more web research re jobs etc. Good luck.
