If you're a student from Pakistan, you'll need the Study Visa to study in Spain. This visa is made specifically for students like you who are ready to begin their study abroad adventure in Spain. Find out the best information about the process of getting the Study Visa to decide if studying abroad in Spain is right for you.
Main steps to take for the Spanish student visa
Here is what Pakistani students have to do to get a student visa that will allow them to study in Spain:
After 90 days, the student must apply for a Foreigner Identity Card. You will need to complete an application form. Depending on how the Spanish authorities in India have regulated visa submission, you will have to submit the application form along with the necessary documents at the Spanish Embassy, a Spanish consulate or an embassy or consulate of another Schengen country to which Spain has outsourced visa submission.
Pakistani students will have to provide biometrics during the visa application process. Your biometrics are, basically, extra identification (e.g. fingerprinting and pictures) that countries use for security purposes.
You won't have to attend a visa interview during the application process.
The Study Visa from Spain is valid for up to 90 days. So that you can stay during your entire degree programme, you may need to renew your visa every year. If you want to stay in Spain after your degree is over, you will have to apply for a different visa, or a visa renewal through the immigration office.
How much will I have to pay for the student visa?
To apply for the Spanish Study Visa , you will also have to pay a fee of 80 EUR. Depending on your situation, Spanish authorities will allow you to pay this fee online, on location at a visa application centre in Pakistan, or through a bank transfer.
Pakistani students will need to get health insurance for the Spanish visa.
Which documents are required for my student visa?
When you apply for your visa, one of the most important things you need to prove is that you have enough money to support yourself during your study programme. you need proof of funds of 579 EUR per month
Pakistani students won't have to prove they speak English well enough to study in an international university in Spain. These language skills ensure that you can succeed in your classes and manage your way around Spain.
Pakistani students will need to take a medical test before arriving in Spain.
Pakistani students won't need to set up a Restricted Bank Account. This type of bank account restricts the amount of money you can withdraw every month, and only allows you to access it when you arrive in Spain.
The legal deadline to make a decision is 1 month from the day following the date of submission of the application, but this deadline may be extended when additional documents are requested or an interview is held.

Spain
Spain, the second-largest country in the European Union, and home to La Tomatina (that festival where you just throw tomatoes at each other), is a great international destination for students.
Spain is also one of the most prolific olive oil producers in the world and, besides this awesome fact, it also changed its street names to some of the world's most influential women, in 2016. That's why Spain is such a welcoming place for everyone who wishes to visit and study, especially for students looking to study Social Sciences and Business and Management, while chilling at the seaside.
