During the 2007-2011 period, Spain became the country's first bilateral donor along with Portugal.
The first Hispanic-Guinean Joint Commission took place in July 2007 in which Spain undertook to grant Guinea Bissau €15 million (between 2007-2009).
Although in the first three Master Plans (2001-2012) G-B has been listed as a priority country, in the IV Master Plan 2013-2016 it is considered as a country of departure due to criteria of effectiveness and quality of aid, as well as for budgetary reasons.

The topics defined as priorities are health, education, fisheries and water and sanitation.
It has been mentioned that, through the EU West Sahel project, there is always a Civil Guard officer in Bissau, who is renewed every 8 months, who cooperates with local law enforcement authorities in the tasks of organizing emigration services and borders.

In the commercial sphere, Spain was designated as a facilitating donor by Guinea Bissau within a program of the Enhanced Integrated Framework (MIM), in the WTO.
The cooperation program, endowed with more than $3 million, is intended to improve the country's commercial capabilities and, in particular, to the modernization of customs.
