What’s Included
Everything your Spain student visa application needs — in one service
Applying for a Spain student visa involves more moving parts than most people expect. Our student visa service covers every step end-to-end, so nothing gets missed and your application reaches the consulate in the best possible shape.
Free eligibility check
Before you pay anything, we review your course, institution, nationality, and financial situation. If there are any issues with your eligibility or documentation, we identify them now — not after submission.
Free · No commitmentPersonalised document checklist
Every student visa application is different. Your nationality, your consulate, and your institution all affect what’s required. We send you a tailored checklist via your dashboard so you collect exactly the right documents — nothing more, nothing less.
Sent within 24 hoursApplication form preparation
We complete the EX-00 visa application form and all supporting declarations on your behalf. Spanish immigration forms are completed in Spanish with precise legal wording — a common source of avoidable errors in self-prepared applications.
Drafted by a lawyerOfficial sworn translations
All non-Spanish documents must be accompanied by an official sworn translation (traducción jurada). We prepare and certify these translations through our in-house team. Sworn translations are included in Stage 2 of our fee and are worth approximately €75.
Worth €75 · IncludedApostille coordination
Documents like criminal record certificates and civil status documents typically need to be apostilled in your home country. We tell you exactly what to apostille, where to go, and how to do it — and we review everything before it goes to the consulate.
Step-by-step guidanceHealth insurance arranged
Spain’s student visa requires private health insurance with no co-payments and no deductibles. We connect you with our partner network (spanish-healthinsurance.com) to source a compliant student policy accepted at all Spanish consulates.
Consulate-accepted policiesConsulate submission
Once your application pack is complete and reviewed by our legal team, it is submitted to the correct Spanish consulate in your home country. We handle all correspondence with the consulate and respond promptly to any additional requests for information.
Lawyer-reviewedPost-approval guidance
After your visa is approved, we guide you through the next steps in Spain: collecting your visa, registering your arrival (empadronamiento), and applying for your TIE residence card within the mandatory 30-day window.

Why our student visa service exists — and why it matters
The Spain student visa is not a complex visa — but it is an unforgiving one. Consulates apply strict requirements, and the most common reason for refusal is not missing eligibility criteria but missing or incorrectly prepared documentation. Our student visa service exists to eliminate that risk.
- Consulate requirements vary by country. The US consulate in Los Angeles has different standards from the UK consulate in London. We know the requirements for every consulate our clients use.
- Sworn translations must be certified correctly. A translation prepared by an uncertified translator is grounds for rejection. All our translations are official sworn translations (traducción jurada) prepared by qualified translators registered in Spain.
- Financial proof must meet IPREM thresholds. The consulate expects bank statements that demonstrate you have sufficient funds to cover your stay — typically calculated using Spain’s IPREM index. We tell you the exact figure and how to present it.
- Criminal records must be recent and apostilled. Police certificates older than 3 months are rejected. Certificates that haven’t been apostilled by the relevant authority in your country are rejected. We handle all of this.
- Health insurance must meet exact consulate specifications. Not all private health policies are accepted. We connect you with policies that have been accepted by Spanish consulates across every country we work in.
- Processing time is not in your favour. With consulate processing taking 4–8 weeks after submission, any error that forces you to restart costs time you likely cannot afford. Getting it right first time is the whole point of our service.

Frequently Asked
Questions about our Spain student visa service
What does your Spain student visa service include?
Our service covers everything from eligibility check to post-approval guidance: personalised document checklist, application form preparation in Spanish, official sworn translations (included in Stage 2, worth €75), apostille guidance, health insurance referral, full consulate submission, and arrival guidance in Spain including TIE card registration. Everything is managed through a secure 24/7 online dashboard.
Do I need a lawyer to apply for a Spain student visa?
You are not legally required to use a lawyer, but the Spain student visa application involves official sworn translations, apostilled documents, and strict consulate requirements that vary by country. The most common reason for refusal is documentation errors — not missing eligibility. Using a qualified Spanish immigration lawyer significantly reduces this risk and ensures your application is submitted correctly the first time.
How much does your Spain student visa application service cost?
Our total service fee is €799, paid in two stages: €300 to start, then €499 once your visa is approved. You do not pay the second stage unless your visa is approved. Official sworn translations (worth approximately €75) are included in Stage 2. Family members can be added at a discounted rate — contact us for details.
Can I apply for a Spain student visa online?
Yes — our entire service runs through a secure online client dashboard available 24/7. You upload your documents, communicate with your case manager, and track your application progress from anywhere in the world. The final application is submitted to the consulate on your behalf by our legal team. You will need to attend the consulate in person to collect your visa once approved.
How long does the Spain student visa application process take?
Once your complete application is submitted to the consulate, processing typically takes 4 to 8 weeks depending on the consulate. Document preparation with our team usually takes 2 to 4 weeks depending on how quickly your documents are gathered. We recommend starting the process at least 3 months before your course start date.
Which nationalities do you help with the Spain student visa?
We specialise in applications from the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Ireland, South Africa, and New Zealand. We are familiar with the specific requirements and processing times for every consulate in these countries. We can also assist applicants from other non-EU countries — contact us to confirm your eligibility and consulate requirements.
Can my family apply with me for the Spain student visa?
Yes. Spouses, registered partners, and dependent children can apply as accompanying family members alongside the main student applicant. We can manage the family member applications through the same dashboard. Contact us for family pricing — discounts are available for multiple applicants from the same household.
What is the difference between this service and applying directly?
When you apply directly, you are responsible for identifying the correct requirements for your specific consulate, preparing all forms in correct Spanish legal format, sourcing compliant sworn translations, and managing all consulate correspondence. Errors typically result in rejection or significant delays. Our service removes all of that burden, applies legal expertise to every document, and gives you a case manager to guide you throughout. For most applicants, the time saved and the risk reduction justify the service fee.
