We handle your estancia por estudios authorisation (bachelor's and master's degrees, vocational training, language courses), academic mobility (Erasmus+) or volunteering placements. A DOCTORATE does not belong here: since Criterio de Gestión 2/2026 it goes through the research residence of Ley 14/2013 before the UGE-CE, and the consulate will not accept a student visa application from a PhD candidate. We check that the institution is recognised, your financial means (100 % of the IPREM (public income indicator) for yourself, 75 % for the first family member and 50 % for each additional family member), your health insurance and your apostilled criminal record certificates from the countries where you have lived over the last 5 years (for those above the age of criminal responsibility, where the stay is longer than 6 months). Decision: visa 1 month; authorisation 7 days from abroad, 2 months from within Spain, or 15 days if your higher-education institution files it; silence means refusal. It allows you to work up to 30 hours a week alongside your studies; higher education entitles you to work automatically.

Prerequisites we also handle for you

This procedure needs documents that we also obtain. If you are missing any, ask us for it here and come back once you have it:

And whatever a third party provides, we arrange it

  • Traducción jurada (sworn translation) into Spanish
  • Apostilla or legalisation of a foreign document
  • Medical or psychometric examination at an authorised centre

You do not have to look for anyone: we coordinate it. As it is provided by a third party it is quoted separately and does not go inside the price of this procedure, and we tell you the amount before ordering it.

Legal basis and things to bear in mind

  • For higher education the authorisation matches the official length of your studies; for vocational training and post-compulsory secondary education, pupil mobility and volunteering it lasts a maximum of one year and is extended year by year (art. 55.1 RD 1155/2024). We file the extension for you.
  • If you are going to do a DOCTORATE, this is not your procedure: Criterio de Gestión 2/2026, of 7 August 2026, moves it to the research residence of art. 72 of Ley 14/2013 before the UGE-CE, and the consulate will not accept your student visa application even if you have a grant. We handle that procedure for you too.
  • You will be able to work up to 30 hours a week alongside your studies; with higher education, work is authorised automatically.
  • If you later want a full-time job, you have to switch to a residence and work authorisation, which we also handle for you.
