Questions
Common questions
Do you work with businesses in Barcelona?
Yes, remotely from Albania. Same time zone as Albania. Working-hour overlap is the practical thing to check before scoping anything time-sensitive.
Which sectors in Barcelona do you work with?
Technology and startups, tourism and hospitality, design and architecture, mobile and telecommunications, and a strong international education sector.
What do people get wrong about marketing in Barcelona?
Catalan is co-official and carries real cultural and political weight. A Barcelona campaign that uses only Castilian is making a choice, and local audiences read it as one.
What advertising rules apply in Barcelona?
Advertising rules, data protection and invoicing are national rather than local. AUTOCONTROL administers advertising self-regulation, working alongside the Ley General de Publicidad and the Ley de Competencia Desleal. Spain adopted a specific code of conduct on the use of influencers in advertising, and the audiovisual law brought certain high-reach creators into a regulated category with obligations closer to broadcasters than to individuals.
How does invoicing work for a Barcelona client?
Standard EU reverse charge for B2B with the NIF-IVA verified through VIES. Spain has been introducing structured invoicing obligations for domestic B2B transactions, which affects locally established entities rather than cross-border supply.
